If you could genetically engineer any species of organism, what would it be? Would it be a unicorn? A dog-cat hybrid? Your own personal pet giant? Choose any species--real or not--that your imagination
desires!
Write a paragraph describing your species, what it looks like, and where it lives. Think of any inherited
traits the species has that might help it survive in its environment. Thinking of these traits now can help
you come up with allele combinations in the next step. Now describe your species in the answer space.
