Ms. Metzger's Ag Science 2 class completed a Dairy Industry unit. The students learned about different types of dairy (cow, goat, sheep and plant-based) by performing a Lactose-Intolerance Lab. They tested different types of dairy products and the levels of lactose in each, and then learned why some people cannot tolerate the enzyme lactose. The students really enjoyed this unit!!
