Cloning | Definition, Process, & Types | Britannica
Cloning, the process of generating a genetically identical copy of a cell or an organism. Cloning happens often in nature, as when a cell replicates itself asexually without genetic alteration or recombination.

Cloning - Wikipedia
Cloning is the process of producing individual organisms with identical genomes, either by natural or artificial means. In nature, some organisms produce clones through asexual reproduction; this reproduction of an organism by itself without a mate is known as parthenogenesis.

Cloning Fact Sheet - National Human Genome Research Institute
The term cloning describes a number of different processes that can be used to produce genetically identical copies of a biological entity. The copied material, which has the same genetic makeup as the original, is referred to as a clone.

Cloning - National Geographic Society
Cloning is a technique scientists use to create exact genetic replicas of genes, cells, or animals. Two Beagle puppies successfully cloned in Seoul, South Korea. These two dogs were cloned by a biopharmaceutical company that specializes in stem cell based therapeutics.

The Pros & Cons Of Cloning - Sciencing
While the purpose of cloning is to create an exact replica — cloning a human that appears identical to the original — it raises the questions as to whether the cloned human is an individual separate from the original and is due the same rights as any other human.

How does cloning work? - Live Science
The how and why of cloning really depends on what is being cloned. There are three main types of cloning: Gene cloning, reproductive cloning and therapeutic cloning.

What is Cloning - University of Utah
Clones are organisms that are exact genetic copies. Every single bit of their DNA is identical. Clones can happen naturally—identical twins are just one of many examples. Or they can be made in the lab. Below, find out how natural identical twins are similar to and different from clones made through modern cloning technologies. How Is Cloning Done?

DNA Cloning: Principle, Steps, Components, Methods, Uses
DNA cloning is a method used to produce multiple identical copies of a DNA fragment within a cell. DNA cloning is also known as gene cloning or molecular cloning.

Cloning: Types, Technique, Animals and More - ThoughtCo
Cloning involves making identical copies of genes, cells, or whole organisms through various methods. Reproductive cloning is done using somatic cell nuclear transfer to create cloned animals like sheep. Ethical concerns about cloning focus on low success rates and the destruction of cloned embryos.

Cloning - Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy
Strictly speaking, cloning is the creation of a genetic copy of a sequence of DNA or of the entire genome of an organism. In the latter sense, cloning occurs naturally in the birth of identical twins and other multiples.
