flat =About Me=

I am a freshmen in high school. I love doing parkour and free running. I do a lot of back flips on trampolines or anything that I can bounce on. I also am fascinated by the martial arts because I can be. That's just how I am. Deal with it

=Cheek Cell lab HW question= Both me and Luke had the same results. Neither of us saw any DNA in the tube. The reason for this is most likely because we didn't swish the Gatorade around enough. The amount of DNA extracted is affected by the other types of foods we eat.

=Replication Summary = Replication begins with the breaking of the hydrogen bonds between the bases. This process is called origin of replication. Then, the single binding proteins attach to the DNA. The helicase unwinds the double stranded DNA. After that, the primase attaches. The Okazaki fragments make the 3' end available to replicate. Finally, the DNA polymerase III attaches. =DNA Infographic= It's unfinished 8|
