This Learn Genetics website by the Genetic Science Learning Center gave me a lot of information about what cloning is and how it is done. It talked about the two main ways cloning is done, which are artificial embryo twinning and somatic cell nuclear transfer. It also compared the two and showed differences and similarities between the two methods.
The website is very reliable, because it is run by a university and is written by the Genetic Science Learning Center. The website is objective, and doesn't take a stand on whether or not they support cloning or which method they prefer. The website just gives facts about cloning and not opinions. This source is a primary source. This source was very important to my project as it gave me information about what cloning is and how it is done, which was a major part of my project.
"HowStuffWorks "Cloning"." HowStuffWorks "Science". N.p., n.d. Web. 14 Jan. 2013. http://science.howstuffworks.com/life/genetic/cloning-info3.htm.
This cloning history page by HowStuffWorks gave me a lot of information about the history of cloning. It went through from oldest to newest events about cloning, and the most recent event was from 2004. It also talked about different animals that were cloned in labs in different labs, and showed how all of these animals help support the theory that humans could be cloned.
This page does not list an author, but all of the authors who write on the website are people who do very careful research or are experts, so this is a reliable source. This source is objective because it doesn't state whether or not they support cloning. They give facts about cloning and briefly mention how ethics causes some controversy, but they don't take a stand. This source is a secondary source. This page was important to my project because it gave a lot of information about the history of cloning, which was one of the main topics of my project.

This cloning page from PBS Newshour gave me a lot of information about the controversy of cloning. It talked about both points of view and also talked about famous people who were on each side of the issue, especially former President Bush, who was against cloning. It gave quotes the president said that backed up why he didn't support cloning, but it also gave quotes from the leader of the US Senate who is for cloning. The website also gave basic information on the cloning process.
This website is probably pretty reliable, since it is run by PBS and written by a Newshour extra. This website is objective because they talk about the controversy, but they don't take a stand.

"Why Clone?." Learn.Genetics™. N.p., n.d. Web. 14 Jan. 2013. http://learn.genetics.utah.edu/content/tech/cloning/whyclone/.
This cloning uses page from the Learn Genetics website gave me a lot of information about the uses of cloning. It listed about the four major uses for cloning, and gave some information about each. The four uses it listed were the following: cloning for medical purposes, reviving and protecting endangered or extinct species, cloning a dead pet, and cloning humans.
