===WOULD YOU CLONE YOURSELF ** Cloning many people think this can’t be done but they don’t know that this was already done. A sheep was cloned a few years ago this sheep was called Dolly because this baby sheep was an identical copy of a grown-up sheep from which the cell was taken from. This means that if you wanted to you could clone yourself.I would not clone myself because even though there a good benefits there are also consequences. ** ** Cloning myself would be a bad idea there can be very bad consequences. The cloned sheep Dolly died very young she had arthritis and lung cancer. (That is very common in sheep.) At the age of six. Dolly was not the first animal that was cloned. Animals like salamanders, cow, goats,dogs,and cats were also cloned.This animals just like dolly the sheep also were also had a higher then normal rate of diseases and deformaities. There are benefits to cloning yourself for example you could send your clone to school and you could stay home another example is if you want to go somewhere and your parents don’t let you could leave your clone in you place. There are people that would clone thereself but I would not clone myself not matter how fun it sound. ** ** In conclusion you can see that there are many. reasons why cloning can have many benefits. Cloning can also have many consequences like the clones having diseases or die very soon just like Dolly the sheep. I would never clone myself. Would you clone you ever clone yourself if you had the chance **===
