As I was researching I came across this website that gives a look at the cell's structure & function. This link on this website gives readers a chance to see what the structure of a cell is all about. I chose this because it has little cute diagrams…
According to the little BMR thing, I need 1069 calories per day.
This opened my eyes because not everything you eat is healthy, or at least the stuff that you think is healthy really is not, and I like the fact that we learned how to calculate that…
This is pretty much my favorite. :)
The last few weeks in Biology, we've been learning about bio-molecules and human nutrition. The main things we have talked about and taken notes (or Chalk Talk) on so far were carbohydrates, proteins and lipids and how they are all made up. I also f…
Sorry this is so late but....
Awhile back we learned about carbs & fats, what stood out to me the most is when we started talking about diets, diet plans & diet pills. I think they are all a bunch of bull. As Mr. Nash said, as long as you consume a…
Today when we analyzed 'healthy' & 'non-healthy' foods I brought in Apple Sauce & Nutty Bars.
My 'healthy' food was apple sauce, I didn't eat it because it was hot, so yeah..I think this food is actually healthy because it has 100% carbs, and not a…
The two topics that really stuck with me in Tuesday's discussion was when does life really begin and abortion...
While sitting in class, I heard a lot of different opinions on whether life begins with conception or when you are actually born. In my…
During last class period we were given the list and were told to draw a line between the things you'd want to eliminate and the things that you'd want to keep. I drew my line between TseTse flies and cockroaches, I did this because everything from t…
What I learned about deserts while watching the movie were the following:
The Gobi Desert is the biggest & harshest desert in the world.
-It has snow, and the temperature can drop to -40 degrees in the winter and for two months the snow never melts.…
In the Sororan Desert, I think that there will be a lot of different things living there not only from animals, but from plants as well. When I was researching the website that I found stated that there were over 2,000 plant species. When I first th…
Since we went to Missouri Western, I learned that there are far more species of organisms in a pond than I thought there were going to be. My group and I took samples of the water two different kinds of ways; the first way we took a net and sampled…
When we went to Missouri Western, I wasn't expecting to do that much with trees, I was mostly expecting to just study the pond, but it turned out that most of our day went to studying the trees, and stuff. I learned that there are much more trees in…
Since having our discussion on the whole pond thing, there were a few new things that I learned. When I was looking through the packet you gave to us, I seen some new animals, like a mollusk, I thought those only lived in the ocean since I seen some…

Carbs, Lipids, & Proteins. OH MY!
The last few weeks in Biology, we've been learning about bio-molecules and human nutrition. The main things we have talked about and taken notes (or Chalk Talk) on so far were carbohydrates, proteins and lipids and how they are all made up. I also found out that I was wrong about a lot of things, I had a lot of misconceptions about what I thought carbs, proteins and lipids were. I also had misconceptions about the diet plans, and diet pills and how they are all just a waste of money and time.

In this website, I thought it interesting, yet simple. Check it out for yourself. :)
I couldn't find any credibility on it, though. But when I went to the homepage, it came from a secondary school. That's as far as I could go regarding credibility…
I feel kind of lame having the last three posts on this! But Aziz and I had a discussion and it turns out our video is kind of the same! Mine has the music and a newscast, while whoever did Aziz's took the animation and narrated it. So I thought I w…
I will take lottery ticket A...immediately!
A very interesting argument that suggests taking action to avoid any potential global climate crisis.
Now I can see this post, but not the other one where I put on the picture and claimed that this post was gone. What's going on?!? I also know Ivory posted after this one...and I saw both mine and Ivorys in class. Hmmm...
I like your pictures Laci :)
When I started my research I searched for “cellular structure and function” and even know Mr. Nash said not to just choose the first thing that pops up, but in this case the first two links that popped up were the same website called Cellular Biolog…
I was ultimately against posting a video, and doing an actual website.. BUT I really love this video from Harvard. It shows you what goes on inside the cell. It's set to beautiful background music, and I think it shows how much "art" is really insid…
This cite definitely give more information then the last one. This one u can actually click on stuff so have fun!! The backing of this cite is really good too.
When I had this typed up in google docs it showed the different links that I had used. Now it's not showing them at all so this is the link that that i chose for this assignment.
I like this site a lot... It's kind of boring-ish... But the way it chunks information and how it's worded is easy for me to understand. Kudos, Shandis.
I used it in Zoology my sophomore year and I remembered it was a really great learning tool. Thanks :)
Actually, no... I didn't read about the background knowledge of Mr. Sullivan. He is a very accomplished man... This site a quite creditable... Yes, sadly it is a little out dated. But I still dig it... :)
I chose this site about cells because I thought it was the most informative site. Personally, wikipedia is an extremely reliable source if you're looking for the right thing, such as, cellular structure and function. It stuck out to me because it ha…
Shandis, I like this site! The compare and contrast it gives between Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic cells is great! This is definitely a site I would want to refer back to for valuable information.
Being nearly last, I'd say my 'quest' took just a tad bit longer, but I still found a good one! Click here to see! On this website, the reader/viewer can find accurate and relevant information to all the parts (structures) and functions of a cell. T…
The site that I discovered at 11:00 P.M. last night was this one. I was attracted to it because of the different tabs that it has. One tab is with the information, the next tab has a quiz over the information given, and the third and final tab has o…
On my quest to find an awesome cell website I came across one that stood out to me! I am a visual learner so this site really helped me out. It not only showed the cell from a two-dimensional prospective, but also a three! I love that! It really hel…
