It begins with : asking a question. Then continues on to : background research. This step helps you learn more about the topic and ensures you do not repeat a mistake another scientist has made in the past. After finding background research you must create a testable hypothesis. You must do this so you can continue with the expirement and be able to have a conclusion. Then you test the expirement and analyze the data.  When you find out whether or not your collected data supports or opposes your hypothesis, you must draw a conclusion. These five steps coincide to help you create a successful experiment. ]]> 2018-04-23 02:03:43 UTC https://padlet.com/kathyg203/udtguvy1qczf/wish/254219084 Vocabulary kathyg203 https://padlet.com/kathyg203/udtguvy1qczf/wish/255432041 Hypothesis : a proposed explanation or starting point for an expirement. 
Background research : basic background information that will help you expand your knowledge on the topic. 
Expirement : a scientific procedure that tests a hypothesis. 
conclusion : what the outcome of the expirement shows, whether the data found in the expirement supports or goes against your hypothesis. 
Observation : when you look over the expirement or data. 
prediction : make a educated guess on what will happen to the subject or thing you are testing. 
independent variable : part of the expirement that changes. 
dependent variable : part of the expirement you that is affected by the independent variable. 
control : another word for constant, unchanged variable throughout the expirement. 
constant : variables that stay the same for both expirements.

All of these organelles have specialized functions. These specialized functions helps the whole cell to work to stay alive. All of these cells combined make up organisms. There are also two different types of cells, prokaryotic and eukaryotic. Prokaryotic cells are unicellular and don’t contain nucleuses or membrane bound organelles. Eukaryotic cells  are any organisms that contains a nucleus enclosed by a membrane. Both animal and plant cells lie in the eukaryotic category. The differences between animal and plant cells is the chloroplast and the cell wall that envelopes the plant cell. ]]> 2018-04-25 21:36:34 UTC https://padlet.com/kathyg203/udtguvy1qczf/wish/255447257 Vocabulary kathyg203 https://padlet.com/kathyg203/udtguvy1qczf/wish/255447366 eukaryotic : any organism who has a nucleus enclosed in a membrane.

Passive and Active transport. Passive transport does not require energy while active transport does. These transports happen along the cell membrane to make the outside concentration equal to the inside of the cell. Water has a part in Osmosis,  which is water moving through the semi permeable cell membrane, to equalize the concentration on each side of the membrane. Water has many properties like high specific heat, adhesion, cohesion, polarity and density. These properties all coincide to make the simple compound, water. ]]> 2018-04-25 21:59:47 UTC https://padlet.com/kathyg203/udtguvy1qczf/wish/255450862 Vocabulary kathyg203 https://padlet.com/kathyg203/udtguvy1qczf/wish/255451092 Cohesion : waters attraction to polar molecules.
Adhesion : sort of stickiness, water has for other  substances. 
semi permeable : membrane that allows certain substances to pass through it and not others. 
active transport : movement of molecules through a membrane into a area of high density, uses energy. 
passive transport : movement of molecules through a membrane into an area of lower density from an area of higher density, does not require energy. 
cell membrane : encloses organelles and is semi permeable. 
high specific heat : the amount of heat it takes to raise the temperature a degree.

Mitosis produces two daughter cells with the same chromosomes as the parent. Meiosis produces haploid sex and gamete cells for diploid cells. Mitosis only goes through the process once whilst Meiosis goes through the process twice to produce 4 different cells. The different phases of the cell cycle are called : prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. These phases consist of the 4 different parts of cell division that cells undergoing mitosis and meiosis go through. Prophase is when the centrioles begin to move to opposite sides of the cell. Metaphase is when spindle fibers attach to the chromosomes that have aligned in the center of the cell. Anaphase is when the sister chromatids separate and move to the sides of the cell. Telophase is when all the chromosomes have finished moving to the poles of the cell and the sides separate and create two different cells. ]]> 2018-04-25 22:10:24 UTC https://padlet.com/kathyg203/udtguvy1qczf/wish/255452371 Practice question kathyg203 https://padlet.com/kathyg203/udtguvy1qczf/wish/255823725 What is the third step of the scientific method?

