Using pipe cleaners, straws, and beads, learners explore the building blocks of life by creating their own model of DNA.

Many of the genetic sequences found in the fruit fly genome are similar to those found in humans.

Learners use a simple process to extract DNA from strawberries.

DNA is the thread of life. Encoded in its genetic sequence is the information that makes each of us unique. This activity allows you to see long, stringy strands of DNA extracted from wheat germ.
