My Secret Mission : Experience & Results

A week ago , Ms wells gave me a random task she gave me a paper that had my " Mission " in it. The task at hand was to try and investigate that whether they can feel someone watching them . That person would be me. So my first attempt was Lyndon . This was done during maths with the help of Ms Wells as I didn't get it at first . But after doing it I had to gather data on what Lyndon felt. It was all about sense. Lyndon at first felt unsure . First we were looking at him and he got it right the first time. But in the second attempt he got it wrong. We looked away and he thought we were still looking at him. So he felt unsure whether he should say we were looking at him or not. But he ended up getting it wrong. 
So what did I get from this? I believe that the target will feel unsure cause he or she cannot see anything.

Sharing my Learning (Year 10 Science)

What have I learned in science? Around now , We've been learning about the 6 essential nutrients to the human body. The 6 essential nutrients are Carbohydrates , Protein , Fat , Water , Vitamins and Minerals. Yesterday , Me and Lyndon had to choose to work on a presentation to showcase what two of the 6 nutrients are. Vitamins and Minerals . One thing I've learned from that is they are both relatable to one another building up the human body but they do their jobs a little differently.  Vitamins also help form and maintain healthy bones , teeth , soft tissue , mucus membranes and skin.
" Vitamin B6 " is also responsible for forming red blood cells and maintain brain function. I explained earlier that the Vitamins and Minerals do their job a little differently , And this is why. Minerals too help your body grow , develop and stay healthy . The body itself uses different functions. From building bones to transmitting nerve impulses. Some are often used to make hormones and maintain a healthy heartbeat. Another thing I've learned is that your body needs certain minerals to build up strong bones and teeth and in return turn the food you eat into energy. With vitamins a healthy , balanced diet , should provide you with all the minerals your body needs.

Science Term 2 : What Have We Learned?

For the last few weeks and so , We have been learning abut several subjects . Cells and Microscopes . Microscopes came first but It was more or so about seeing cells . We used microscopes to see a lot more than just a tiny object . Me , Lyndon and Montel were the first to nail a hd view on really small words using the microscopes.

Learning about cells was what was going on inside our bodies . There was more than just eating , swallowing , and so on . Like the nuclear membrane . The barrier around the nucleus . The core of the cell . We learned several more things about the cells . And it was very surprising for us to learn. 

We also learned about living things , How they work and how they function. All of this coming near to the end of the term with a whole lot of exams ahead of me . Of us .

Another thing I learned , 
M - Movement            G - Growth
R - Respiration            R - Reproduction
S - Sensitivity              E - Excretion
                                     N - Nutrition


To be honest , The term went really fast.

Science : Amoeba Questions

How does an Amoeba Grow? :
They are single-celled organisms
that grow and reproduce asexually,
Replicating through both binary
fission and sporulation.


How does an amoeba move ? :
Amoebas move their body by
changing body from liquid to
solid in the form of pseudopods.
When they want to move their
pseudopods become a liquid
form and then move it into the
direction of travel . After their
pseudopods get to where they
want to go , they harden into a
solid form and their body into a
liquid to let it catch up.


How does an Amoeba
reproduce? Amoebas reproduce
by a process called binary
fission . Meaning that it
splits itself into two Identical
copies.
