Delivering What Muscles Need

What did you do and what did you learn? What was fun? What was tough?

I learned that starting with walking, every time, it went up 20 times each time. I saw that I kept getting faster each time. What was fun about it is that I was getting to pretending to be a doctor. I also got to use a stethscop. I got one from my doctor when I was turning 7 and I loved using it! So I was glad that I got to use one again. It was

Which activities increased your heart rate the most?
Which activities increased your heart rate the least?
Was the order in which you ranked the activities accurate? (It's good to be wrong!) Explain.
What changes did you notice about your heart rate as you became more active?
Why do you think your heart rate changed when you were more active? What inference can you make? (Use pages 65–66 of your reference book to help you answer this question.)

1. The active that increased my heart rate the most was the running.
2. The active that decreased my heart rate the most was the sitting one.
3. I honestly don't remember, but I think that did put it in the right order because it makes more sense. I do member that I increased it 20times each time except for the first time.
4. I noticed that every time, my heart rate went up about twenty times. Like I said in the answer beforehand, all went up twenty times except for the first. It went up 22 times on the first time.
5. I think that w's moving a lo an m heart had to get the oxygen to the places that it needs, so it was pumping blood faster.

Was it difficult to use the same technique throughout the whole experiment?
How did you hands and fingers feel BEFORE, DURING, and AFTER the experiment?
Describe how your data changed over time.
What errors or inconsistencies might have affected your results?
Why did your hand strength change over the course of this experiment?
How do you think your muscle cells get oxygen, nutrients, and water to make the energy they need to function?
What do you think you could have done to prevent your muscles from tiring?
What should you do if you experience muscle fatigue in the future?

It was not because I move those mussels inn my hand a lot and I am used to that pain and technique.
I think that my hands felt fine at the binging and during the experiment, my hands felt a little sore. Then after the experiment, my hands felt better than they did during the experiment.
The data changed over time by going up,down,up,up,down,up,up,down,down,then up again. It looked like I tried hard, than I took a break.
I think one time I might have got started too late, o and that I was trying hard before and that I was not trying as hard after.
I think that my hand strength changed over time because I don't rally use my 2 finger muscles and it wasn't worked hard or that hard before.
I think that there is a system that you could use. I think that there is a system that travels through you that can get the oxygen that you breath in to all your working muscles. I think that when you breathing = deeply, your body is getting the oxygen that you need faster.
I think that my muscles did not try
er that much because I used a stragty that I didn't tier them that much, that stragty was trying hard for too and then trying not hard for 1.
I think I should do what I did today and try hard for 2 and have a brake for 1. than my muscles won't get that much tried.

Creating a Elbow Joint

How many bones did your model need? How many muscles did it need?
How were your pretend muscles similar and different to real muscles?
What would happen if the ligaments of the models were overstretched or torn? How would it affect the way the models could operate?
Explain what ligaments, tendons, and cartilage are.
What made this activity fun?
What made this activity challenging?

There were 3 bones that were needed. But the number muscles that we needed were 2 muscles
They were the same because they had the same shape, but they were a different texture and material.
If they overstretched, the muscles would not be able to pull the arm. It would be very hard to move the bones.
Ligaments are the thick straps that connects bones to each other. Tendons connects the muscles to bones. Cartilage is a pad that protects bones from rubbing against each other.
It was fun to try different materials with my partner and work together to make our model.
It was challenging to keep everything in place when we were trying to attach new things. It was also hard to keep changing things without completely destroying the model.

How Do Our Bones Move

Have you ever injured a joint? (Sprained ankle, dislocated shoulder, tennis elbow, etc.) How did it feel? What things were difficult to do after the injury?
Which of their moveable joints would be the hardest to live without?
What things would be difficult to do without that joint? Why?
If you had to choose one of your moveable joints to live without, which one would it be? Why?
Is there any movement they could do without joints? (I can think of at least one.)

1. I have injured a joint. I have sprained my ankle 2 times, and I have disclosed my nee cap. Because I had it on my leg, for both times, I couldn't walk. When I dislocated my nee cap, I couldn't walk and I fell down at the point that it happens.
2. My group thought that its the jaw. So did everyone else. But I thought that it was the hips. But that was second.
3. Without the jaw, you couldn't talk. I thought that that was only problem and the solution was that you could just write on a piece of paper. But there was something else that I had not thought of. How could you eat!
4. Even though that it 3ed on what the normal person thought, and 4th on what my list said, I would say the knee's. I think that because you could just live in a wheel chair. My favorite sport is tennis and I could still play! There is a thing called Wheelchair tennis and I could do that! There are also crutches and fake legs!
5. I think that you could roll your eye's. Without the knee's or ankles, you could write or move the top of your body! But without any joints, you could press buttons to do everything for you.

How the best day turned into the worst day

“No No No I want the muffin!” I yelled at my mom                                                                            “No! I said no!” My mom yelled

“Now get your waffles!” She said back to me Fine! I thought to myself. Then thanks a big one for making my day turn into the worst day ever. When we got to school, Mr. Solarz was sick and one half of the day was Mrs. Adair and the other half was Mrs. Nelles. So that took my mind off the muffin incident. Next, we had history. Oh I love history.

“who wants to share their stories!?!” Mrs. Adair asked.

“Oh I want to Mrs. Adair I want to!” Keala and I yelled at the same time

“I am going to share MY story first!” Kaela

“Alright, so in my story,....” Bla Bla Bla Bla Bla Bla” Kaela started to say. I was supposed to share.

