    I just heard that they have fertilised a woman with her clone by using her DNA cells, obviously, and skin cells from her partner. How can this be a true clone if they used cells fron another person?

    Question #43545. Asked by peasypod. (Jan 18 04 8:36 PM)


    Gnomon

    		They used one of her egg cells, took the DNA out of it and inserted the DNA from her husband's skin cell. This is a clone of her husband, and should grow up to be an "identical twin" of the husband.

    The claim has not been verified by anyone else yet.

    A fertilised cell divides into two, then four, then eight seemingly identical cells. By what mechanism do cells begin to specialise to form blood, nerve or bone cells, and what determines whether they become part of the head, feet or whatever?

    There was a woman whose cells are bred in culture dishes in labs all over the world; a woman whose cells were so prolific that there is more of her now, in terms of biomass, then there ever was when she was alive. She died at the age of 31. Who was she?

    I've heard that after we die, many of our cells continue to live on as if nothing has happened. If so, which human cells are likely to live on longest after the human they were part of has ceased to function?
