Mummification of chickens!

Today we completed the second step in the mummification of chickens.
Think about what you know about the ancient Egyptians mummification process.
Provide your opinion to the following questions:

1.) What have we done (in the chicken mummification lab) that is like the ancient Egyptians mummification processes?
2.) What COULD we do (in the chicken mummification lab) to be more accurate or more like the ancient Egyptians?

Scientific Names!

Can you stump your classmates? Today we learned of Linnaeus' system of naming (binomial nomenclature). Find the scientific name of an organism and post it below. Make sure YOU know the answer-but do not post the answer!

POST THE LATIN NAME! DO NOT TELL US THE COMMON NAME (like dog, chimpanzee)

Do NOT use Homo sapiens (that is humans!)or one of the cat examples from the book.

Have fun!
