Cloning involves a lot of risks. I will state a few of them -

It has a high failure rate.
The clones are generally not competitive enough as compared to natural beings, they are usually weaker.
They may express abnormally. That is for example if a sheep is cloned it may not have the characteristic of producing wool.

How do you know this?. :blink:

Medical science still need to be developed to have better clones what I feel is cloning would be bad for this world as in that case man would become like a machine. :)

I heard that the babies born through test tubes won't have any kind of feelings as we have towards our parents

I am a biotechnology student and we are very much concerned with the ethics associated with the field. I posted this thread as I wanted to know what people think about the field and the breakthroughs it has bought about. :dry:

Due to decreasing the power in them they are showing intrest towards the test tube babies which are at high cost.

I didn't get you exactly. Having a test tube baby may be costly but the technique has proved to be a boom for mankind.

Ha this also has many disadvantages also. Even a girl who is not married also can have a test tube baby.
