Re: How Cloning works ?
FF: for your question, usually the clone lives shorter than the original. This is because the DNA of the original used to clone has been damaged over the years. So this DNA is used by the clone as 'new' DNA. See it as this, the original when born has perfect DNA, in the course of years damage accumulates.....this damaged DNA is used as 'new' DNA for the clone: hence the clone doesn't live as long as the original.
DHTN: indeed, all 'human' clones thusfar are actually aborted fetuses. Regulation doesn't allow to keep human clones longer than 12 (?) week of gestation. After that time they shud be annihilated. So all human clones you see now are actually fetuses
