Today we learned about mutations in the karyotypes, so we did a worksheet on bugs and had to identify its mutation or of it was normal. We also just took notes which was normal like every other day.
- Mutations May Cause Loss-of-function Or Gain-of-function
KEY TERMS:A null mutation completely eliminates the function of a gene. Leaky mutations leave some residual function, for instance when the mutant protein is partially active (in the case of a missense mutation), or when read-through produces a small...
- Mutations Change The Sequence Of Dna
KEY TERMS:Spontaneous mutations occur in the absence of any added reagent to increase the mutation rate, as the result of errors in replication (or other events involved in the reproduction of DNA) or by environmental damage. The background level of...

Today we checked our plants and my plant grew two more leaves. Then we had to take notes over three powepoints and fill in the notes then upload them to google drive. Tonight we have simple homework to study a PowerPoint then fill in the notes. We...

Today Mrs.Tyrell was absent for illness, she probably has a bacteria making her sick (haha get it because we learned about some bacteria that cause illness). Even though she was gone we took notes over a PowerPoint and I did research on Leprosy. I then...

Today we took notes in a chart and I couldn't figure out how to use my note taking app so I started to lag behind. That's why I prefer to take hand written notes because it has a better effect on me to learn things. Them we worked on our cell...
