Map 75 I am the 8 cubes Codons = 64 Codons




This is a set of 8 cubes which I originally thought were required to produce all 64 codons of DNA. I created a game in which we timed ourselves producing the 6 sided, 8 piece cube placing TGAC on all six sides. I have done it in a minute but with practice you can probably do it a lot faster. For some reason it seems to take the average person about 3 minutes. Of course they don't have the DNA mindset I do but I still find it odd that they have such hopes on starting only to falter. Some are faster but then when I pick up the cubes and look at the base they haven't got four colours underneath so they need to start again. Its fun to do even though I have lost my original title "I am the 8" because actually I am now just the 4.

I am The Four hasn't got the same ring to it, has it?
