This image comes from a beach in Ireland and is caused by millions of individual plankton.

Question: Why do the plankton do this?]]> 2021-09-15 05:48:48 UTC https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1741768911 https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742231908 this is a chemical that is produced by the brain called dopamine and its what makes you happy and gives you the good thoughts that you are having

Question: what triggers the brain to produce dopamine]]> 2021-09-15 09:38:01 UTC https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742231908 katherine5652 https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742239815 The diagram above is showing Mendel's theory. He made his discovery while working with peas in his garden. He discovered that all genes come in pairs, and every offspring receive one from each parent. That is why Mendel is known as the  father of genetics.

Question: how does your body choose which gene you take from each parent? ]]> 2021-09-15 09:42:28 UTC https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742239815 https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742243191 Skin is the largest organ in the human body made up of water, lipids, proteins and many more chemicals and minerals. 

Question: What is the reason we have skin?

Question: Is this really considered pregnancy?]]> 2021-09-15 09:45:52 UTC https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742246547 https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742247369 Genes are made up of DNA, every person has two copies of each gene, one inherited from each parent.

Question: How does one gene dominate the other gene? ]]> 2021-09-15 09:46:22 UTC https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742247369 https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742248482 A single square inch of skin has about 19 million cells and up to 300 sweat glands. Your skin is its thickest on your feet (1.4mm) and thinnest on your eyelids (0.2mm). The skin renews itself every 28 days. Your skin constantly sheds dead cells, about 30,000 to 40,000 cells every minute! 

Question: why dose it need so many cells]]> 2021-09-15 09:47:02 UTC https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742248482 https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742253071 Predators such as cheetahs, go specifically for preys like gazelles, I'm so fascinated about how smart they are when it comes to hunting down a gazelle, how they hind behind a bush or a rock just to hunt it down despite how fast the gazelle runs. 

Question: Why doesn't a cheetah go for other animals easier to hunt down like bugs?

As the blood goes back the the heart it doesn't have as much oxygen, making it darker. 


Question: Why is deoxygenated blood darker than oxygenated blood?

All types of dinosaurs were able to dominate all other species. Then after their extinction event, they lived on as birds allowing mammals to take over.

Question: So why didn't they take over again after the extinction event if they were strong enough to dominate over an entire era?]]> 2021-09-15 09:50:42 UTC https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742254512 yousef5658 https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742254572 The theory of evolution is based on the idea that all species are related and gradually change over time. Evolution relies on their being genetic variation in a population which affects the physical characteristics  of an organism.

Question: why does this happen over time?]]> 2021-09-15 09:50:45 UTC https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742254572 saud4866 https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742255437 DNA is the genetic code of every living being on this planet. it is what makes us us. DNA is what allows us to function correctly and can hold specific  genetic codes in them

Question: how does this collision happen?]]> 2021-09-15 09:52:04 UTC https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742256992 https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742259268 Antibiotics are known as an anti-infective substance that are used against bacteria, otherwise known as bacterial infections. They either eliminate bacteria or make it tough for it to grow back. 

Question: How do antibiotics destroy bacteria cells in our body?]]> 2021-09-15 09:53:32 UTC https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742259268 https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742268440 The red blood cells in our body help us creat collagen which forms the foundation for new tissue. The new tissue then starts to fill the wound where new skin starts to form.

Question:How do wounds heal themselves? ]]> 2021-09-15 09:59:06 UTC https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1742268440 https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1748415680 Like all other living things plants also need to reproduce in order to keep their race of plants alive in future generations. Reproduction is the biological process of producing offspring of the same type and species.  

Question: How does the process of plant reproduction start?]]> 2021-09-17 11:17:17 UTC https://padlet.com/phillipss34/wjsrvriexoeyaipz/wish/1748415680
