Posted By: janellef, Boundary Street Public School on Thursday, January 11, 2007
As you can read above, I posted Dr.Kanatous's great journy throughout this season, so here's what happened to Dr.Hawke and the rest of the Lab Team.
In week one, the lab team filled us in on all we need to know about the Weddell Seal, and the seal's amazing ability to excercise so deep underwater, and hold it's breathe for that whole time! They also filled us in on why we need to know the secret of the Weddell seal - which is to say, why they can stay underwater for that long. We also found out that Dr.Hawke would be using two different primary antibodies,mcadherin and dystrophin. In week two they told us of their progresss with the cryostat machine, and the importance of being careful when using it, and what exactly it is for..I would lke to continue but that's all I have for now - more later!
