Article Posted on Thursday January 25th, 2018
By Jen Christensen I found this article about these scientists that cloned a monkey in shenghai, China and they used the same technique as dolly the sheep in 1996. They named the two monkeys hua hua and zhong zhong. They are two long-tailed macaques,. The article talks about how they used somatic cell transfer which is where they remove the eggs neucules - Which is where the egg contains most of its genetic information- and then replace it with another neucules. I wonder what will happen with the monkeys when they grow up. Like where will they live and what will be the purpose of cloning monkeys in the future? I can see the purpose with animals that we eat or with near extinct animals but I don't see the purpose for cloning monkeys in the future. Why do you think that the Purpose of cloning in the future? I think that it could be used to do something from star wars and create the perfect army. And I will comment on Savannah and Hennas blogs.
