DNA Workshop @ Science Centre

Having experienced being a scientist extracting DNA from the E Coli bacteria, I'm sure all of you have lots to say. Think about what you have learnt, discovered and enjoyed. Write your feelings and experiences down in this blog!

How alike are we to these living things?

Our DNA is

3o% similar to yeast,
40% simiar to a worm,
50% similar to a banana,
60% similar to a fruitfly,
90% similar to a mouse
and
99.9% similar to an ape!

Information & picture taken at the workshop.
