This means the cloned animal is an exact duplicate in every way of its parent; it has the same exact DNA (Gogoi,2007).

__**Points for Animal cloning**__ On the favorable side with successful animal cloning - particularly cloning from an adult animal - you know exactly how your clone is going to turn out. This becomes especially useful when the whole intention behind cloning is to save a certain endangered species from becoming totally extinct (Buzz.com,2009).

 Cloning experiments may add to the understanding of **__genetic __**and lead to the creation of animal organs that can be easily accepted by humans. This would supply limitless organs to those in need. The growth of the human morula is similar to the growth at which cancer cells propagate. If information derived from cloning research allows scientists to stop the division of the human ovum, a technique for terminating cancer may be found (Kayvon Fatahalian,1998).

Cloning could provide spare parts. **Fertilized** ova could be cloned into several zygotes, one would be implanted and the others would be frozen for future use (Kayvon Fatahalian,1998).

A**new cloning technique** has recently been developed which is far more reliable. However, even this technique has 2-3% success rate (Kayvon Fatahalian,1998).
