1/18 genetic engineering and lab

In-Class:
Students presented their genetically engineered foods posters and completed a fingerprinting laboratory in an effort to identify each quality of a fingerprint. We compared DNA fingerprinting with finger printing.
Homework:
Continue work on genetics project. Research should be complete and will be given a progress score by Wednesday, January 23.

To answer the SQUOD: Identical twins' "fingerprints are generally similar, they are not identical." For an explanation of this see www.forensic-evidence.com/site/ID/ID_Twins.html
