1. The food chain above. The grass gets energy from the sun to grow and the cow gets energy from grass. The wolf and grizzly bear both can get energy from eating cows. This is a very simple food chain but it is still a food chain.
​2. Yes. I think this because it is different plants and animals eating each other, which is a system. A food chain can also be a very large system.
3. If a plant or animal disappears from the food web, the plant or animal that species eats will become more populated. It will become more populated because the species that eats it won't eat it anymore. Also the specie that eats the specie that got extinct will become less populated because that species relies on the species that is extinct.
4. When a living organism eats something, they get nutrients from it and store some of those nutrients away. And when predator comes and eats the animal, they get the nutrients that that animal had stored away.
5. This is pretty much same answer as 4. A living organism eats something stores some of the nutrients away. Later on a predator eats that animal and gets the nutrients for body warmth and motion. 
6. I think it is stored in a living organism's body. If they desperately need nutrients, then they will use the nutrients that haven't been used.

1. We find energy (calories) at the very top of the nutrition label. It is the the second nutrition fact.
2. Vitamins are at the bottom of the page. Carbohydrates are ninth on the list. The amount of proteins is located at the bottom of the page. Fat is third on the list. Iron is located in the same section as vitamins.
3. At the very bottom of the page.

1. Where can we locate the list of ingredients?
2. How do we find the percentage of different types of matter in the food?
   

1. The list of ingredients can be found at the top of the nutrition label.
2. The percentage is located at the right of the ingredient.

1. There are percentages of how much food you need of that day. Also there are many different nutrients and minerals in foods.
2. Tomato soup. None of the ingredients came from animals.
3. tomato puree comes from tomatoes and soybeans come from soybeans. "according to Google, a soybean is a plant." Carrot fiber comes from carrots. Carrots are also plants according to Google.
​4. Pet food labels don't have grams, they have percents. Pet food labels also don't have nutrition facts. Instead, they have guaranteed analysis. Also on the pet food label, they have the ingredients at the top, not like the human food label at the bottom. There are so much differences in pet and human food labels.
5. I will chose a rabbit. I think a rabbit eats grass, fruits, and vegetables. A rabbit gets fiber from grass, fruits, and vegetables. A rabbit get most of it's important nutrients from fruits and ​vegetables.

1. Food provides animals and humans with energy, important nutrients and minerals, we need. The energy from the food helps us repair our body, maintains warmth, helps us grow, and helps us move around. Overall, food is very important to humans and animals and it would be impossible to survive without it.
​2. They both have proteins and fats. Although, the pet food label has crude protein and fats. I have no idea what crude is but they both have some sort of fats and proteins in them.
3. I could be good and can be bad. Calories are measured by energy in foods. If you want your dog to not be so hyper, give him less calories. If you want your dog to be more energetic, give him more calories. 
"This is what I think."
​4. Protein, carbohydrates, fats, and vitamin C. Also I was thinking maybe potassium because it prevents muscle cramps but the first four I am sure that they help repair our bodies and grow. Also maybe calcium because it makes us have strong bones which I think of it as our bones are growing.
​5. Calories, fiber, and antioxidants. These are the only three I could really find out. This was a lot  harder to find than number 4.
​6. This energy transfers into animals to make them survive. Without food, we would die. Food doesn't just fill us up, it gives us energy to walk around and do things.
7. This is a tough question. I went to How Stuff Works and I got statistics of how much grams of nutrients make up a calorie. 44 calories in 11g of carbohydrates. 32 calories in 8g of protein. 99 calories in 9g of fat. The total amount of energy in milk is 175 calories. But according to the nutrition label, there is only 160 calories.
​8. Solids or Liquids? I am thinking that they are talking about this kind of matter.

Poem 1: The poem is about a boy skateboarding and the subject is how the boy controls the skateboard.
Poem 2: The poem is about a family playing games and reading when June bugs are watching them. The subject is how June bugs can be scary

Poem 1: The text is in the shape of a skateboard. Another shape is possibly a head.
Poem 2: The text has breaks that wants you to read more. In my opinion every break is a dun, dun, dun.

