Bridge the Past ot the Future: Genes

 

What makes your eyes brown? How are you related to your parents and to your pet dog? Why are some cells more powerful than others? These questions are just a few that can be answered by researching genetics, the study of hereditary information. By examining the principles of genetic information, you will get a glimpse at how the molecular world affects the macroscopic world. Expect to discuss controversial topics such as cloning and genetic engineering. Activities will include DNA extractions, visualization of chromosomes from human cells, and personal identification of many unique hereditary traits.
