Mrs. Scott’s Biology students’ bacterial transformation lab was a success! The bacteria that received the plasmid DNA demonstrated antibiotic resistance, and the presence of lactose activated the gene that caused the bacteria to “glow”!




Mrs. Scott’s Biology students are completing day 1 and day 2 of the bacterial DNA transformation lab - hopefully tomorrow our samples will show the presence of glowing fluorescent bacteria!




Mrs. Scott’s Zoology classes studied the effect of water temperature on a fish’s respiration rate! Thank you Rob Fischer for donating the goldfish! The students loved the lab activity!
