An explanation of man's increasing control over the mechanics of reproduction is backed up by films of parthenogenetic frogs swimming in a tank.
So far biologists have identified 27 kinds of parthenogenetic lizardsall-female species that lay eggs to produce exact genetic copies of the mother.
Now that parthenogenetic stem cells have been discovered, will we finally begin to see the kind of individualized treatments for diabetes, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and spinal .
