- The early embryo is totipotent up until the Morula stage.
- It is possible to create multiple individuals of identical genome by splitting blastomeres.
- This happens naturally when identical twinning occurs.
- Embryos require surrogate zonae, but some can progress on artificial coatings.
- Success is not high.
