The video explores the concept of human cloning, comparing it to identical twins, who are natural clones. It discusses the role of genetics and epigenetics in creating differences even among clones. The video also covers cloning in agriculture and animals, including efforts to revive extinct species. It delves into genetic engineering, highlighting tools like CRISPR for gene editing and the ethical implications of such technologies. The video concludes with a discussion on the legal and ethical challenges of genetic manipulation in humans.

What is the primary reason identical twins are not completely identical?

• They have different parents.

• They live in different environments.

• They are born at different times.

• They undergo random genetic mutations.

Which of the following is an example of a cloned animal?

• A lab-grown plant

• Dolly the Sheep

• A genetically modified mouse

• A naturally born kitten

What tool is used for gene editing to create designer babies?

• RNA Synthesizer

• DNA Sequencer

• CRISPR

• Gene Splicer

What is the purpose of swapping mitochondria in fertilized eggs?

• To increase intelligence

• To change the baby's gender

• To prevent certain genetic diseases

• To enhance physical traits

What is a potential benefit of genetic engineering mentioned in the video?

• Creating new species

• Increasing human lifespan

• Eliminating all diseases

• Customizing traits in offspring

Why is it challenging to test genetic modification technologies on humans?

• No interest from scientists

• Lack of funding

• Ethical and safety concerns

• Insufficient technology

In the United States, what type of DNA can be patented?

• Synthetic DNA

• Naturally occurring DNA

• No DNA can be patented

• All types of DNA
