Do not get the steps out of order!
Take a random sample of approximately 3 billion bases of DNA that broadly represent each of the 23 chromosomes from the nucleus of a cell of a female of the species.
Take a random sample of approximately the same number of bases of DNA that broadly represent each of the first 22 chromosomes from the nucleus of a cell of a male of the species.
Recombine thoroughly. (Stir but don’t shake. No shaken baby syndromes allowed.)
Chose the gender of baby:
a. Add a Y-chromosome intact from the male to create a boy; or
b. Add an X-chromosome intact from the male to create a girl.
Add mitochondria from the female to energize the new organism.
Incubate in a warm womb for nine months.
Warning: The next 18 years will be the roughest.
