What's the domestication project?
In the domestication project we looked at all different types of domestication primarily in dogs and cats. We then had to come up with a research question and conduct tests, collect and analyze data. We then took all of our data and put it into an infographic. During this project we learned a lot about meiosis and mitosis. We also looked at different types of complex inheritance such as incomplete and codominance.
Parker and I's original project was a long term project with the humane society where we would go and take pictures of all of the new dogs hoping to increase adoption rates. We could not get in contact with the humane society so we had to pick a different project. so instead what we did was looked at data for where animals are adopted from around the US for both dogs and cats. We picked this project because we were curious on where most people got their pets. Parker and I collected our data by visiting a variety of websites with different statistics that we could include into our infographic. I made my own infographic on animals at animas high school and collected my data using a peer survey. We found out that most animals in america are rescues and from breeders. There is a small percentage of people who got their dog as a stray which surprised me. Another thing is that most cats come from shelters and there are no were near as many cat breeders.
