Hitler's view

Today in class we were learning about Hitler's antisemitism and hate for the jews.

Here are the two quotes:

“Lowering the quality of the white race which they hate and thus lowering it’s cultural and political level so that Jews could dominate”

"The Jewish youth lies in wait for hours on end spying on the unsuspicious German girl he plans to seduce; he wants to contaminate her blood and remove the bosom from her own people."

  6. Leave for 10minss. ( begin blog in this time ) 
  7. Slowly pour 5mL of mentholated spirits down the inside of the test tube 

Result: 

 Where do you find the DNA?
In every organism, there is a cell and within that cell, there is a nucleus. There are 46 chromosomes in the nucleus and in those chromosomes there are strands of DNA.
