CONT

Clonage naturel - Dans la nature, le clonage n'est rien de plus qu'un mode de reproduction parmi tous ceux à la disposition des êtres vivants. C'est même le plus répandu puisqu'il concerne toutes les cellules procaryotes (division), presque tous les eucaryotes unicellulaires (mitose) à l'exception de ceux qui pratiquent la reproduction sexuée (faisant intervenir la méïose), mais également de nombreux végétaux et animaux multicellulaires.

OBS

On assimile souvent la naissance de jumeaux monozygotes chez les animaux et chez l'homme à une forme de clonage naturel.
