In this lab students will study evidence to figure out who took the school’s mascot. Left at the scene is a note, some strange-looking leaves, a mouth guard, and some white fibers.

Investigations include analyzing DNA results; using dichotomous keys to identify selected plants; analyzing handwriting, fingerprints, and bite marks; and a fiber flame test.
