As used in this chapter, unless the context clearly requires another meaning: “Cloning” means the production of a precise genetic copy of a molecule, including deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), or of chromosomes. “Human cloning” means the creation of or attempt to create a human being by transferring the nucleus from a human cell from whatever source into an oocyte from which the nucleus has been removed. “Nucleus” means the cell structure that houses the chromosomes and, thus, the genes. “Oocyte” means the ovum or egg. “Somatic cell” means a mature, diploid cell, i.e., a cell having a complete set of chromosomes. “Somatic cell nuclear transfer” means transferring the nucleus of a somatic cell of an existing or deceased human into an oocyte from which the chromosomes are removed or rendered inert.
