Have humans been cloned? Is it possible? Immediate interest is sparked when students are asked these questions. In this activity, students reenact the cloning process, in a very simplified simulation. After completing the process, students discover what species they have cloned. They then research the risks and benefits of cloning, which they summarize in a short report.