After lunch, I asked Ryan and Luke to beat up Keala. But of course they didn't. The said that they would only do it for $9,99,99,999.99. Ya, sure, like that is going to happen guys. The only person that has that money is the president and Bill Gates. So they wouldn't do it. This is now the WORST WORST DAY EVER IN THE HISTORY OF DAYS!

It was a half day, so Nico and I walked home and I had to babysit him.

    “I want candy! I want money! I want...” Nico yelled

    “Quiet! I’m trying to listen to my spelling for homework!” I yelled back

Than Nico threw a ball at me.

    “Ha Ha!” Nico said

    “I’m home!” My mom said

    “ Mommy Mommy! Hanna threw a ball at me!” Nico said

    “What No I didn’t! He did!” I yelled

    “Room now!!!!!!!!!!” My Mom yelled at me

I could just see this being the WORST WORST WORST DAY EVER IN THE HISTORY OF DAYS!

    “Hanna! Get in the shower!” My mom yelled!

Wosh! I washed my hair and was going to put conditioner in.

    OMG! There is mold in my conditioner! Great!

After the mold incident, I was going to bed. 9:11. I guess I’ll make My wish!

Well if I could have anything in the world, it would be that there are No rules, laws or anything that has to do with that! 9:12

The Next day, I woke up. OMG! It’s 9:12 in the morning! Why didn’t my mom wake me up?!?! Why didn’t my alarm go off? Why is it still dark outside? Where is Nico, Mom and Dad? Why..? What ever!

“Mom can I have a muffin after I get ready?” I Yelled

“What ever you want! As long as no one took it!” She said back. Ok, that was was weird! Shake it off! Well, I can finally have my muffin! Where is it! Wait is that stolen! UGH!!!!!

“Where did school go?!” I yelled No one answered. I’ll just walk to school, in the rain, GREAT! Beep Beep!

    “Hanna! Want a ride! I just stole, I mean GOT a brand new blue mustang! With purple stripes and purple leather! Can’t pass this offer up!” Emily yelled

    “Where is Nicky! Is he with you?” I yelled back

    “Oh, I don’t know! But I think that all the boys are in LA-LA land!” Emily answered “But can you answer my question! Are you coming or not! Ten, nine, eight....”

    “Yes! Ok, I’ll come!” I answered. So after that, we went to school.

“Oh Yay! We have Mrs. Nells and Mrs. Adair for our sub today!” I said to Emily

“I don’t think so...” Emily replied.

“Richey! Quiet! Pink shirt! Stop playing with your pencil!” Mrs. Wanger said.

“Yeppey! Now this is the BEST DAY EVER!” Emily said but in a sarcastic way. Then it was time for We The People (WTP), My Fav. subject! But then, Madi left, then Kendall, Alison then Stacy. Then Nicole. “Wait, we can leave!?!” I asked in a whisper.

“What are we talking about?” Mrs Wagner said but playing along in a whisper voice. “No one is leaving! Get in your seats! Now, where is Richey! Richey, Rikey!”

“Um, Mrs Wagner, I think it’s Demetri and not Richey or Rikey.” Emily said.

“Go sit in the corner and think about what you just said!” Mrs. Wagner yelled at Emily

“But she didn't do anything wrong all she did was...” I started to say

“You! QUIET! NOW CHILDREN, YOU NEED TO LEARN YOUR MANNERS! STOPPING BEING RUDE AND BE THANKFUL THAT YOU HAVE AN AMAZING AMAZING SUB LIKE ME! NOW, QUIET!!!!!!” Mrs. Wanger yelled, Ring, Ring. Ringgggggg

“I’ll get it!” I said

“ No! You have to sit in the corner!” Mrs. Wanger said.

“That all to do them.” Mrs. Wanger mumbled,

“Yes, yes, yes. Well I don’t care how loud I am! It’s your fault that you were at the primary door Mr. Badney! I am not fired! Hello! Hello.” Bang! Mrs. Wanger slammed the phone back on it’s hook, “ Go get the laptop cart!” Mrs. Wanger yelled at me

“But it’s not even my job it’s Em....” I started to say when Mrs. Wanger cut me off.

“I don’t care! Get it!” Mrs. Wanger yelled. So I went to get the laptop cart. I was going into Mrs. A’s room when the kids weren’t there. There were no teachers, kids or anything. All except for a post it note and a lot of things on the ground. So I read the post it note. It said...... ‘I am sorry that you had to have Mrs. Wanger as a sub, but I called her. I told Mrs. Nells and Mrs. Adair that you were in her class, Emily. I told Mrs. Wanger who you are and I wanted you to take this responsibility. Oh, FYI, I am not sorry that that you have Mrs. Wanger as your sub. I have Mrs. Nells and Mrs. Adair. Son Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha....!

-Nick

P.S. If found, give to Emily G, Mr. Solarz (Mrs. Wanger), room 138.’

Oh great! I thought! Now I have to clean up all the laptops!

    “Where are the laptops!!” Mrs. Wagner yelled from across the hall.

    “I can’t get them! They are are are a...”

    “Are what?!?” Mrs. Wagner said.

    “Never mind!” I yelled. Than, I ran out the door. I started to run home in the cold. I ran and ran and ran and went into my bed. I started to cry.

“Hanna, Hanna HANNA!”

I woke up and Nico was calling me. Phe, Now I know what life would be like if there were no rules, laws or government.`
