Answers

Cybrids are human-animal embryos created by using an empty or de-nucleated cow or rabbit cell filled with an adult human cell. The reconstituted one-cell embryo will be allowed to develop for a few days in the lab and once it becomes a ball of a hundred or so cells, embryonic stem cells will be derived from it to study genetic diseases and the effects of the drugs.

Authorities said the cybrid embryos would be destroyed within 14 days, forestalling the possibility of scientists creating a Frankenstein’s monster or liminal beings which could be both human and animal in form.
