These DNA models were built with jujubes, fuzzy peaches, cherry nibs and toothpicks - now doesn't that make Okazaki fragments much more palatable? Yummy, hands-on science!

Biology 30 Hands on DNA!
Late last week, the grade 12 students in our Biology 30 class were learning about DNA replication and Okazaki fragments. They built DNA models first so as to have a better understanding of the structure and shape of the molecule.
These DNA models were built with jujubes, fuzzy peaches, cherry nibs and toothpicks - now doesn't that make Okazaki fragments much more palatable? Yummy, hands-on science!
