How did Charles Darwin develop his theory of natural selection and who helped him? There was more than one person that helped Darwin come up with his theory of natural selection. Before he developed his theory about natural selection and how the earth makes its natural selection he had to develop a life long dream in order to achieve his goal into developing his theory of natural selection.
     Now we need to know who helped Darwin figure out his theory of natural selection. There was people that helped him find new ideas about his theory of natural selection. Like Linneus, he helped Darwin figure out how selective breeding changed animals and it's environments. 
 
How does the Grand Canyon represent superposition and crosscutting? Well I know that superposition is the deposition of one geological stratum on another. This means that the position or place of a thing is intersected or crossed with another. In the case of the Grand Canyon, this would mean that it's rocks or mountain's are intersecting with each other.
     Crosscutting means exactly what is sounds like. It means to cut in a diagonal line. The crosscutting for example in the Grand Canyon means that the way it is dividing it divides in a diagonal way of form. In the future the Grand Canyon will turn out to be in a diagonal shape, because it is super positioning and cross cutting into a diagonal form.
 
What caused the peppered moth population in England to change their color? This change was caused to happen by natural selection. The factories during the time when the peppered moths were discovered, produced a lot of smoke and they were spread onto the peppered moths which caused them to be black with small spots. The Peppered moths were first like  tan color and had small black spots, but because of the factories pollution, this caused them to turn black. 
     Once they reproduced, the traits would be passed onto the offspring and they would come out black too. I think peppered moths in the future will be the same color. There are some tan colored peppered moths, but there are more dark ones, and because of their color they are able to blend into the night, when they come out at night. That would make them survive, because the moths only come out at night.
 
Does the overpopulation of limited resources make competition? I would say that it does, because if the resource is limited and everyone needs it, people who sell it are going to try to lower the price unlike everyone else who has it high. When something is highly needed but there is little of it the price goes up high. The competitors try to lower their price so that everyone can buy with them.
     For example, gasoline prices lower and higher every time the resource gets limited, because we need it to run our cars. That way the competition starts to see who has more customers. The winner will always be the one who has the economic prices. Which means everyone needs to fill up their car. So many people need gasoline for their cars, unlike other cars where all they need is electricity. It doesn't have to be gasoline prices that do this, al
 
The paper pet family was a family, made of paper. It helped us learn about genetics and how traits, or genotypes are passed from the parent to the offspring. The phenotypes are passed on just like the genotypes, the phenotypes are the letters that determine your genotypes. We made Punnet squares for each offspring and combined the phenotypes to come out to the likely hood of how the offspring would look like. Once we finished getting all of the information, we started drawing the genotypes on the paper offspring and then we taped them on to the paper, so they could look like a family.
     Once they were taped onto the piece of paper, you should have been able to flip them over and see its possible outcomes and the actual phenotype and genotype. They were either a certain color or had certain characteristics. Below there is a picture showing my paper pet family and how you can see some are blue some are yellow. Other characteristics can make you tell if it is a girl or a boy, like the line that is either slanted or curled on the top of its forehead.

Who is Punnett Square or what is it? Punnett Square is a person that created the Punnett square and was able to help scientists be able to see more likely probability of how the offspring will come out and what genotypes it will have. The square, is a square of course, but it has a window shaped look alike to it has four smaller squares inside of the whole square. 
     How does the Punnett Square work? First of all, you need two phenotypes in order to begin with the process of finding the probability the offspring will look like. You would put each letter of the phenotype by the side and at the top. From there you would combine the letter and then put it in one of the squares. First, you would combine the corner and then the top pair and then the side pair. Then you would more likely be able to know what genotypes 
 
Before the winter break, we made DNA ornaments which were really fun. We were able to learn how to make them while learning what represented what and what way we were supposed to put the things. Then once we were finished we could use it as a Christmas ornament. We got to see the way Ms.Poole made earings out of the ornaments, they were really cool. 
     The fact that we made the ornaments out of little beads was really cool. The time it took this ornament was really fast it took most of us only two periods to finish the ornament. The process in order to make the DNA ornament was sort of hard because the beads were not that hard, but hard to work with since they were so small. After working through the whole process to make the ornament it didn't feel like it had taken long to make.
 
     The hardest thing I had trouble learning about was the separation of the cell, mitosis. I just couldn't remember the stages for the euakorictic cells and the prokaryotic cells. They both had similar stages, but in each one they did a different thing.  The thing that made it harder for me to learn was that I didn't remember the parts of the cell. Even though we did the edible cell and I remembered the parts, I forgot about them and I couldn't remember what kind of cell it was or if it was from an animal or plant. 
     I also had trouble remembering what the cells had and where they were located. I only remembered them for the test and the edible cell, then I forgot. That's why I had trouble with the unit that came after because I didn't know where to locate the things and then put them in certain places.
 
Santa Claus is a man that every kid likes. He is said to fly o his reindeer all over the world to share presents with the good kids. That would make him have to fly around the world to visit each house in milliseconds. To fly in reindeer, that would be unreal, there are no reindeer that can actually fly. It wouldn't be possible at all either. It can't take part of a millisecond for Santa Claus to fly around the world and deliver presents.
     It would take hours for Santa to deliver those presents and even more because reindeer can't fly. The people that talked about this in the rebuttal all said this about Santa Claus which is actually true, since he can't deliver presents on flying reindeer in just visiting houses and having only milliseconds to do whatever he does.
 
      In mitosis there are six different stages. In the first stage, interphase, the DNA is copied. This stage happens in the first stage, because in order to replicate another copy of the thing that is being replicated, the first thing that has to happen is copy the DNA. Without it copying, the replication won't be able to replicate because it won't have an object to replicate from 
     In the other stages of mitosis, everything else is different, and it continues on replicating. This process happens when the DNA structure divides down the middle and another half of nucleotides appear from the DNA that was copied. They stick together, and now we have to pairs of the DNA structure.
