Detailed explanation-1: -These include an increase in birth size and a variety of defects in vital organs, such as the liver, brain and heart.

Detailed explanation-2: -“The main ethical concern about cloning a pet is that doing so doesn’t actually provide any medical benefit to the health of a pet or to people, ‘’ says Dr. Robert Klitzman, Academic Director of the Master of Science in Bioethics program at Columbia University’s School of Professional Studies.
