Shandis this is a cool theme!!!!!
Did you know that your body is like a puzzle; it is very complex and relays on every piece to create a complete product. There are so many pieces to this puzzle that many people don't quite understand, which enables them to get the picture, and th...
I learned quite a bit today about "healthy" and "unhealthy" foods. From previously looking into this topic I learned that marketing plays a huge role on what foods we believe to be "healthy." My "healthy choice" is the perfect example. My healthy ...
Like my other classmates our discussion over diets stuck out to me most. I think the reason this really stood out is because its an issue that gets discussed everywhere. Think about it, you can't flip through the channels without seeing a new and ...
I must admit that this was indeed a very controversial discussion. The topic of life has always intrigued me because so many people have so many different opinions in regards to what it really is. When you first posed the question, when does life ...
I do often tend to pull myself away from basing a lot of my decisions on emotion, so as far as being objective goes I think that might just be a part of my thought process. Although, I found myself opening my eyes to the other side of the argument...
When we were first presented with this list and were told to draw a line showing were we would "end" certain species, I was pretty convinced that eliminating all of them would be a great idea! Wrong. I contemplated in my head whether or not this w...
The desert video that we watched in class today was awesome!! I didn't realize that deserts are formed by lack of water. I gained an even greater understanding for all types of deserts. The quote that really stuck out to me was, "everyday is a bat...
As Sean mentioned...I agree that there will be quite a diverse population to be found. I think there is a misconception when it comes to its hot and dry climate and lack of living things that ihabit this area. From previous science classes and rea...
When we actually got to go to the pond and have the hands on experience I believe that I gained a whole new understanding. It wasn't anything comapred reading and looking at pond pictures to gain knowledge, we were actaually conducting experiments...
Going to Western I didn't expect to do anything with tree's, so I was completely surprised. I really enjoyed doing this experiment, partially because I like enjoyed being able to get involved with nature and learn more than just the name of the tr...
During this activity I think it’s pretty safe to say that I have gained a whole new understanding for pond life. It wasn’t until we had to sit and think about all of the different organisms that live in ponds, did I realize that there is much, muc...
I really enjoyed the Berkley site that we just visited! That college is absolutely amazing! On one of the links that you can click it is said that "In school, science may sometimes seem like a collection of isolated and static facts listed in a te...
Ahhh me too! I used to hate failing, well I mean I still do. Haha. But when you really think about it, when you fail you can rule out what didn't work before. That makes strategizing for the future way easier! Now when I fail I use it as a learnin...
I totally agree. Science is really complex. It definitely is a subject that makes you think above and beyond...but I think that's the best part! I'm with you on being confused of what science really is, because there is a ton of possible definitions.
During our reading last class I feel that I learned quite a bit about theory, atleast thats what has continued to stick in my head. Before the reading I thought that the word theory simply mean a guess, something that you knew little about but sti...

Another Piece of the Puzzle?
Did you know that your body is like a puzzle; it is very complex and relays on every piece to create a complete product. There are so many pieces to this puzzle that many people don't quite understand, which enables them to get the picture, and that's okay. This not-so-complete picture has really became apparent in today's generation. Unfortunately, we have literally been fed countless misconceptions into what we can and can't put into our bodies. The fact of the matter is that it's not about th… Continue

Today after practice when we were getting ready to get a beak down coach said something that brought me straight to our whole topic of carbs and fats and proteins. he was talking about how he has been where we are, having to cut the weight and kee...

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...
