But sex with your clone will probably not lead to a baby, so who cares… For that reason, it wouldn’t surprise me if there was some biological reason why two identical DNAs could not succesfully combine.
minus-square14th_cylon@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 months agoI have no idea how big scifi that is, I’ll leave that question to some real biologist. Also realized that one edge case might be cloned hermaphrodite, not sure how common is functional hermaphroditism amongst humans.
