All: Liquid crystals are substances that possess the combined properties of both liquids and crystals (remember solids can have a crystalline structure!). Do some research on liquid crystals and write a half to full page response considering the following:
-What constitutes a 'liquid crystal'? What kind of characteristics must a substance have to fall into this category?
-Give some examples of liquid crystals.
-What various uses are being found for these liquid crystals?

**Take this as an opportunity to explore science outside of our classroom environment, instead of viewing it as a chore. Include some sources at the bottom of your paper. I look forward to hearing about your research!**
