Verified

Cloning refers to process of making an organism which is genetically identical to other by the means of genetic engineering.

The basis of cloning includes the nucleus transplantation technology. A nucleus from the cell is extracted, generally from an embryonic cell and this nucleus is inserted into the previously enucleated reproductive cell; the egg is then implanted within the organ in which the embryonic development will take place. If the embryonic development takes place the new organism will have the similar genetic patrimony to organism owner of cell whose nucleus was used within the transplantation.
