Genomics

For genomics, we had to do a little research, and answer some questions. and pair up some chromosomes from today, sort them out into groups of 2 and find out why our chromosomes we're 2 different colours, if you would like to find out more about us pairing chromosomes with each-other. then tell me and I maybe do some more research about pairing chromosomes.

Genomics Hui

Today for genomics we had a quiz with Glen brae and Glen innes intermediate block, 

We all got sorted into groups of 5 or 6, When they arrived we got sorted into groups and we introduced ourselves and we had pop quizzes. and got spot prizes. I was very shock today because of all the hard work that me and my team did, I really can't believe that my team actually made it in, to the winning spot. I was so proud of them, and I was just filled with relief. And I would also like to say a huge thank to the teachers for taking time, and putting lots of their hard work into this little event, I was very entertained and can't wait to see if anymore of these stuff happen again.

Microscope Fun With Dr Thierry

Today for genomics we had Dr Thierry Lints talk to us about microscopes, and how to work with it, when he was done telling us all the information about what to do with the microscopes our class had to go in to groups of 3 or 4 and work with one microscope. We all had different kinds of creatures and cells to look at through the microscope. Thierry taught us lot about these microscopes and how to use them, and gave us a lot of little cells to investigate on.
