Read Something, Say Something

I have shared two articles with you in class.  The first was Tiny Cavers, about the discovery of a new early human species.  The second was Overthinking Worriers, about how overthinking worriers may be creative geniuses.   Please read one of these articles and write a comment below, tell us what article you read and tell us about what you thought was most interesting in that article.

Complex Inheritance

Cycles

Out of these two videos you only need Carbon (0-1:20 and 5:16 to 10) and Nitrogen Cycles (0-5:18) for you homework tonight.  If you have questions that you want to discuss tonight you can post them as comments here, or send me a message on facebook or twitter (the real reason I have those accounts) or write them in your notes, and ask in class tomorrow.
