• ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION

    In this activity, we tried to describe the nucleotide matching in the DNA helical structure and the grouping of the periodic table using the colour sensor. Genetic disorders can arise if the nucleotide matches in the DNA helical structure are wrong. We have also examined the factors that may cause genetic defect when designing this activity.










    Usage: There are right and left carton blocks on the platforms we have prepared. We also put magnets in these cardboard blocks. We also make a mBot forearm with a plastic insert we removed from the 3d printer. There will be nucleotides in different colors on this arm. We place the color sensor in place of the ultrasonic sensor. We place green, blue, yellow and red cardboard flags on the road, so as not to close the path.


    Example: When you press A, mBot moves forward. The color sensor sees the green cardboard on the road. The color sensor turns to the left and sets itself in its cardboard block. mBot is pulled by the nucleotide magnet located in front of it and containing iron dust, and mBot places other nucleotides in its place in the same way.


    The color sensor is connected to the line monitoring device of the mBot. It carries the elements according to colour groups.
