Chapter 8

chapter 8 early because I'm gonna be in Hawaii next week :D :

The beginning part of this chapter was very interesting. I liked that he told us how easy it is to find DNA at home, it kinda made me want to try. And I wouldn't have ever thought that DNA would be a "white glop". O.o When he started talking about odors I cringed a little; I automatically thought of all the bad things I've smelt (eg. skunk, trash, my brother jk). And when I read more, I couldn't believe that molecules were controlling how we interpret the smell. The picture on page 143 was my favorite picture ever haha. I'm not sure why but it was just interesting to see how different animals breathe.

I'm almost kind of sad that the book is almost done, I've come to like this book even though I was skeptical at first.
