IB 202 Adventures - 4/18/06
Maybe not as exciting as Ecology lab, but IB 202 lab has its fun. For
example, dissecting squid, running gel electrophoresis . . . or scraping out
muck from Boneyard Creek in a quest for tiny organisms. Hey, why not?
Below are pictures taken from our most recent lab -- the Sheep Brain
dissection, the Cow Eye dissection, and finally, our trip to the creek
aforementioned.
We literally scooped up muck and water from the creek in hopes of getting
tiny organisms like snails, flatworms, segmented worms, etc. Back in the
lab, we took samples of our water and put them under dissecting microscopes.
In our prize bucket, we found flatworms! Yay! Then, we tested to see if
organisms moved towards or away from light.
Another satisfying day in the life of an IB 202 student.
