During the afternoon lecture, we talked about DNA and cloning. I’m always debating on whether cloning is a positive or negative thing to humankind. It seems that there is always a great possibility that human will manipulate the use of new science discovery/technology to create greater damage to the world.

The lecture also reminds me of a movie about a mother who cloned her son after he passed away. However, the cloned son turned out to have a completely opposite personality and constantly felt pressured as a replacement. Ashivia also said that people tried to clone from the dead, which made me think about the clone of dinosaur DNA from the movie “Jurassic Park”. I wonder if it is possible for DNA to last for thousands of years and still be effective to use for cloning?
