What's hiding underneath your shirt? Have you taken a good look at what is on your plate? What kind of molecules live in your body? Simple everyday wonders turn into facts real quick. Many don't realize the reality of what they are feeding their s...
My healthy food was a Nutri-Grain Bar and my unhealthy food was mini donuts.
The nutri-grain bar is a typical healthy food. The front of it says “ More of the Whole Grains Your Body Needs” which is most likely true. It is a cereal bar and is prod...
I don't know. It's hard to stop those who do wrong. Sometimes it's better to not make an arguement, the less drama the better. Not that we shouldn't change what is going on. But, everyone has their different looks because this topic is very big. S...
I agree with taking dieting pills and doing crazy diets, they don't seem healthy! How can a pill give you everything you need? It doesn't seem right, when you can eat food that has flavor and you don't have to swallow it down in one gulp with wate...
I find the dietary plans very interesting because there are plans out there that are very unhealthy for you. Some have too much fat or too many carbohydrates in their diet. I think the right diet should be a balanced variation of foods. You should...
I believe that life starts at conception. My moral belief is to say “NO” to abortion. It seems wrong to decide, for your own child, to end their life. Who speaks for them? Everyone deserves a life. I believe too that even if the child were to have...
In my eyes everything has an importance, nothing is "useless." I find this topic interesting! It seems like all the things listed should be eliminated from this planet, but in all reality, should anything be eliminated? It seems kind of harsh to s...
Okay, first of all my first paragraph above is "mice" not "nice". Sorry for the horrible spelling. The video we watched was very informative on deserts.
To add onto the Sonoran desert there are infrequent rainfalls. The Giant Saguaro take up most...
I expect to find different species of snakes, rats, and coyotes (That's common.) As for plants I found that there are two different species that make the Sonoran different from other North American Deserts. The species are: Legume trees and column...
It was cool to see the different types of trees from our sheet we got. Identifying what the tree species was from a leaf was a little complicated. But, in the end it all worked out. I found the different type of bark on the trees interesting. Ther...
It was neat to see the conservation department. I never knew that Missouri Western had one. It's always great to have a hands-on learning activity. I enjoy seeing things in real life instead of just learning about them in a textbook or over the in...
I completely forgot the fact that there are two different types of ponds. One pond being man made and the other pond being naturally made. There's also the fact that these ponds are extremely different. I've never really seen a natural pond, so I ...

An Atom is the smallest component of life; it begins the levels of organization.

Exactly! In my past few years for science projects I always tried to correct my hypothesis, because I always thought I was wrong. This article made it reassuring that it is OKAY. This makes me happy, and I found it surprising that a the article wa...
Yay! I agree, reading this made me question what this whole article meant a lot. I wish/ hope that we get to discuss it more in class, i think it would be beneficial. This topic was extremely interesting to the point i think we could discuss it th...
I read an article called "a science checklist." It goes into detail about what science is, or at least the boundaries. At the bottom of the page there's a checklist. I think one of the most interesting one is "Relies on evidence." I realized this ...

The Molecules Within You
What's hiding underneath your shirt? Have you taken a good look at what is on your plate? What kind of molecules live in your body? Simple everyday wonders turn into facts real quick. Many don't realize the reality of what they are feeding their stomaches. Yes, it may be growling, but no need to abuse it! Watching what you consume is easy if you give it the time and thought. The most important part is understanding it's structure and how it functions. With this information you'll be a pro at nut… Continue

Abby, why you dogging on my post? I worked really hard :(
Cole...some things are better off not said out loud.
All I can say is...VERY creative title there, Kerstyn.

And it DOES appear as if you have typed a bit more than the group from last year--maybe two or three words more...
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 th...
Im actually kind of hungry now
This is pretty much my favorite. :)
Shandis this is a cool theme!!!!!
sorry for the error in the picture of the protein...! I will fix it! I made it myself and it was too late! One of those Oxygens has to have 2 bondings!
shelby shelby leighhhhhh :) good job... lets look at the person in the yellow hodie behind the modell... that makes all this unique!
"Structure and Function" is the very first thing I wrote down on my paper when we started our Chalk Talk; when I wrote this I really didn't understand how much I was going to learn over the next few weeks. We first started with writing down the wo...
This is awesome!
Technically me and you all are the same. Yes we may have different thoughts, feelings, and perspectives, but its what is inside of us that makes us so similar. It is what fuels us and gives us the energy to be unique that makes us so identical. I...
Everywhere in our lives we get bombed with the newest diets and ideas to lose weight and live healthy. After the laws about the Nutrition facts labeling passed everyone should be able to judge if their food is healthy or not. But OH! Wait! There i...
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...
Carbohydrates, Proteins, and Lipids.
Proteins monomers are amino acids; there are 20 different commonly known amino acids. Each protein is put together by different variations of the different amino acids. There polymers are polypeptides. Amino A...
Nutrition is very important to the human diet. Here are some nutrition facts to help make a better decission on what you eat.
Carbohydrates are very important to the human body. Carbohydrates provide people with energy to get us through the day. ...
