Science Buddies: Use Dna Sequencing to Trace the Blue Whale's Evolutionary Tree

Curated by ACT

Around 50 million years ago, the mammalian ancestor of today's whales returned to the ocean. In this genomics science fair project, you will use mitochondrial protein sequencing to trace the evolution of whales and identify their closest living relatives that still have four legs.
