What we did today:
1. Wake up pop quiz after may long. Due the next day
2. Complexity in proteins (notes)
3. Mutations case study
Thoughts and/or Opinions:
The thing about mutations was quite interesting and how mutations are actually changes in the genetic material of that species. Considering how much genetic material a human has it seems alot could go wrong with just a few errors that could cause some serious mutations to occur. This whole unit is really quite interesting and since I learned today that cancer is actually a form of mutation I was wondering what else is a mutation or causes mutations of genetic material.

This site can give you quite a bit of info on really what happens to cause DNA mutations.

well done, but you're expected to give a brief summary of what you find on a web site.
