Cloning is the process of creating an identical copy of an original organism or thing. Cloning in the biological sense results in a molecule, single cell (for example: bacteria, lymphocytes, etc.) or multi-cellular organism that has been directly copied from and is therefore genetically identical to the molecule, cells or organism being cloned. Sometimes this term can refer to "natural" clones, which may arise when an organism reproduces asexually by chance (as with identical twins), but in common parlance, a clone is an identical copy created intentionally.

cloning is the creation of an organism that is an exact genetic copy of another. In other words, itz the "creation" of an organism with same DNA as the organism they are cloning...
ex. dolly the sheep

Cloning is something that makes life more enjoyable. For without cloning there would be alot of things missing from our everyday live such as bananas, corn, high fructose corn syrup ie. soda and everything else that crap is in. People don't realize how much cloning is done everyday and, alot of it derives from ecoli put that in your mouth.

The other 2 people mention one type of cloning.
The other type is also cloning genes and sequences in the genes. Making copies of genes and amplifying them to retrieve a specific sequence.

it means making a copy of a person/animal. kind of like producing an identical twin being born later than the original person/animal.

It's any process that creates a genetic duplicate of an organism.
