Cloning is the process of creating a copy of a plant or animal that is genetically identical to the original. ... The second is reproductive cloning and the third is therapeutic cloning. ... Reproductive cloning is a technique, which is intended to produce a duplicate of an existing animal. ... The stem cells are removed from the pre-embryo, producing tissue or a whole organ for a transplant back into the person who supplied the DNA. The goal of therapeutic cloning is to produce healthy copy of sick person tissue or organ from transplant. ...
