Fruit DNA Necklaces
Various Science Expos and Fairs (Cattaraugus County, NY)
All living things have DNA. What does DNA look like to the naked eye? We found out by using the fruit we eat along with household items (and made a cool necklace out of it).
Activity Description
The participants will crush fruit pieces and use common materials to extract DNA. This is a very simple activity that can help introduce the concept of DNA to young students or reinforce it to older ones.
