  • 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.
