Today we had a busy day in class. You extracted DNA from strawberries, then we read the NYT article "Timid Mice Made Daring by Removing One Gene" as well examined the abstract and graphs from the original article in Cell. You spent the remaining time in class working on the timid mice questions that will be used for the group grade among the 2FS teachers.
Tonight for homework, please the Utah Genetics Heredity and Traits Site Click on "what is a trait?" (the blue box on the left side of the page). You need to spend 30 minutes working through the animation. Do not take any notes, pretend like you are watching a movie. Depending on quickly you read, you may go through the animation up to three times.
