A waiver is a formal statement giving up a right. If you go on a school trip, your mom might sign a waiver saying that the school is not responsible if you get hurt on the trip. When you sign a waiver, youâre voluntarily giving up a privilege or legal right. A waiver is often required before you participate in something dangerous.
Strictly speaking, cloning is the creation of a genetic copy of a sequence of DNA or of the entire genome of an organism. In the latter sense, cloning occurs naturally in the birth of identical twins and other multiples.
Cloning is a process by which identical copies of an organism are made. The copy, or clone, possesses exactly the same genetic material as the original organism. Cloning can occur naturally through asexual reproduction, wherein a single organism creates a genetically identical copy of itself. Bacteria, many plants and even some higher life forms can reproduce asexually.
