There are three different types of cloning. First there is Embryo cloning, where you are adding a cell from an embryo and replacing it into another fertilized egg, making either twins or triplets ("Human" 1). This practice has been done on many various animals but has scarcely been performed on humans. Next there is Adult DNA cloning; this is the most common type of cloning that is thought of because it shows a clone that was made from another living organism and looks exactly the same("Human" 1). Finally there is probably the most helpful and useful type of cloning, which is Therapeutic Cloning; this involves not the creation of an entirely new human being but the organs, tissues, and cells that go to make and cure us as well ("Human" 1) .
