This Week In Science #9

 Paragraph 1: What I DID

Paragraph 2: What I LEARNED

Paragraph 3: Structures and Functions - In this extra paragraph, we want you to compare and contrast the forms and functions of yours and your table mates' organisms.

• What two organisms were dissected at your table.
• List at least 3 structures that appeared similar on your pair of organisms
• List  1 structure that has the same function on both organisms but appears very different.

This week in science we dissect stuff.My group dissected a frog and a mice.Me and my partner dissected a frog.It was fun. I had to cut the skin slowly to open it up.I cut it slowly because i didn't wanna hurt the organisms.After i cut the skin.I had to  carefully cut the fat.Once it was compliantly open.There was a lot of organisms.Like the heart the lung and the fat.The sides felt soft . When I poked it with a knife and A LOT of water came out. There was no blood until i pulled the heart out. Also when i cut the leg off there was blood.The leg has a lot of fat.I also helped dissect a mice.I saw a lot of brown organisms .When i cut it the heart was very small.And so are the hands.It gets pretty empty once i took all the brown stuff out of it.Also the spine is very small.


I learned that frongs skin is very thin its like paper.It was very easy to open it up.I also learned that its tongue is very long.Its really hard to open fogs mouth.I pretty much learned how to dissect. The mice was easy what i learned about the mice is the skin is very easy to peal. Also i learned that mices  tail is conected to its spine. I also learned that the frog has more organisms then mice . Well thats what i think because in the mice there wasnt alot of organisms as much as the frog.

The two organisms that were dissected on my table are the Mouse and the Frog . One of the similarities are the legs. They both have fast legs. But the mices leg is smaller then frogs. Also the frogs legs are longer. Another similarities is both of there livers are brown because they are closely related. Another one is they both have alot of fat. One different function is for the mouse is the legs they do the same job but look different. For the mouse is the same.

This Week In Science #8

The picture on the left is the ventral view. Ventral view is the back. I labeled the eyes because its proximal. The eyes are close to the anterior. And distal from the posterior. The picture on the right is the side view. Side view is the side of the animal. I labeled the antana because its anterior. And distal from the posterior. My first picture is the ventral view feature the eyes. The second picture is the side view feature the antenas.

My aha moment was when I found out that the back view is called vental view. My quotion is why are crikets so small? Also why wasnt there alot of blood when I cut it up? What is the nasty yellow stuff that came out the criket? Is the yellow stuff the crikets blood? I dint really have alot of aha moments. But I noticed that its really easy to break crikets wings. The connection I made was my animal and the rocket challenge we did just because crikets jump and our rockets flew.

This Week in Science #7

This month in science we worked on out slide/video project.In the project out topic or i should say out bio was Tropical rain forest . I did the tropical rain forest slide in the slide i put a lot of pictures and in the video i talked about the pictures.And i also did  the Vegetation slide .My animal was the Earth warm. Earth warms live in tropical rain forest because earth warms love dirt. And tropical rain forest  has a lot of dirt.I made the Before and After climate. Before the tropical rain forest was green and pretty. But after  the rain forest became into white , cold, snowy place. My made up animal is Fire Warm. I named it Fire warm because it blows fire from its eyes ,mouth and eyes.What i learned was how to make slides and how to make a voice recording thing. Thats all.
The major topic for our group was Tropical Rain Forest . We had to make up animals. And write about real animals.It was okay We had to make slides and they are all different. I did some of the slides and my group maids did the other once.I had difficulties with gathering information for the slides. It was really boring. I also had a little difficulties with making the video because there was only 2 people in my group that day. I did NOT like this project because it was boring and stressing. David told us that it was going to be fun but NO it wasn't. I hope we don't do this kind of project ever again .

Classification Chanlenge

Kingdom: Animalia ( means its an animal) Phylum: Chordata ( Class: Amphibia ( means A cold-blooded, smooth-skinned) Order: Anura ( means cold breez) Family: Ranidae (means a family nearly cosmopolitan in distribution Genus: Rana ( means Type genus of the Ranidae) Species: R. pipiens
Rana pipient frog could be found in the  southern side of the states. The Rana pipient is a big frog it has green and brown spots on its back and it has brown stripes on the two side. The woman's could lay up to 6000 eggs in the water . Rana pipient eats  various and small invertebrates . They also very slimy .

Cricket Investigation

 Question:Do cricket prefer fruit or vegetables?

Hypothesis:If we give crickets choice between apples and celery then I predict that they would choice celery because they like grass and grass is vegetables so they would pick celery.  

Results:(Picture of Data)

Explanation:
I put the apples in one corner and the celery in another corner.At first all 4 crickets went to the celery and they were eating that.But then after a while they went to the apple and ate that we had to move the apples little closer to the celery. I think the crickets went to the celery first because it has a stronger smell.But when we moved the apples closer they smelled the apples. After a while they didn't want none of them so they just sat at the corner.I think they like both apples and celery's.


Conclusion:If you give crickets choice between celery and apples i thing they would pick both.Because we tested it and first the crickets ate the celery.Then letter on they moved to the apples.Crickets prefer both apples and celery

This Week In Science #6

  This week in science we worked with jelly belly.We made a  key to let other people know what the flavors that they eating.We had to observe them and write which one has dark spots which one has light spots and stuff like that .We also had to divide them in to groups and put the once with the spots together and the one that don't have spots together . We Build the key and we had to ask questions about the jelly's questions like which jelly is pink and which ever is pink we put them together  I learned that I could explain something to people by using a key or a chart.
  My experiences ever okay i wasnt too exited about it. It was kind of fun but not OMG fun. My thoughts about this project is it makes no seance to me it pretty stupid I felt like I was in 1st grade gain working with jellys? Umm pretty stupid.But since I get grades for that then I do what I gotta do

This week in science #5

  This week in science we looked up some videos on animal behaviors. And we saw a lot of different behavior. Some animals were fighting and some were slapping a guy. there was two cats attacking each other and there was two birds trying to get the cats tail . There was also a dancing cat. I saw a lot of animal behavior and it was kind of funny because animals attack worst than humans do and it was funny how a man got beat up by an animal. Now I know not to get to animals too close because I don't know if they thinking of attacking me. I found out that cats are dangerous. We also looked at some crickets real once and they jump really HIGH.But they die fast and they also smell really bad. I dint know that crickets eat apples but there was an apple there so i figured they do eat apples. Animals have a lot of different behaviors.
  I am still unsure about if the animals behaviors are the same in real life. Because on the video they are very violet  and aggressive. Maybe the owners of the videos edit  the videos. The major idea was too find out about animals behavior and they are really playful,horny,abusive. I dont think all the animals are like that but I think some of them are. I noticed that dogs and cats are really abusive well not all of them but the once on the video OMG they were very abusive. My question is are all animals are like this abusive, playful, horny? No right? My aha moment was when I found out that crickets are small i thought crickets and grasshoppers were the same creature  but they are not. I still like animals :D
