Could it be that instead of ancient DNA........

Could Jurassic Park ever really happen? How much of what you saw in Jurassic Park can be considered real? Discuss all of that and more here...

Now that's an entirely different story. It's even more controversial than animal testing.

*blush* lol, I know, but I couldn't think of anything else to say. And you're right there too. It's wrong.
Unles you can come up with making 'artifical human clones' or something... /unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":unsure:" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

Why not just test it on live tissue samples? I's the same thing and doesn't endanger a whole being.

How do you MAKE a living tissue sample? Would it be like a similar process to cloning? And besides, you'd have to somehow stop the cell from mitosis... I mean, or else you're gonna end up with something thats alien to us and grows...

That, my friend, is the next challenge for science. /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

It could be simply grown. They have isolated young heart cells before and still made them work, so I think it is possible to make living tissue.
