Proteins Diagram




Recently, while using only a cup of cereal and a long piece of string, I constructed a diagram of a protein. I took each fruit loop individually and, and random, filled up the string. When I was finished we had the option to either tangle it up, or mix it with two other classmates of mine. Either way this would of been a diagram of some kind of protein. I decided to go with the two other classmates and we combined all three of our diagrams by braiding all three of our string of fruitloops together. We ended up constructing something, of what Mr. Lugwig said, looked like a structure of cartilage. The diagram ran together in a clear braid, but the fruit loops were all mixed up which was a perfect example of what a real protein form would look like. Here was the end result! :)