This process starts in the Nucleus. In the nucleus, enzymes unwind the DNA and RNA makes a copy of the DNA. This RNA then transports the copy to the cells cytoplasm where it continues to the ribosome and binds itself to it. Then the mRNA triggers another RNA molecule called tRNA (transfer RNA). This tRNA will trigger another tRNA that are complimentary to each other. The amino acids that the tRNAs carry bind to each other using ATP. These tRNAs then form a chain of amino acids which then turn into a protein. The chain folds into a 3-d shape and the process is complete. ]]> 2018-04-26 20:25:42 UTC https://padlet.com/kathyg203/udtguvy1qczf/wish/255828524 Vocabulary kathyg203 https://padlet.com/kathyg203/udtguvy1qczf/wish/255828559 Amino acids : organic compound

Biotechnology is using living systems to develop new products or other living organisms. The first biotechnological advancement scientist made was making Dolly, the sheep. She was the first biogenetically engineered clone. Scientists are continuing to experiment on donor cells to soon clone, humans. These scientists are also making genetically modified organisms (GMOs). These foods have had their DNA changed using genetic engineering. Foods like this can help us produce more food and not run out due to overpopulation. We can genetically engineer foods to grow in different seasons or to make them rot slower. This will help us in the long run to overcome many issues we will have with agriculture in the future. The continuation of biotechnology will help it to develop better. ]]> 2018-04-27 00:25:44 UTC https://padlet.com/kathyg203/udtguvy1qczf/wish/255862347 Vocabulary kathyg203 https://padlet.com/kathyg203/udtguvy1qczf/wish/255862445 Clone : two genetically same people, one coming from a cell inside of the donor.

His theory was not widely accepted and because of that (and new information) it has not become a law. His theory is that all species come from pre-existing species. Every species has come from a previous one and because of adaptation they gain new traits every few generations. There are ways that new species can form. Some of them are called Bottleneck effect, founders effect, geographic isolation, temporal isolation and genetic drift. These effects can dramatically change the population size. ]]> 2018-04-27 00:52:50 UTC https://padlet.com/kathyg203/udtguvy1qczf/wish/255865608 Vocabulary kathyg203 https://padlet.com/kathyg203/udtguvy1qczf/wish/255865620 Evolution : a theory that all species came from other species

There are many levels of ecosystems, communities and populations that are studied in relation to ecology. This area of science allows us to understand how different organisms affect Earth. There are biotic and abiotic factors that pertain to ecology. These factors can drastically reduce another organisms species population or  improve an organisms population. Abiotic factors are non living parts of the environment; Biotic factors are living parts of the environment. Biotic factors may include predation, disease and competition. ]]> 2018-04-27 01:27:29 UTC https://padlet.com/kathyg203/udtguvy1qczf/wish/255870783 Vocabulary kathyg203 https://padlet.com/kathyg203/udtguvy1qczf/wish/255870799 Biotic factors : living factors that affect an environment

Ecology : study of organisms in relation to their ecosystem
Predation : animals preying on other animals
Competition : organisms competing for the same food source 
Ecosystems : a community and it’s habitat 
Environment : conditions surrounding a living organism 
Habitat : place an organism lives

These organ systems include circulatory,  respiratory, digestive, excretory, nervous, endocrine and immune systems. These systems  working together are fundamental to survive. The heart is a major vessel that pumps blood to the rest of the body. The different arteries, ventricles and valves in the heart work together to make the blood flow. The aorta is the main artery in the heart that gives oxygenated blood cells to the body. The brain consists of 4 lobes and two cortexes. The lobes are temporal, parietal, occipital, and frontal. The cortexes are memory and sensory. ]]> 2018-04-27 01:28:01 UTC https://padlet.com/kathyg203/udtguvy1qczf/wish/255870855 Vocabulary kathyg203 https://padlet.com/kathyg203/udtguvy1qczf/wish/255870869 Parietal lobe : touch and sensory information
