Question

Human cloning is banned throughout the world. Explain the reason for it.

Answer 1

Human cloning is banned across the world because of the following reasons:

1. It is never ethical to sacrifice one human life to get the potential cells for cloning for the real or potential benefit of others.
   
2. Research cloning will undoubtedly lead to a new exploitation of women. In order to manufacture enough cloned embryos to create a sufficient number of viable stem cell lines, scientists will need to obtain massive quantities of women's eggs. To do so, women must be injected with super ovulatory drugs and undergo an invasive procedure.
   
3. It will create a chaos wherein, people would chose to go for scientifically designed cloned babies and this would eliminate the component of genetic variability.
