=Bigtooth Aspen= The scientific name of the Bigtooth Aspen is //Populus Grandidentata//. Its related to many tree species, here are some of the trees: Red Maple, Gray Birch, Eastern, White Pine. The Bigtooth Aspen is also a deciduous. The Bigtooth Aspen also is a toothed leaf, and a simple leaf. Plus its an alternate leaf. It has three distinguishing characteristics are that it has smooth bark, it has gray bark, and it has a thin base. The Bigtooth Aspen is used to make pulp, paper and card bored boxes. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a2/Populus_grandidentata.JPG

= Biomolecules in Food = The food I tested was the Cannelini bean. The results form the four test was there wasn’t any simple sugar present, starch was present, so was protein, and protein was absent. Another food that one of my group members tested was the Avocado. It had no protein, no carbs, and no starches. But it did have fats and oils. The biomolecules found in the different foods can be compared in many ways. The data is not all the same. But most of there is a protein present in the foods that we tested. The potato because it had starch and I didn’t know that a potato had it. I think it was there because of photosynthesis. The protein test should have been positive.

=Check Cell Homework=

Yes we all had little flakes. Because we all got our DNA from the same place, the check cells. If you had too much alcohol in the test tube that could of messed up the results. Also we could of not done the same thing. It all depends on the amount of food they ate, if they have braces or not.

= Summary of Replication = = = Frist off a helicase enzyme breaks the hydrogen bonds. Then the single strands binding proteins keep the broken enzymes from reconnecting again. After that the primes binds and forms a starting point. When that happens the polymerce binds replicated DNA. The lagging strand is the last strand that replicates, or the bottom part of the DNA. Replicate DNA is also called Okaki fragments. = = =DNA Info Graphic =
