Respiration


Respiration- the process by which multi cellular organisms capture and excrete the gaseous fuel and waste of cellular respiration, absorbing oxygen and disposing of carbon dioxide. That's the scientific version of the meaning. Here's the Michael Version of it, Respiration- the process that makes you live. At least that's what I thought it was. Today I learned that I was so Wrong. The process of breathing is so complicated, but I'm so smart i can summarize it easily. Respiration- the process which oxygen comes into your lungs, feeds cells oxygen, then exhales carbon dioxide. That is my summary. Not the best summary in the world but it gets right to it. See ya next time bye.

Nutrition




Ok, what is nutrition? Nutrition is the thing that keeps your body healthy. Lets start with the top. Fats, oils and sweets are great for carbs. You can have them once in awhile but not all the time because you will get Fat!!!! The next thing is milk products. Milk, yogurt, cheese the list goes on and on. The great thing about them is that they have awesome amounts of calcium. Isn't that KOOL!!!! Next is Meat and Beans. There are tons of different meats and beans. All of them give you super amounts of protein (A.K.A muscle). 3rd is my favorite, fruits and vegies. There a tasty and healthy snack and give you vitamins to make everything in your body healthy, AWESOME I know! Last but certainly not least Grains. They give you so much fiber you cant explain it. Fiber is healthier for your heart and your digestive track. If you eeat these foods on a daily basis you will live a long and healthy life. BYE!!!!!!!!

This Week







Today we learned about the Food Chain and the Energy Pyramid. Its a huge part of the Life Cycle. First the sun makes the Grass, then a Rabbit eats the grass, then a Hawk eats the rabbit, finally the decomposers eat the Hawk. So the decomposers turn all those nutrients from the animals and grass and turns it in to grass. Isn't that COOL!!!!!!!! I dont know what other adventures I will have in Mr. Imhoofs class. STAY TUNED!!!!
