Today in Mr. Finleys class we did...

First we checked that everyone had there homework. The homework from last night was to go on his webpage and then the homework was under the homework thing. Then you had to click on the Monday- aTranslation and then there was a link to this website. There was also this like example and a paragraph. For homework we had to sum up the paragraph.
Going over the homework. Suming the
What does the term script me for you? he asked. Some of the answers were...persive writing. John Hancok, page, feather pen, the band, transcripts. Most people think of the word script as....writing. Transcript means writing and coping. The transcript of this class is when we rewrote the symbols on a different sheet of paper. On the homework website they colorful things are the nuclitides. Then we did the simulation. We just transcripbed the RnA. He askedd what happened to the Dna. Also what happened to the RnA to make the Dna. What would happen after the Rna is already made? Answer: it would have to.... zip back up . If the Rna left there would be a broken up, just floating around. Durind dna replecation the whole thing unzipps forever. Why would we try to make more dna? Where is dna? Where would we find it? He asked. It would be the same in every part of your body. We need Rna to do everything. From sending our brain signals. Or to tell us that our eyes are blue. Rna is the real thing, but dna is the code that sends the coppied message. what does it mean to translate something. Sean said to decode it. To make it easy to understand. The rna goes into the cytoplasm and then goes to, the ribosomes. The point of protein synthesis is, it makes a protein. Proteins are made up of amino acids. Amino acids are made up of molecules. Molecules are made up from adoms. We know what amino acids we neeed by the order of the nucletides. 3 mucletides are codons.
Here is a pic of Dna

At the beginning of class Mr. Finley chacked if we had done the homework. He then talked about how we should read over things multiple times to make sure we get what we are reading. He said we can also write things down and use the pictures provided to help you understand. We continued the notes that we had started on Thursday. We learned all about DNA and how only some kinds go together. Adenine and Thymine go together and Cytosine and Guanine go together. Then we moved on to how DNA replicates. We said that the parts of DNA seperate and other parts of DNA that are floating in the nucleus attach to the parts that seperated. That replicates it and makes more DNA. 50% of the DNA is new and 50% of it is old. It is called semiconservative because it saves half of the old DNA.

Science Class

First we came into class. Then we review the rules of the activity that we started yesterday. The objective of the game is to get the one group to say the message in English, but they can not talk. In the beginning the group that couldn't talk sent a message to us asking what we did. We told them that we can decoded things. Then the group that couldn't talk sent us the message. We decoded the message and sent it to the group that needed to read it out loud. They didn't now what to read it at first. We sent them a message saying to read it out loud. We had won the game. Then we answered some questions on the whiteboard. What part of the cell was table A? The answer is they was a nucleus because they started with the original message and had to transfer it and copy it. Also it sends signals to the organelles, like they did in the game. And the nucleus copies DNA just like they had to copy the message. Second question was what did the message represent? It represented DNA. The nucleus stores DNA like blueprints. The last question was what were the purpose of the rules? The answer is so it was like a real cell. The nucleus can't move just like group A. The kids sitting in a circle was the membrane of the nucleus. Only a copy of DNA can move like the copy of a message. They couldn't talk because the membrane can't communicate. Next we started to take notes. The nucleic membrane has little pores in it for transportation. DNA can come in different forms. There is Chornatin which is like twirled spaghetti. There is Chromosomes which is like two rubber bands rolled up. Lastly there is a Double Helix, which is like a twisted ladder. A section of each Chromosome is called a gene, which has traits. DNA stands for deoy ribo-nucleic acid. It is basically two sugar strings twisted. It was a good day. We took some fast notes, but got to finish our game which was fun.

First Mr. finley talked about how ATP is needed by plants and animals to move. The substitute teacher yesterday was wrong about anaerobic respiration creating Beer as a product. It creates Lactic Acid. Glucose can be used for cellular respiration, a part to grow, or stored as fat. In order for a plant to grow it needs to take in xCO2, and releases xO2. This creates another cell. The bigger the plant the more CO2 it needs to create the additional cell. This is how a plant grows. If you were here at the day of Mr. Barret (sub), then just discard an information he gave you. If you use his information you will do badly on quizes, and you will confuse yourself. (In the picture you are looking at a glucose molecule. The red balls, representing oxygen atoms, are in the process of breaking down glucose). However if glucose isnt broken down it can't be turned into ATP. Oxygen is needed to break it down. After the oxygen is used to break down the glucose it is released. Photosynthesis uses light, water and Carbon Dioxide to create the glucose and the Oxygen. This makes them related. The products of photosynthesis are the reactants of Cellular Respiration. We also talked about how temperature is caused by how much we face the sun. In the winter we don't face the sun. At our warmest time of the year we directly face the sun. Some scientists understand advanced science but not basic science like Stephen. He made this argument and was proved wrong. Then we talked about the difference between Breathing and Cellular respiration. We were told that breathing gets the oxygen to the cells, and then cells take the oxygen and the glucose to repirate or to respire. Also blood is red when you bleed because it is mixing with the oxygen in the air. when blood is pumbed to th cells the blood is red because it has oxygen in it. Without the oxygen or when the blood is being pumped away from organs and cells the blood is blue. Next we played a game. However we did not finish the game.

Today we started science class with giving Mr.Finley our lab reports. We then said that gasses and liquids can be considered as fluids. We then looked at the homework and said that the hotter the water the more respiration will occur. Therefore that would mean that a balloon would blow up more with more than one that lets off less respiration, but with too hot water nothing can make nothing happen.I have attached a photo above to show what I mean. The blue balloon represents cold water, the green shows room temperature water. The yellow means a little warmer than room temperature, and finally the red balloon is very warm water. We also looked at a graph, this graph represented how as the temperature increases so does the respiration. The graph starts at the bottom and as the temperature increases so does the amount of respiration, which in the graph shows it in climbing.We then said with cold water, the particles are not killed but slowed down. With the hot water it burns the particles literally to death.We then we talked about how anerobic respiration is a type of acid.
