Playing once more with the Shape Builder Tool … I was trying to find out how much quicker I can do certain things with it.
It's a time saver and it opens up so many new possibilities, imho. 🖖

The model organism I used during my PhD project with Professor Colin Turnbull at Imperial College London was the clover-like plant Medicago truncatula.
The symbol of St. Patrick's Day, an Irish Shamrock, is a stylised depiction of a clover, one of the plant species in the genus Trifolium.
Both Medicago truncatula and clover belong to the same plant family, Fabaceae. Both shamrocks and Medicago have leaves composed of three leaflets. This is known botanically as a "trifoliate" leaf, although genetic variation can produce four leaflets instead of the usual three in both clover and Medicago.
I hope you and yours have a jolly St. Patrick's Day!
I have like 10 more of these I planned to post to TikTok but didn’t because the government started trying to take down the platform the second I started using it (just like Vine) and I’m just tryna grow plants and do science stuffs
