    Ding, dong. DING, DONG, the extremely irritating doorbell rang. Waiting was hard. I just wanted to burst through those doors and finally meet Michelle’s new baby hedgehog, who she had been telling me about for weeks. I was impatiently hopping from one foot to another when I heard footsteps coming closer. “Caitlin!” she exclaimed as soon as she opened the door. “Come on, come on, Quilliam’s upstairs!” I could hardly contain my excitement as I pushed past her and ran up the wooden stairs to her…

    1. In the 1950’s, and the 1960’s the biologist Edgar Zwilling experimented on chicken embryos by cutting small pieces off of the bird, and either keeping them removed, or moving the piece to another part of the embryo.
