Genes, Cells, or whole organisms that carry identical genetic material because they are derived from the same original DNA.
Identical twins are produced when a zygote splits into two. These twins are natural clones.
Plants produce asexually, by producing runners, the new plants are clones.
Bacteria divide asexually by binary fission, all resulting bacteria are clones.
All of these processes produce identical clones of the 'original' DNA which generates new organisms with the same cloned DNA.
Distinctions have to be drawn between cloned cells, genes and organisms.
Production of cloned DNA is a natural process for grotwth and reproduction, which can be achieved by artificial means.
