Implications of Human Cloning

[Order Now]

For this week’s environmental controversy, we look at the issue of cloning. Using the references below along with resources from your own research, write a 1-2 page response to the questions posed to you. Remember to cite your sources using APA.

Background Information

The implications of human cloning for spare parts are discussed in your textbook as part of this week’s reading. Opposition to emerging human cloning technologies often depends on whether an entire human being will eventually be cloned or just certain body parts.

Most people would strongly oppose the cloning of entire human beings just so they can be harvested for spare body parts. Furthermore, some environmentalists worry that just the cloning of human body parts would indefinitely extend the lives of countless individuals and worsen the problems associated with overpopulation.

Some argue that technologies could eventually be developed that would allow for the cloning of only individual organs or body parts without creating embryos, fetuses, or other entities that could be viewed as distinct persons. Cloning advocates argue that the medical benefits for diabetics, cancer victims, heart patients, and other sick individuals would be enormous.

The context and relevance of the issue, as well as a clear description of the study aim, are presented. The history of searches is discussed.

Methodology

58-53 points

With titles for each slide as well as bulleted sections to group relevant information as required, the content is well-organized. Excellent use of typeface, color, images, effects, and so on to improve readability and presenting content. The minimum length criterion of 10 slides/pages is reached.

Average Score

50-85%

40-38 points

More depth/information is required for the context and importance, otherwise the study detail will be unclear. There is no search history information supplied.

83-76 points

There is a review of important theoretical literature, however there is limited integration of research into problem-related ideas. The review is just partly focused and arranged. There is research that both supports and opposes. A summary of the material given is provided. The conclusion may or may not include a biblical integration.

52-49 points

The content is somewhat ordered, but there is no discernible organization. The use of typeface, color, graphics, effects, and so on may sometimes distract from the presenting substance. It is possible that the length criteria will not be reached.

Poor Quality

0-45%

37-1 points

The context and/or importance are lacking. There is no search history information supplied.

75-1 points

There has been an examination of relevant theoretical literature, but still no research concerning problem-related concepts has been synthesized. The review is just somewhat focused and organized. The provided overview of content does not include any supporting or opposing research. The conclusion has no scriptural references.

48-1 points

There is no logical or apparent organizational structure. There is no discernible logical sequence. The use of typeface, color, graphics, effects, and so on often detracts from the presenting substance. It is possible that the length criteria will not be reached.
