Variables Tested: Dependent variable is sleep and the independent variable is working out. Hypothesis: Exercising regularly will make it easier to fall asleep at night.
Experimental Procedure

Control: A week’s worth of sleep with no exercising during the week.

Treatment: I will start out with workouts that are simple, like going for a hike or jog and gradually increasing the challenge in workouts so I don’t overwhelm my body.

Materials: No materials needed. The workouts will not need any equipment.

Actions: I will not be exercising for one week and track how easy it was for me to fall asleep and how long it took me. Then, I will be regularly exercising (four times a week) for the following week and tracking how easy and quickly it took me to fall asleep. I will then compare my data from the two weeks.

Data Collected: I will use an app called Sleep Cycle that has notes where I can add in that I worked out, and it also uses a microphone to tell when I fall asleep and the quality.

Safety Considerations: Make sure that the workouts that I’m doing are safe and I am not overexerting my body.


Integumentary System

The main organ is the skin, which is made up of the epidermis (epithelial tissue), dermis (connective tissue), and hypodermis (subcutaneous). The skin cells have keratinocytes, melanocytes, and fibroblasts.

The main organ in the skeletal system is the bone, which can be spongey or compact. The cells in a bone are osteocyte, osteoblast, osteoclast, and red blood cells run through the osteons.

Description = Working in the chemistry lab and writing down what I noticed during the experiment I had watched.

Explanation = Explaining to my parents what chemicals we had used for the experiment and what happened when we combined them when I got home.

B: Angioplasty, is when doctors use a stent to widen the arteries.

C: Diets that are low in fat and cholesterol and high in fiber, we can prevent myocardial infarction. Foods like proteins, fruits and veggies, and whole grains are important to have in the diet.

Body Data Media Plan

1. Inches on Stomach - I chose this parameter because I have gained quite a lot of weight during the pandemic and I would like to be able to get to a healthier weight. Instead of focusing on my weight, I would like to measure the inches around my waist to track my progress since weight can be deceiving.

2. Amount of Exercise - I chose this because I would like to get to Data Information
Form:

1. Data will be in numbers.

2. Data will be in numbers. Record:

1. Data will be tracked in a chart.

2. Data will be tracked in another chart. How Often:

1. I will track the data once a week on Mondays.
2. This data will be tracked during the seven day week, and marked whenever I work out.

A: The disease is caused by vibrio cholerae bacteria which can be picked up from contaminated food or water.

B: The bacteria affects the small intestine. The patient can experience mild to life-threatening symptoms. Symptoms include diarrhea, vomiting, and dehydration.

C: The treatment includes antibiotics, IV fluids, and rehydration.

works at. Since my goal is to become a teacher, and I spent a lot of time in schools since I volunteer a lot.
Where: I plan to get trained at Coburg Community Charter School. My mom works there, and I worked there this past school year. Since I volunteer a lot at the school I am able to attend the training that the staff goes through. The school is located right next to a fire station, so they go next door when it’s time for the training.

Why: I chose this training since it makes the most sense for me. I work a lot with children, so it makes sense to receive the first aid training that the rest of the staff at CCCS does. It’s also the training that is most accessible to me. Next month I will be attending a field trip as a volunteer with the fourth grade class, so I’m required to get first aid training.

Lab Safety

Science Concepts: From quiz two, I described the integumentary and skeletal systems to show I understand systems in the body. Next, I used my experimental design media to show I understand hypotheses and data collection.

Human Concepts: I included my infectious diseases laboratory media which show I understand parasitic and pathogenic diseases. My second example is from quiz eight, where I described how cholera is caused, where it attacks and treatments. This shows I understand infectious disease and treatment.

Biology Concepts: I used an answer from quiz one about how cellular mitosis. My second example is from quiz seven where I explain where a fetus grows and what happens to the organs. These answers show that I understand cells and development.

Science Connections: My first example is from quiz ten which discusses where I would put funding towards during the COVID-19 pandemic. The second example is from quiz three which talks about what a heart attack is, a procedure done to prevent it, and how we can naturally prevent it from happening. This examples show I understand global science and scientific technology.

Human Connections: I used my life artifacts media piece to show how photos can capture aging. Then I discussed how writing, photos, and drawings were used in the term to communicate my knowledge. This shows I understand writings, drawing, photos, and family albums.

Biology Connections: I shared a personal picture of one of my favorite hobbies. I also shared my interest in shopping at Farmer’s Markets and cooking healthier meals. This shows I understand exercise, diet, kitchen science and local communities.

Science Skills: For my first example I used lecture notes media to show I understand note-taking and recording. Next, I used answers from quiz one to talk about discovery (exploration, description, and explanation). These examples show I have mastered the outcomes.

Human Skills: I used my first aid media and safety checklist to show that I have understand safety in the lab, field, and first aid.

Biology Skills: I used body data visualization and body data media to show that I understand data collection, management and visualization.
