Explain to a layman the different ways an animal can be cloned. Is there anything besides somatic nuclear cell transfer?

Nobody has any knowledge on this subject?

biology isn't -really- science, amirite?

I do, but typing a paragraph on how to clone when the recipient of the information most likely isnt at a level to understand some of it or they would have just looked up a textbook explanation, doesnt seem to inviting to me.

You could fully sequence the dna of an organism, manufacture the full genome in a chemical factory then implant the synthesised dna in a host cell

pretty sure the most advanced genome we've completely synthesized so far is yeast

yup, even then it's only about halfway done

That's the problem though. Doesn't the host cell have to be from the same species? The Pyrenean ibex was resurrected with an egg cell from the same species, but the only live birth lasted 7 minutes.
