Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Clones are organisms that are exact genetic copies. Every single bit of their DNA is identical. Clones can happen naturally-identical twins are just one of many examples. Or they can be made in the lab.
Detailed explanation-2: -Identical twins have the same DNA as each other, but different from their parents. A clone, however, only has one parent and has exactly the same DNA as that parent.
Detailed explanation-3: -DNA that has been ‘cut’ and ‘pasted’ from an organism into a vector is called recombinant DNA. Because of this, DNA cloning is also called recombinant DNA technology.
