| C-value paradox |
lack of a consistent relationship between the genome size (C-value) and the complexity of an organism |
| cell nuclear transfer |

ex vivo to replace or repair damaged tissue and/or cells |
| cloning |
process of making genetically identical copies of DNA (recombinant DNA technologies), cells or organisms (e.g. cell nuclear transfer) from a single ancestor. |
| cloning, reproductive |
creation of an embryo using SCNT with the aim of creating a new individual genetically identical to the species who donated the cell nucleus |
| cloning, therapeutic |
use of SCNT to produce embryonic stem cells which may be used to treat disorders such as diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease. |
