Human Cloning | HTX Engelsk B | 28. august 2014

Her er Studienets analysehjælp til emnet human cloning, som var udgangspunktet for den skriftlige eksamen i Engelsk B på HTX fra 28. august 2014. Her lød opgaveformuleringen som følger:

A. Write a summary of the video clip ‘Embryonic stem cells: Advance in medical human cloning'. (About 200 words)

B. “Opponents of the new technique argue that (...) all embryos, whether created in the lab or not, have the potential to go on to become a fully-fledged human, and as such it is morally wrong to experiment on them.” (ll. 64-66).

Discuss risks and benefits in connection with embryonic stem cell research. Include a comment on the quotation in your discussion. Base your discussion on both the video and the text. (Minimum 600 words)

I denne bog får du det fulde overblik over de to kildetekster og hjælp til at identificere synspunkter for og imod de nye teknikker indenfor menneskelig kloning.

Nedenfor giver vi et uddrag af bogens indhold, som samtidig er en indføring i emnet:

Presentation of the topic

Human cloning has long been a topic of debate. While some people and scientists think about the research and medical potential of cloning human beings, others consider that such a procedure is morally unacceptable and medically unsafe. However, the debate is even more complex when it comes to embryonic cloning for research purposes. Cloned embryos have the potential to offer people treatments for various serious illnesses and medical problems. This is because they can be used to produce stem cells—core cells which can develop into any type of cell or tissue—which can be used to replace damaged human cells and tissues. However, cloned embryos are also viewed as being a step towards human cloning.
