Science In science we have moved from the structure and replication of DNA to the study of Genetics itself. Gregor Mendel and his pea plants have taken center stage as we go through the different kinds of inheritances from simple dominance to codominance which dictates our blood type. Genetics is at a crossroads between biology, and probability and statistics. One never truly knows exactly the outcome of a pairing, but we can guess at the probability of the traits of the offspring. The students have been flipping coins to model this, and we are moving towards doing pen and paper problems to predict the offspring of different pairings with traits that follow different inheritances.

Thanks to Emerson, Katie, Ahna, and Jack, we have the first of many sprouts in the greenhouse. Lettuce, kale, broccoli, ...
