How are we created? We came from a small zygote with genes that make us who we are. Fascinated by the formation of life, I took AP biology in junior year.

Through labs, I was able to not only obtain a better understanding but also enjoy learning about the different molecules and the complexities of genes. By using a computer program, called Simbio, I gained a visual image of the different causes of evolution and the different diverse ecosystems.
