Today, we reviewed the definitions from the Eukaryotic Cells packet. I have put the presentation answer key up under the science>biology>eukaryotes tab. We peer graded them, and I checked them over as well. Those should be entered in the next few hours.
Otherwise, we spent some time today mechanically breaking apart strawberry cells (by vigorously smooshing them) and then chemically separated out the DNA we had liberated from the membranes using soap, salt, proteases and isopropanol to precipitate them. For my part, I had fun. Tomorrow we'll start working on prepping for our Eukaryotes test, and fiish up the current social studies packet.
Toodles!
