■Warming up by looking and saying
Hello, class. Look at this photo. What is it? Wang Lin, could you tell the class someth ing about this photo? It is the photo of Dolly the sheep (1996-xx).
Dolly the sheep became a scientific sensation when her birth was announced in 1997. Her
relatively early death in February xx fuels the debate about the ethics of cloning research and
the Iong-term health of ciones.
What is it about Dolly that is so special? How was she created? And did she die young because
she was a clone? That is what we are going to lear n this week. Clo ning! This is the topic this
week!
What is “ Cloning ”？
Cloning is the process of creati ng an ide ntical copy of an orig in al. A clone in the biological
sen se, therefore, is a sin gle cell (like bacteria, lymphocytes etc.) or multi-cellular organism
that is genetically identical to another living organism. Sometimes this can refer to "natural" clones made either when an orga nism reproduces asexually or whe n two gen etically ide ntical in dividuals are produced by accide nt (as with identical twins), but in mon parlance the clone is an identical copy by some conscious design. Also see clone (gen etics).
The term clone is derived from K入®v , the Greek word for "twig". I n horticulture, the spelli ng cion was used un til
the twen tieth cen tury; the final e came into use to in dicate the vowel is a "lo ng o" in stead of a "short o". Si nce the term en tered the popular lexic on in a more gen eral con text, the spelli ng clone has bee n used exclusively.
