: for example, if you want to clone frogs, arrange for a male and female to meet
: in water, play little romantic music (Mozart)and wait. If you properly set up
: your experiment, after awhile, you will have many clones (frogs).
: First try this, the next time I will give you the protocol for cells or genes
: if really you are interested.
Hang on a minute there, I was under the impression that clones were genetically
identical. That is certainly the way the term was used when I did genetics
last year. What you have described is sexual reproduction which does NOT
produce identical offspring; that's the whole point-or are frogs different?
