known to have this property? Why are teams of scientists keen to investigate
cloning in pigs? Which functional organ has recently been claimed to
have been grown from stem cells? What is reported as a problem with attempts to
clone monkey embryos by nuclear transfer? Read the cloning FAQ and then describe how genetic
engineering could be combined with cloning to
dramatically improve livestock for food production.
