Transformation Lab results ...

Today was another cold and windy day as the storm Sandy heads north through New York.  In Selected Topics, we looked over the NOAA weather map today to seed how low the pressure was in the center of Sandy ... 960 mb and the isobars were close showing strong winds.  This was considerably lower than we observed during our weather unit earlier in the year.  In this class, we also continued our study of pollinators and student groups work on their superstructures that will be tested on Friday.

In genetics, we went over our study questions on the immune system and finished our transformation lab.  Best student group had about 500 bacterial transformation per plate ... very good!  Tomorrow, we start our brine shrimp lab for a study of animal behavior.

Tomorrow in computer programming we will start our first of two lottery analysis problems.  We are hoping to wrap up qBASIC first of next week.

I had afternoon detention to monitor after school so got home late.  I did run up to Granny's to fill her bird feeder so she watch the birds.
