    • Description of what we did in the lab?https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1U_mbKomuz5pA6SSsrsdxWTUVqeJUFXOUEg0IDS85E54/edit#slide=id.g26a96c0c7f8_1_744
      • This week during lab we went through everyone's presentations and got a rundown of the universe, black holes, galaxies, stars, and space exploration. My group did the presentation on black holes. We also did some quiz questions to help us prepare for the quiz that comes after spring break. 
    • The big question addressed in the lab? 
      • We didn't have just one big question, we had a few questions we discussed that got us prepared for the quiz. 
    • A description of what you learned in Thursday's lecture.
      • We went over the Big Bang and the Origin of the Universe. 
      • We also went over the alternative theories that come with the Big Bang. 
      • We also went over the stars, the universe's origin, Earth's formation, galaxies, and black holes. 
      • I missed the lecture so I went over the lecture slides on my own. 
    • Answer questions about the weekly textbook reading:
    • What did you learn?
      • The Big Bang theory is still semi-correct because the universe did happen in a sort of bang but not a sound came from it. It was more of a silent explosion. 
    • What was most helpful?
      • I liked the visuals for the lifecycles of stars. It shows it is an excellent way for us to understand it. 
    • What do you need more information on?
      • how the heck are we made out of stardust?
    • What questions/concerns/comments do you have?
      • How did they come up with all of these names for stars etc in space.

week 8

  Lab Week Eight Focus Questions:  The three questions I have chosen to focus on from this week's lab were; What did you learn this week? Are you able to relate what you learned to what you already knew? and What are new or remaining questions?  1. What did you learn this week?  I learned about the pairing in genes and about how you can tell if there is a alter in it just by one letter.  2. Are you able to relate what you learned to what you already knew?  I have already learned about the letter pairing in genes, I learned about it in my high school years. I learned more about those things in this week's lab.  3. What are new or remaining questions?  I wonder which set of genes were altered in my DNA that created a birth defect in me. 

Week 7

    Lab Week Seven Focus Questions:  The three questions I have chosen to focus on from this week's lab were; What did you learn this week? Are you able to relate what you learned to what you already knew? and What are new or remaining questions?  1. What did you learn this week?  This week I missed lab because I was ill but I was able to retrieve this week's lab slides. Since I can only go off what I retrieved I learned about how DNA goes into protein from the video we watched. I also learned about what goes into DNA, protein, and the process.  2. Are you able to relate what you learned to what you already knew?  In high school, we did the baby experiment where we flipped a coin to determine what the baby would look like so I am well versed on that. I think it is a good experiment for middle-aged kids because it helps them understand the idea of how genetics works.  3. What are new or remaining questions?  A question I have would have to be ...