1. Choose 2 personal items to explain why you're bringing them.
2. Explain how you plan to use the work supplies (in paragraph form)

1. Probably my two biggest items are an Iphone 5c and a picture of my family. This is important for me because I can call anybody if there is an emergency. The Iphone 5c is also a very tiny phone which can be useful for how much we are bringing. I also just realized that if I have a phone, I can play games on there! The Xbox one and all the video games I don't need. A picture of my family will be useful because if I get homesick I can look at the picture of my family. I would also like to take off this item because you can facetime with your family on the Iphone. If I can't get connection when i'm on a different planet, though I am keeping the picture of my family.

1. When the paper ball was thrown at the transparent sheet of paper, I blinked and sort of flinched and leaned back. When my partner, Tyler got hit with the paper ball blinked and squinted really hard. However, Andrew just blinked. I think Andrew had the least amount of reaction.
2. The reflex would have made you blinked to protect something going in your eye. Also I described that I flinched and leaned back and this will help without the transparency because it will help you doge or not get hit as hard with the paper ball.

1.  Yes. Hearing was more harder than sense and touch. I think this because we both chose poor phrases or noises that lasted a while. I said "Lebron James" and Alex did some sort of cat screeching voice. These lasted a little longer than other things people would say and it distracted our reaction to catching the ruler.
2. We could smell our snacks and right away when the person who would catch the ruler would smell the snack and the other person would drop the ruler. I think this would be more difficult but it would work.
3. You could do something similar to the sense. You could eat the snack instead of smelling it.
4.  When your partner was touching you, blinking at you, or yelling a weird voice indicating that he is going to drop the ruler, your eyes, skin, or ears send a message to the brain saying that Alex is going to drop the ruler.

1. Do you think the nervous system responded to catching the ruler and blinking in the same way? Why or why not? Were the senses used in both? Were muscles used in both? Did you have to think about both actions?

1. Yes. I think this because we both used our sense of sight to see the paper ball flying at us and when we were trying to catch the ruler. Muscles were also used in both because your muscle helped you hold on to the ruler and your muscles also helped you with blinking your eyes. No. I didn't because when you had a paper ball flying at you you wouldn't just think about blinking, it is an instant reflex to blink to protect your eyes. It's the same way with the ruler when your partner made you use one of the senses to catch the ruler, the very second he touched you, blinked, or made a weird voice, that is an instant reflex to realize that he is dropping the ruler.

Then answer these questions as well:
1. Can you feel it when your pupils dilate?
2. Do you have any control over your pupils when they dilate?
3. What do we call this when a reflex happens without our control?
4. Why do our pupils get bigger in the dark and smaller in the light?
5. How does this reflex protect our eyes?

e1. Yes I can. When the lights went out, after a while I felt my eyes get strained. Your pupils get bigger to see in the dark and having big pupils means that it is harder to see. Seeing in the dark puts twice as much strain on your eyes than seeing in normal light.
2. No. Only if you count when you turn off the lights and on to change how big and small your pupil is.
3. It is called an involuntary or automatic action.
4. Our pupils get bigger in the dark because it is harder to see in the dark. Pupils help you see and they need to expand to see better. Our pupils get smaller in the light because they don't want your eyes to get strained. You are pretty much expanding your pupils for no apparent reason and even after a while in the dark, my eyes got strained so I can't imagine having big pupils in the light. I take that back when I go to the eye doctor, They expand my pupils to look into my eyes and it usually lasts a while. When I walk outside I can literally see nothing and I scream, " MOM I NEED SUNGLASSES! " because you are trying to over see when you have light and you can't see and you are sensitive to the light like a vampire.
5. This reflex protects your eyes because your pupils get bigger when you're in the dark and is helps you see your surroundings in the dark. Your pupils get smaller when your outside on a sunny day to protect you from the sun blinding you.
