Biology Glossary

cloning

In Cloning (biology only), cloning means cloning is a curriculum-aligned term linked to the learning objective: Explain that embryo cells from adult cell cloning contain the same genetic information as the adult body cell. This matters in Variation and evolution because it supports the learning objective to explain that embryo cells from adult cell cloning contain the same genetic information as the adult body cell. Use cloning only in this subtopic-relevant sense so the definition stays concise, curriculum-specific, and useful for AQA GCSE Biology revision. Students should use this term accurately when they explain the biology, identify symptoms, or justify an answer in GCSE Biology questions.
