Over the pass few week we have been doing a experiment/project of reproducing bugs, By mating with other classmates. So genetic variety had a big part in this because it gave us our geno types for our bug so we had to know what it looked like. If it was not for genetic variety then evry bug will be the sane it is like the same thing in us humans everybody if different and that is because we each have different genes that we get carried over from our parents so that would be the reason why you look like you family. a straight deffenition from wikipedia is A gene is the basic unit of heredity in a living organism. The gene comes from DNA which we all have in us so without genetic variety we would have no geno types and evry body would look and do the same.

this week in science was not a good week for me because i was out the first three days so i am a little confused about what is going on my friend tryed to clear it up for me by teaching it to me but it was hard to do it with him. but on thursday and friday we started to do a lab by being flys and we have to draw all of our traits on our body.then we found out that if we write any one namme on our blog then we would have to take it off because it was shoeing up on google and he did not want that to happen. that is all that has happened to me this week.

This week in science was to me a very important week because in the begginig of the week we where still leaning about genetics but only this week we took it to a whole nother level. LIke we started to learn the proprer names for the geno types like homozygous would mean the same and heterozygous would mean different but also we stated to talk about if they where recesive or domanite which basicly means if it is domanit it can eighter be AA or Aa but if it is recesive it could be aa but it also depends on if it is heterozygous or homo. So later it the week we started to test our knowledge and do an experiment which intails us cutting out pieces of sperm and egg cells and putting them in a jar to test if the percents that we have are correct. Then on the last day friday we had a pop quiz which was not to bad if you knew what you where talking about. So i learned a lot this week it was a good week
!!!

this week in science we learned a whole new unit about jeans and how we get them. So on Monday when we all where just new people to this it was really confusing but then he taught us a method called the punit square. the definition of it is The 'Punnett square' is a diagram that is used to predict the outcome of a particular cross or breeding experiment and it was created by Reginald Crundall Punnett a brilliant man. so any way the punit square shows us what the percentage of us getting a certain kind of genes. so in the middle of the week wendsday we where getting ready to start this new lab about the way people have different thing like for instance if some people taste this cemical or not i did not but i am pretty sure my friend todd did. So that is what we did on friday and i think that that is really cool because not everyone acts the same way.

this week In science we did a lot of cool things starting off the week by learning the process of Moises. so after learning about that through out the weeks we had a quiz on the difference on Moises and mitosis and the similarities also. if you studded the quiz would not be too hard but i did not study to well so the quiz was a little difficult for me. so after the quiz the next day we have a sub and we had a lab to do it was to find out what pairs or pees bread different pees. And i learned that is a smooth pee and a smooth pee bread then the result will come out to be a smooth pee, Also if you bread a wrinkled pee with a wrinkled pee than the result will come it to be a wrinkled pee. But the final one that we had to do was to bread a smooth pee with a wrinkled pee and the result came out to be that sometimes it comes out to be smooth and other times it comes to be wrinkled, It is kinda the same process as having a baby because when a female and a male "bread" then the result sometimes comes out to be a boy and other times it comes out to be a girl. So then the last day of the week Friday we had to do another lab but this time it was not about pees it was showing us how they bread so we took notes and stuff on each slide. But then the "exciting" part was that we got to play a game that i was mot to good at but apparently Todd was so he helped me out. So ant the end of the week I realized that i learned a lot by doing the labs. So have a good vacation!!!!!

this week in science we learned a lo of things starting off the week by learning the differences between meiosis and mitosis. We learned that they pretty much have the same process but a little different steps happen. off of wikipedia i thought that this pretty much explained meiosis, meiosis is a process of reductional division in which the number of chromosomes per cell is cut in half. In animals, meiosis always results in the formation of gametes, while in other organisms it can give rise to spores.
Meiosis is essential for sexual reproduction and therefore occurs in all eukaryotesand mitosis is the process in which a eukaryotic cell separates the chromosomes in its cell nucleus, into two identical sets in two daughter nuclei.[1] It is generally followed immediately by cytokinesis, which divides the nuclei, cytoplasm, organelles and cell membrane into two daughter cells containing roughly equal shares of these cellular components but some simularities and differences i found on diffen.com and it said Mitosis is a type of cellular reproduction where a cell will produce an identical replica of itself with the same number and patterns of genes and chromosomes. Meiosis, on the other hand, is a special process in cellular division where cells are created containing gene patterns of different types and combinations with 50% of the number of chromosomes of the original cell.
Meiosis is used in sexual reproduction of organisms to combine male and female, through the spermazoa and egg, to create a new, singular biological organism. Mitosis is used by single celled organisms to reproduce, or in the organic growth of tissues, fibers, and mibranes.
