| Answer» C. Therapeutics | |
| Explanation: Human cloning is the creation of a genetically identical copy of a human. It does not refer to monozygotic multiple births or the reproduction of humans/animals cells or tissue. There  are  two  commonly  discussed  types  of human    cloning:    therapeutic    cloning    and reproductive    cloning.    Therapeutic    cloning involves cloning cells from an adult for use in medicine and transplants, and is an active area of research.  Reproductive  cloning  would  involve making cloned humans, for couples wanting to have a child, but cannot naturally. | |
