Teacher Appreciation Day is May 3, 2022. My favorite teachers were always my math and science teachers. I am honoring them today with the Scientifically Speaking Multi Albus fabric design from the Geekery collection by Sue Marsh for RJR Fabrics. It features classic math and science icons from Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Calculus, Biology, Chemistry and Physics.
Happy Teacher Appreciation Day!

Fabric Name- Chromatics Aqua designed for In the Beginning Fabrics
Material- 100% Cotton Fabric
Background Color- Aqua
Theme- Science
Description:
The Chromatics design from In the Beginning Fabrics features the chemical structures of the four DNA nitrogenous bases: adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and thymine (T). Each of these bases combine with a sugar and a phosphate to form a unit of DNA called a nucleotide. To form the double helical structure of DNA, adenine binds to thymine, and cytosine binds to guanine. Cytosine and thymine are the single ring structures, called pyrimidines. In the image for the fabric, thymine is the single ring structure with two double bonded oxygens (O) [bottom row, center]. Adenine and guanine are the double ring structures, called purines. In the fabric image, guanine is the double ring structure with the double bonded oxygen (O) [top row, center]. For more information, please look up DNA base pairing, DNA structure and DNA replication.
This pattern is perfect for a geneticist or a biochemist. I hope you learned something new today! Science is fun!
