DNA, Beatles, French Class and Social Studies

This is Aria .  In Science we've been learning about DNA. DNA is "self-replicating material that is present in nearly all living organisms as the main part of chromosomes. It carries genetic information." An organism is "an individual animal, plant or single-cell life form." Chromosome is "a threadlike structure of nucleic acids and proteins found in the nucleus of most living cells (it contains genetic information in the form of genes." A Gene is "part of a chromosome which is transferred from a parent to offspring and is held to determine some characteristics of offspring." I made an edible DNA craft. It was yummy.

Liam's Introduction

Greetings, I am Liam Bailey. I am an 11 year old being homeschooled by my mother, Kathleen Bailey, currently. For Math, I have done things like Prime Factorization, Exponents, and at the time of writing, Line Graphs. This is all really difficult for me,  as due to some things I have, mostly some problems with memory and focusing. That is some of the reason for why I am homeschooled. For Science, we are doing DNA/Genes. Before it was some dinosaurs for September, and for October, now it is DNA. This is both half complicated and half not, as I know most of this already. For French, we did some Thanksgiving and Gratitude work in French. Usually quick. For some days, I also do Duolingo. For Literacy, I had to do this post today and for every other day, a page in a certain book and a reading comprehension  like work. That is all for this blog.
