From this basic experiment we moved onto human genetics and will continue to explore how we became who we are this week!

Baby Bug Lab
Over the last couple of weeks we have been working on understanding genetics and how genetic material is given from parent to offspring. In order to model this, we observed the phenotypes of our parent bugs and calculated the probability of certain genetic traits being passed on by using Punnett Squares.

Mitosis vs. Meiosis
Before winter break we started probably our most difficult unit in science, Heredity and Genetics.
We used our knowledge of cells from earlier in the year and learned how cells reproduce and divide by two processes: mitosis or meiosis!
In order to really understand these difficult topics we learned a dance sequence and showed the process using students in our classroom!
