4. Genes are a set of instructions encoded in the DNA sequence of each organism that specify the sequence of amino acids in proteins characteristic of that organism. 5. The genetic composition of cells can be altered by incorporation of exogenous DNA into the cells. As a basis for understanding this concept: a. Students know the general structures and functions of DNA RNA and protein. c. Students know how genetic engineering (biotechnology) is used to produce novel biomedical and agricultural products. We are critical thinkers who... • Develop and apply knowledge of content standards. • Analyze, interpret, and evaluate information. • Demonstrate technological skills through computing applications. • Use knowledge to solve problems. (Explain why you did this activity and relate it back to the how you were learning about the standard, for example you learned how to extract DNA and you learned about its structure )
 * Title:** Biology **Year assignment was completed:** 200_
 * Standards**: Biology Genetics 4 and 5
 * ESLR:**
 * Purpose of the assignment:**


 * Reflection:** (explain how you will use what you have learned in the future, for example you learned how to write a science paper and follow the scientific method. You learned to use technology to create the paper and you learned about how DNA is part of all living things, these are all things you will use in the future, in college or in the future jobs you will have. You have also learned some critical thinking skills because you compared the apple DNA and the banana DNA. There were was some contamination in the experiment from the apple and the DNA was tinted brown not white like the banana. It is important to be able to look critically at results to see if they make sense.)
