Ex. 1: asexual reproduction in bacteria
some plants and single-celled organisms, such as bacteria, produce genetically identical offspring through a process called asexual reproduction

Ex. 2: Identical Twins
Identical twins are the result of a single fertilized egg splitting into two separate embryos. Since identical twins come from the same fertilized egg, they have the exact same DNA. They are always of the same sex and they have the same blood type.

Artificial Cloning
Process that involves removing the DNA from one organism and putting it into an empty egg of another organism and then implanting it into a third organism.
The clone will be identical to the first organism that donated the DNA
