Question 1 of 15
1. Question
Read the passage below and answer the question that follows
Cloning creates serious issues of individuality. The cloned person may experience concerns about his or her distinctive identity, not only because the person will be in genotype (genetic make up) and appearance identical to another human being, but in this case, because he or she may also be twin to the person who is the “father” or “mother”- if one can still call them that. What would be the psychic burdens of being the “child” or “parent” of your twin? The cloned individual, moreover, will be saddled with a genotype that has already lived. He or she will not be fully a surprise to the world.
People will likely always compare a clone’s performance in life with that of the original. Still, one must also expect parental and other efforts to shape this new life after the original or at least to view the child with original vision always firmly in mind. Why else then would they clone from the star basketball player, mathematician and beauty queen or even dear old dad-in the first place?
Since the birth of dolly, there has been a fair amount of doublespeak on this matter of genetic identity. Experts have rushed in to reassure the public that the clone would in no way be the same person, or have any confusion about his or her identity; they are pleased to point out that the clone of film star Julia Roberts would not be Julia Roberts. Fair enough. But one is short changing the truth by emphasizing the additional importance of the environment, rearing, and social setting: genotype obviously matters plenty. That, after all, is the only reason to clone, whether human beings or sheep. The odds that the clones of basketball star Larry
Bird will play basketball are, I submit, infinitely greater than they are for clones of Jockey Willie shoemaker.
The author agrees that ______.
