SUPERHEROS!

Introduction

HEY YR 9!

In today's lesson you will be brainstorming and researching different materials that have been used to help advance technological processes in our society.

THIS SIMPLY MEANS:

What material can we use to advance technology and why??

 - Search the links... And be sure to complete all for the end of the lesson.. :)

ENJOY

Task

WORK FROM 28.8.14

VISIT:  http://superhero-science.blogspot.com.au/2012/01/can-genetic-engineering-explain-peter.html

Read and watch the blog (see link):  Can genetic engineering explain Peter Parker's / Spiderman's origins?

Answer the following questions:

1.                   If an irradiated spider bites a person, will it transfer its radiation to the human?

 

2.                   How might it be explained by genetic engineering?

 

3.                   Transferring traits from one organism to another at the stage of inception is one things but... is it possible to genetically modify a nearly grown man like Peter Parker? The answer might be found in retroviruses (such as HIV)

 

4.                   How could the genetic information passed along also help Peter Parker climb walls, shoot webs, and have the proportional strength of a spider?
