genetics

            We all have many different genes in us These genes determine what our outer appearance will look like. For instants like out skin color, hair color, eye color,even some diseases we can inherit. People are carriers of some restive disease, but they do not have to have this disease but they will carry it the next generation. Genes have to deal with molecular structure. We inherit our genes from our parents and other blood lines. Our genes are living organisms, even plants and bacteria carrie genes. Our genes have DNA inside the cell, DNA is a molecule with four types of nucleotides. DNA creates other copies of itself, thats how we get more genes that we inherited. 
  • Aneesha and I created a fake baby that we would have with each other. We couldn't predict what sex of the baby we will have, Because its an 50- 50 chance its a boy or a girl. Even with the physical appearance. We both thought it was pretty interesting and entertaining  at the same time. The baby turned out to be a good looking kid. :) lol
