Drosophila Lab starts tomorrow ...

In Selected Topics today, we worked on Kentucky Geology ... meteor strikes in Kentucky, geodes, crinoid fossils, Chattanooga shale and Fort Payne Limestone.  Tomorrow our weather study continues and we are researching the Oil boom of 1915-1919 in Allen County.  We will also prep up our Rock Lab for Friday.

AP Biology worked several genetics problems in class on our individual white boards.  We went over genetic vocabulary and prepped our Drosophila lab which starts tomorrow.

We will be working tomorrow with a white-eye mutant (sex-linked) and an autosomal mutant, apterous wing. Last of our genetics problems will be reviewed tomorrow before going on to replication.

Took a walk after school ... frogs and the woodcocks are still out of control!  I was sitting in the woods just below the house at nearly dark and a fox went by about 30 feet away.
