I like the lab on wednesday

I like the lab on wednesday because i felt like we actually got somewhere in trying to figure out how we are different even though we are all made up of cells.  Before, even though i left with questions, sometimes i felt as if we were never going to get anywhere.  I guess I am just someone who likes to have definitive answers sometimes.

In lab, we decided that the difference in cells has to do with a number of different reasons.  Some of those reasons have to do with the environment of the cell, the stage that the cell is in, or even where the cell is located in the organism.  I think that things in general has several reasons why they are the way they are, and that it's never one clear cut reason.  That's why its hard to group things in definitive categories, there are always going to be overlapping.
