Essay On De-Extinction

De-extinction is a method to bring extinct species back to life using DNA that has been extracted from the remains of the extinct species. This report will be based on the application and limitation of the method of De-extinction and itself.

De-extinction is sustainable for many things such as environments, economics, and socially. For example, after making extinct species De-extinct, they will adapt to different ecosystems which might lead to more species of animals creating a new ecosystem or reviving one. Economically different extinct species that may be brought back through the method De-extinction, the different types of species will produce different things such as food and some might be good for social attractions (Zoo’s). De-extinction has been known as a method to bring back extinct species, through this method any animal or living being can perform what their species can without many dysfunctionalities meaning if they are not able to all the things, they were able to do before becoming an extinct species. If scientists perfect the method of De-extinction, humans will be able to resurrect species that have become extinct, especially the keystone species, humans will also be able to revive ecosystems that have either been damaged or have disappeared. Bringing back extinct species could help us grasp a better understanding of all forms of biology and even benefit humans. In Australia, Prof Michael Archer and his colleagues are working on bringing back the gastric-brooding frog, which is a remarkable animal that nurtured its young in its stomach before burping up fully-formed froglets before its extinction. Interesting enough, this was one of two extinct species of frog which reproduce in this fashion. Scientists will be able to use some of these species as flagship species. So far Prof Michael Archer’s team has produced embryos that can almost turn into tadpoles but fail in the process. The next step is to persuade these embryos to turn into tadpoles then frogs, something that Archer has convinced himself and his team will achieve

De-extinction will become a breakthrough in the medical field as well as genetic field engineering. humans will be able to understand what made these species vulnerable to extinction in the first place and use the information to save related living species. We will also be able to eradicate diseases that are caused by specific genes by introducing immune species in the wild to some of the diseases humans are affected by. The techniques that humans use to bring back extinct animals can apply to our threatened and endangered species as well by curing animal diseases such as Aflatoxicosis, African swine fever, and Akabane. It would be a way to help people bring back genetics to a plant or animal gene line so that the risk of a bottleneck (congestion in production) is severely reduced. Although there are certainly some risks to consider with this practice, scientists could apply the technology to various improvements in animal health too. Imagine birds that cannot catch the flu or animals that could provide anti-cancer genes humans will be able to do this by studying real-life De-extinct species through studying their genes and traits.

Many of the animals that have gone extinct on our planet passed away before modern science development. That means humans are left with illustrations and observations from those who were alive at the time. Using the de-extinction process to bring them back would allow humans to gain more insights into how our world works. This work could help scientists to discover how the processes of evolution work, what natural resources were once available, and additional information that is not currently available to people. Most of the time when people hear about De-extinction they start thinking about dinosaurs, the possibilities of dinosaurs becoming De-extinct are very high if we learn the method to recreate genes and DNA, but it has it still has its pros and cons. a con would be how will scientist create ecosystems beneficial for the dinosaur’s health and how would humans tame them. A pro being humans will first-hand experience a gigantic extinct species and scientists will be able to study the species that were once extinct.

De-extinction, or resurrection biology, is the process of bringing an extinct species back to life. The process involves time taking and sophisticated procedures including gene transfer, interspecies cloning, and surrogate birthing and parenting, all of which, takes genetic engineers’ and biotechnicians’. De-extinction is done by taking any type of DNA sample from an extinct species and then creating a life form that is a replica of the extinct species.

De-extinction has been known for a long time, De-extinction is about bringing back extinct species through gene editing and gene cloning. Some European scientists brought back a Pyrenean ibex, which is a type of mountain goat. Although sadly the baby Pyrenean ibex died after some minutes, this happened in 2003. The scientists achieved this by editing a normal gene of a mountain goat made it give birth to a Pyrenean ibex. This possible for scientists by using a non-extinct species (mountain goat) that is related to the extinct species (Pyrenean ibex) they can access missing genes and build up from there.

To sum up, everything that has been stated in this report, this report has gone through discussions about De-extinction and how some people have nearly brought back extinct species. Also, how it is done by using DNA and gene cloning through other related species.
