genetic variety




genetic variety played a huge part when we made the reebops. if everyone genotype was the same then we would all look the same and everything would be boring. but since everyone had genetic variety then one person could be green, have spikes, and have wings while an other person could be brown, not have spikes, and not have wings. it also controls if you are a boy or girl.
on Monday we reviewed who was in our family. to do that we checked the genes of the f3 bug and read out the colors. if you had a color that was read out then you would stand up. unfortunately we had people with the same color as other people so we took the rest of the period to fix that.

on Tuesday we took all period and worked on the project

on Wednesday we worked on the project the whole period

on Thursday we worked on the project the whole period and had a fire drill

on Friday we had off.

i forgot what we did on monday

on tuesday we learned how to do a die hybrid cross. i think we also had our last spongebob sheet.

on wednesday we reveiwed our homework and we also learned more about a die hybrid cross.

on thursday we wasted a whole class period because we had to change something about our blogs. when we were not doing that we went over the back of the spongebob sheet.

on friday we split up and got some bug dna. then we went back together as a group and added spikes on the legs as another one of the traits. then we drew the bugs on paper.

on monday we had a snow day.

on tuesday we talked about the experiment to the test for the genetics and made a graph.

on wednesday we compared the class results to the grade results and saw what was the same and what was different.

on thursday we started our trial for the project and wrote what we would do and a review

on friday we did the experiment and got the results and wrote them down, got our quiz back, and started to take a quiz but didn't finish.
