Answer the following questions while analyzing the Nutrition Labels:
Reflect and Synthesize
| Answers: 1. I learned that the same measurement can be so different. 17g of sugar is kind of a lot but nothing compared to lots of sodas. But 17g of fat is a lot that could be almost half of your fat intake for a day! 2. Tomato soup not counting what ever the "Natural Flavors" that are claimed to be in the soup nothing in it is from an animal. 3.The tomatoes came from a (tomato) plant 4. The pet and human food labels were organized differently the pet food had the ingredients at the top. But the human food had ingredients at the very bottom. I think it is organized this way because we want to pick food with good ingredients. Humans don't care what chemicals there food has they just want to know how much fat, cholesterol, protein, etc. their is. 5. I saw a squirrel on our nature walk and they eat acorns. I think that squirrels get energy from the calories, they get a healthy amount of fat, some potassium, a tiny bit of fiber, and some carbohydrates. Answers: 1. Food provides animals with energy and matter. Energy helps the animals do work and matter is what makes it grow. 2. The pet food and human food have some of the same nutrients because they both need certain nutrients. Humans and pets might also need some nutrient the other one doesn't. 3. Pet food having more calories isn't necessarily always the best option. A higher calorie count means more energy so pet owners may think that they should find a high calorie food so they can provide their pets with lots of energy. 4.The matter in food is what helps us grow and repair our muscles. Matter is to our body as bricks are to houses matter is what takes up space and makes up our bodies. 5. The energy in our food keeps us warm. Energy makes us warm as a bi product of the energy. 6.When energy enters an animal it can transfer into growth, warmth, motion, or body repair. So the energy we take in can help us grow, stay warm, repair damaged muscles, and help us move, think and any work our body has to do. 7. In the milk below there are 160 calories worth of energy. To find how much energy is in something you must burn it one calorie is a kilogram of water heated at 1 degree Celsius you use this formula to find the total amount of energy which we then call calories. 8. The matter in milk is calcium. Milk has 30% of your daily calcium in it so 1 cup of milk gives you a good amount of matter to grow. |

Did you know that our bodies create about a gallon of mucus in just two days! I do. In fact, I know a lot of other interesting information about the human body, and YOU WILL TOO if you read my paper! Within this document, you will find six different body system essays. Within this document, you will find six different body system essays including the muscular, skeletal, circulatory, respiratory, digestive, and nervous systems, which all work together to operate our body. All of these systems have different components, each with their unique functions that help keep us alive. However, each of these systems cannot operate alone - they need each other to be successful. For example, the nutrients gathered by the digestive system get distributed throughout the body in the circulatory system! Over the previous 12 weeks, we gathered information, organized our thoughts, and paraphrased what trusted websites taught us about each system. We worked with responsibility partners and our papers definitely benefited from the collaboration. Just like the human body system rely on the other systems, we relied on each other to improve our writing and our process. The following is the result of our hard work...
Skeletal System.
Our skeletal system is made up of 206 bones. These bones work together to provide our body with support so that we can stand, help us move so we can walk around, and protect our vital organs like our heart and brain! Our bones even make and store blood cells for our circulatory system! Without our bones, we would be nothing more than a pile of skin, organs, and muscles on the floor. We wouldn’t be able to move and our organs wouldn’t be safe!
Our bones are made up of many layers. These layers are important because we need our bones to be strong, yet lightweight. In order to achieve this goal, the outside layer of bone is made up of solid, compact bone that makes our bones strong and dense. The next layer of bone is called cancellous bone (a.k.a. spongy bone.) This layer allows our bones and allows our bones to be lightweight and transitions us from compact bone into bone marrow. Bone marrow is a thick and spongy section in the middle of bone where red and white blood cells are formed. Finally, our bones our covered in a thin membrane called periosteum which is where our muscles attach to bones. So that is how bones are structured in order to keep our bodies strong, yet lightweight.
Although bones are extremely important they wouldn’t be able to move without joints! Joints are places where two or more joints meet. There are several types of joints in our bodies, but we’ll just focus on four of them. The first type of joint is called a hinge joint. Just like the...

List potential problems as you read about them in your book. Also be thinking about other problems not mentioned that we should be considering. Write a journal entry about what you learned from the perspective of your persona. Be "in character" while writing and express some of your concerns & worries in your writing. Include some of the other personas in your writing to make it feel more real. Publish live and then comment on others' writing. | Problems:
I am very worried about this trip to Mars there are so many dangers and problems that could kill us! I hope we can solve all or if not most of the problems we will face. I ( as Clothes Maker) will have to make very, very, warm clothing so that no one freezes. I am worried about finding water if it is all frozen in the ground or water vapor in the air. I guess we better hope our Water Expert Habiba Chisisi knows what she's doing. I have no idea what we can do to prevent blowing up because of the low pressure. Hopefully our Spacesuit Engineer Simon Müller can figure that out or else were doomed. I am very nervous about the dangers on Mars but I am also excited to go to Mars. I think that together we will be able to solve the problems we face and survive on Mars. |
