This Week In Science #11
What I Did.
This Week In Science on monday during science class we had to write about we knew about plant cells, carbon cycle, water cycle, producer, ecosystem, and photosynthesis. Also this week in science on tuesday afternoon we went to seward park to pick out things that we needed to design our tanks for our spider. With the things that me and my partner Zulfiya picked out I thought that our tank looked like a mini rain forest with the leaves, branches, worms, and other things that we found in the park. One thing that zulfiya did was take pictures of the important parts of the ecosystem.
What I Learned.
What I Learned was that the things in our enviroment like plants, animals, trees, etc.. are important to our ecosystem. And also what I learned was that while reseacrhing about cellar spiders is that they are found all over the world except antartica. Also I learned that the cellar spiders are commonly called granddaddy long legs spider, Daddy long legs spider, daddy long legger or vibrating spider. Also I learned that the cellar spider family is pholcidae, its kingdom is animalia, its class is arachnida, the order of it is aranae, its phylum is arthropoda and its suborder is araneomorphae. Also the reason why its not found in antartica is because its too cold.

This Month in Science #10
This Month in Science
This Month in Science while Jamie was out, we watched a clip about the sewage about how the waste goes into the water and it pollutes it. Than we had visitors from the human impact institute and what we did was we made a list of examples of how we use energy, transportation, waste, water. Also this month in science we created a survey where we had to go outside in the neighborhood and ask people questions about transportation, waste, energy, and water. It kind of cool because we got to go out and explore the neighborhood but also we were surprised because the ways act when other people ask questions. We also tested out materials like hairdryers, chargers etc.. to see how much energy it uses. From what we tested we noticed it uses it a lot. Also last week in science we had the Human Impact institute come back to visit us and we got into groups and what was to finish our slogans for our T-shirt designs.

Human Impact Ad Campaign
well my drawing is based on the good and bad about the future. Like the side that is colored in black is when the world was polluted with the trees burned out. And the one with the Blue colored in is the good which means how the future would be if the world was never polluted.

This Week In Science #9
What I Did.
This Week In Science we had to research about the animals we was going to dissect. Also we dissected the animals that we researched which was a perch, skate, frog, and mouse. Me and my partner Mayra dissected a perch which is also known as a fish. What we did was cut the perch open to find the organisms. What we found was a heart, and probably the liver which im not really sure because when my partner cut the perch open she kind of destroyed the inside parts of a perch.
what I Learned.
I learned that a perch is common name for a fish. A perch is a freshwater gamefish that belongs to a family of percidae. I also learned that the body type of a perch includes a somewhat long, and rounded structure. Also a perch have a rough or ctenoid scaled, meaning that the scale is smooth but is rough which is also going to make it look like skin. A perch is a carnivourous fish that are can be found in ponds, lakes, streams, or rivers.
Structures and Functions
The two animals that were dissected was a skate and a perch. The smilarties between a perch and a skate is that they underwater but diffrent kind of waters. The type of water the skate lives in is a salt water.

TWIS #8
This Week In Science we learned the safety on how to use the scalpel when we start to dissect. Also This Week In Science we did a Dissection of a Craw fish or a Grasshopper. So me and my partner Mayra chose the crawfish which we had to dissect.But it was kind of gross but my partner and I got through it. I also learned what a Dorsel view is which is like a Top view from its back. A Ventral view is a view that you can see from its stomach which is also known as abdomen.
What I Learned.
When my partner Mayra dissected the crawfish I learned that its feature of its body has five legs on each side which it uses to walk around. And I also learned that the yellow stuff that was inside of the crawfish is the liver. When I found out that the yellow stuff that was inside the crawfish was its food that it digested. Crawfishes live in a enviroment that has to deal with water like lakes, rivers, etc.. Also I learned that a crawfish does not have bones.
