CloningThe
technique of producing a genetically identical duplicate of an organism. A clone
is said to be all descendants derived asexually from a single individual.
It involves the process of taking the nucleus of a somatic cell and injecting it
into enucleated egg. The egg is then implanted into the uterus to grow.
Also see SCNT (somatic cell nuclear transfer).
