Sports are like my life, i play football, and baseball and i wrestle. I have 3 brothers that are 15, and 10 yrs old and then i have one that is 9 months old.

1. ** Where it is grown in the world? ** Polyester is synthetic fiber that is made with coal, air, water, and petroleum. 2. ** Items made from the fiber (discuss examples from a wide sampling of places around the world). ** Some major things that are made from polyester are ever form of clothing, carpets, drapes, pillow cases and sheets 3. ** Interesting information about the fiber and how it is used **. Polyester is used to bind together different materials because it is so strong. It is mildew resistant and retains heat.

=Cell Replication Project=

__Step 1__
This is a picture of the DNA before it starts mitosis.

__Step 2__
This picture shows the DNA starting to unzip itself.

__Step 3__
DNA bases begin to pair.

__Step 4__
The bases are paired on each side of the DNA.

__Step 5__
Mitosis is complete because the DNA has been replicated.

__Key__


DNA replication is when two strands of DNA become broken, unravel, and multiply into two different strands of DNA. These five steps that I have drawn out explain and shows this.

 Telomeres** - __Long ends at the end of the chromosome.__ **   Okazako Fragments** - __Where the polymerase of DNA can begin to synthesize a section of complementary strand.__ **   DNA Ligase** - __This sews the Okazaki Fragments together.__ **   Telomerase** - __An enzyme that increases telomere to the end of DNA the strands.__ **   Cancer** - __It has the ability to divide itself as many times as it wants, may slow down the aging of tissue and they grow into tumors.__ **   Transplanted Cells** - __These also have to ability to divide themselves as many times as they want, but they do die out.__ **   Cloning** - __One of the most famous uses of cloning was with the sheep dolly. They copied the nucleus of her telomerse__ **  Aging** - __this just means the same as “changes in an organism over time.”__ **
