Quark is a negative or positive elementary particle that combine with other particles to form hadrons (protons and neutrons are composed by quark), so they are examples of hadrons).However, without quark, hadron would not exist. Protons and neutrons are composed by two types of quarks: up and down quarks. Each up quark has a charge of +⅔ and each down quark has a charge of -⅓. There are six types of quarks: up, down, strange, charm, bottom, and top.]]> 2023-04-18 17:33:50 UTC https://padlet.com/isabelachacon26_2/833fddbjv7bei25i/wish/2558969458 Higgs Boson isabelachacon26_2 https://padlet.com/isabelachacon26_2/833fddbjv7bei25i/wish/2558972830 Higgs Boson is a complement particle to the Higgs field, and when working together, they give mass to elementary particles.

The earliest and most direct evidence of the theory was the expansion of the universe and the light elements that were supposedly produced by the Big Bang. The Big Bang happened 13.8 billion years ago, and during its first minutes, the universe was in an extremely hot and dense state,]]> 2023-04-18 17:36:39 UTC https://padlet.com/isabelachacon26_2/833fddbjv7bei25i/wish/2558973392 Higgs Field isabelachacon26_2 https://padlet.com/isabelachacon26_2/833fddbjv7bei25i/wish/2558975734 Higgs Field is an energetic force that together with the Higgs Boson particle, determines the mass of particles such as electrons and quarks. Higgs Field and Higgs Boson determine only the mass of electrons and quarks because they were the particles formed before both Higgs Boson and Higgs field.

Each up quark has a value of 2/3. 2/3 + 2/3 is equal 4/3. 4/3 minus one down quark (-1/3) is equal to 3/3. 3 divided by 3 is 1, so 1 can also represent a proton because is a positive number representing a positive charge.

Neutrons are made of one-up quarks and two-down quarks, since each up quark has a value of 2/3 and each down quark has a value of -1/3, it cancels each other out. 2/3 minus two down quarks is equal to 0/3, but its only neutral number is 0.

An incorrect nucleotide might be introduced during the copying of the DNA strand. Insertion or deletion happens when a nucleotide is added or removed from the sequence. The insertion and deletion mutation are  the ones that most affect the DNA, because is when the DNA has more drastically changes, changing also the protein.                                                                  ]]> 2023-05-12 17:07:41 UTC https://padlet.com/isabelachacon26_2/833fddbjv7bei25i/wish/2588977262 Diversity isabelachacon26_2 https://padlet.com/isabelachacon26_2/833fddbjv7bei25i/wish/2588985402 Diversity is what differentiate one person from another, including different ethnicities, eye color, gender, race and etc. DNA and melanin are examples of what creates diversity and what makes each person unique.  Hair color, eye color, skin color are examples of what melanin determines. In addiction, all the biological variations caused by the DNA contributes to diversity, also known as genetic diversity.]]> 2023-05-12 17:16:43 UTC https://padlet.com/isabelachacon26_2/833fddbjv7bei25i/wish/2588985402 Big Bang X God isabelachacon26_2 https://padlet.com/isabelachacon26_2/833fddbjv7bei25i/wish/2588987358 For my whole life, when I heard about the Big Bang theory I didn't pay much attention since I believe in God, I even thought that it could be a little disrespectful to my religion to believe in it. However, this project opened my mind to a new perspective. I started understanding better that there isn't only one correct explanation, I still believe in God, but I do believe that Big Bang happened.
Exists two ways of thinking about the origin of the universe. The idea that the universe was created by God, is a supernatural position and belief in which people believe that the creator (God), gave the origin to the universe and all the celestial bodies, sun, moon, and stars in six days. The explanation created by scientists to explain the beginning of the universe is called the Big Bang theory. According to the theory, with a giant explosion stars and galaxies were slowly formed over billions of years.]]> 2023-05-12 17:19:06 UTC https://padlet.com/isabelachacon26_2/833fddbjv7bei25i/wish/2588987358 Melanin isabelachacon26_2 https://padlet.com/isabelachacon26_2/833fddbjv7bei25i/wish/2589067994 Melanin is the substance in our bodies responsible for hair, eye, and skin color. The bigger the amount of melanin in a body the darker the eyes, skin, and hair of a person will be. The quantity of melanin in a body is determined by genetics and sun exposure. ]]> 2023-05-12 18:39:56 UTC https://padlet.com/isabelachacon26_2/833fddbjv7bei25i/wish/2589067994 Evolution isabelachacon26_2 https://padlet.com/isabelachacon26_2/833fddbjv7bei25i/wish/2589619962 Evolution is the theory on which species change through natural selection over time to adapt to the environment that they live in. In this theory, the fittest would survive and reproduce the most. One example from this, are the giraffes, before natural selection, they didn't have the neck as long that they do have now, but since the trees on the environment that they leave were teller than them, it was hard for them to eat, so over time, they started adapting and having longer necks. Now is only possible to see giraffes with long necks, because the fittest is the one who survive.]]> 2023-05-13 16:14:52 UTC https://padlet.com/isabelachacon26_2/833fddbjv7bei25i/wish/2589619962 Mutation Vs Adaptation isabelachacon26_2 https://padlet.com/isabelachacon26_2/833fddbjv7bei25i/wish/2592034416 Adaptation is also a type of mutation, however, differently from the mutation of a genetic disorder such as insertion or deletion that affects negatively, adaptation is a positive mutation that impacts on the fitness of a species in an environment, increasing their life expectation.]]> 2023-05-16 00:12:07 UTC https://padlet.com/isabelachacon26_2/833fddbjv7bei25i/wish/2592034416 Natural selection isabelachacon26_2 https://padlet.com/isabelachacon26_2/833fddbjv7bei25i/wish/2592034663 Natural selection is the mechanism that leads to evolution. One example of this is the giraffes' case that was already explained in Evolution.

While Lamarck thought that the changes that occurred were random.

According to Lamarck, the characteristics acquired from an organism would be passed through reproduction, passing to its offspring. Lamarck believed that not necessarily the characteristics that an organism was born with a would-be pass, but also the characteristics obtained. For example, if a person does a nose job, their children would be born with a "beautiful" nose.

Darwin disproved Lamarck's theory through natural selection. According to Darwin, organisms that adapt to their environment would produce more offsprings able to survive to it. Despite the fact that a part of Lamarck's theory was wrong, it helped Darwin to come up with the Natural selection theory, because Darwin accepted the idea purposed by Lamarck that offsprings would acquire traits from their parents, being a possible source to adaptation to natural selection.
