-FINAL REFLECTION-
After our study over evolution I feel a little more comfortable with the subject, although there are still many aspects of evolution that I don't understand. With all of these theories or ideas floating around in the scientific ...
At first I thought Darwin's idea was the main one for evolution, but now I realize there is more to evolution than what Darwin said which makes things way more complicated. I also realized how many people think they understand evolution and yet th...
My first thoughts on evolution before instruction, were evolution is change in something over time to better adapt to its environment. I didn't write very much because I could only think of Darwin and his theory. When we got the packet with the di...
No I wouldn't select special traits for my child, because I believe that there is a true purpose for the way we are. So choosing their traits would be stealing from their true purpose in life. It would be like a parent permanently determining thei...
Same here Taylor when I clicked on the Sasquatch link I was like wow, this has to be fake. They set this website up good and I was fooled at first too.
One thing that I thought was interesting from this website was that an octopus can actually live on land for long periods of time. One concern I have is that the Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus hasn't been placed on an endangered species list yet, ...
The first virtual lab I did was PCR. 1)The first thing that I learned was that the purpose of PCR is to make DNA copies, but surprisingly not very little DNA is needed to make these copies.2) PCR works by heating and cooling the solution over and ...
All I can say is...VERY creative title there, Kerstyn.

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...
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!
"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...
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.
