Core Competency: Social Responsibility 

When working on my innovation project, my group worked well together. We all managed to agree on 1 thing . We made sure to include everyone in our innovation; and if there was ever a time where a group member was feeling discouraged we would make them encouraged by telling them they can do it. we divided responsibility throughout the group in order to have fair work for each person. After completing our project, I feel like I learned  how to work and collaborate  with people in different ways. One thing i wish i did differently was trying to encourage my group not to change our topic a bunch of times and then having little to no time to do it, This is why i think next time my Social Responsibility will be better,

Collaboration Reflection

We created a wrist wallet , and a funny power point presentation that explained Our wrist wallet and what “people think if it” . Afterwards we took the feedback from the Dragons and discussed how the Circuit  could be improved

I think our entire group was really good at collaborating ideas and agreeing on one idea. We all shared our strengths and decided how they would be most useful for this project, and so that we would all have an equal part.

Experience Debrief

What I liked about this project was being able to create things that we would have not been able to by a person and think about how we could help other people’s needs. Something’s that I would do differently is trying to focus more on what people need. Choose one specific topic so that we do not have to change the topic and not get enough time to work on it.

What do animal cells look like under the microscope?

Animal Cells are much more rounder  than a plant cell, it is more spread out and its a lot more smaller then  your average plant cell, when your onion cell is stuck together and it is long and it is really difficult to find dots in the middle while the animal cell looks visible that you can see the dot in the middle.

 

What cell structures are visible? What do plant cells look like under the microscope? What cell structures are visible?

 You can see the nucleus in the middle of a cell and the cytoplasm that is surrounding the outside of the cell. The cell membrane that outlines the cytoplasm that surrounds the nucleus and a Nucleus Membrane that outlined the outside of a Nucleus inside of the cytoplasm

 How can you tell plant cells and animal cells apart (if you only see them under the microscope)? We used methylene blue in the animal cell.

a animal cell has to a greater degree a hover shape than a plant cell. I know since when we looked at our two pictures. I quickly could tell that it was a plant cell because I can see it doesn’t have a major Vacuole, it is considerably littler than your common plant cell, and that it was not stuck together as much as a plant cell.

We used Methane Blue Why was it important to treat animal cells with this compound? 

so we could see the cells in the animal cell more clearly

Why didn’t we use it on the plant cells?

Because we need the Methane Blue chemical to see the cells, if we used it on  plant cells it could possibly destroy the cell.

Here are 3 very important things I learnt in Science Electricity.

  1. The difference between proton, electron, and neutron. I learned that protons were positive, electrons were negative, and neutrons were neutral. I also learned that electrons move easier because they are lighter. It was important to learn this if we did not learn this, then we would not know that negatively charged objects would attract to positively charged objects and repel negatively charged objects and vice versa.
  2.  I learned in Static Electricity about  Charging by conduction and induction. I learned that you can charge objects without even touching them. It was important to learn this, because if we didn’t learn this, we would only know that you could charge objects by touching them.
  3. Another thing I learned was that neutral objects are attracted to charged objects. Before learning this, I thought neutral objects would not react to positively or negatively charged objects. This is important because if we didn’t know this, then we wouldn’t know if it would attract or repel a charged object.

i think the lab that helped me the most was the Van de graaff generator, because it showed me how electricity flows through the body into the hair. Also, when we discharged the generator with the rod, it was helpful because it showed me that electricity flowed through the rod to the ground.

1. Genes are found on DNA and DNA strands forms chromosomes

they all make up a human being

2.the licorice represents the surgar/phosphate backbone

b.yellow mashmellow represents (A) or adenine

orange mashemllow represents (T) or Thymine

pink mashmellow represents (C) or cytosine

green mashmellow represents (G) or Guanine

3.it helped us understand the structure of DNA because we made a model of what it looks like

Define: The metallic pill that we are making has a tiny robot inside that cure disease. The problem that we are trying to solve is curing disease that current technology can not fix. This technology will help people who are sick or ill from diseases. The pill will advance current technology to help doctors to rely on something when they need to fix inside the body.

Discover: This technology is created to fix problems that doctors need help with and because current technology can not fix every disease, it will help figuring out new diseases. The metallic pill will be help to figuring out and curing diseases.

Dream: Our idea was inspired when we were talking about robots and diseases. We hope this pill will help advance current technology to discover more diseases in the future.

Deliver: We plan to deliver this by showing a diagram of what happens when you eat the metallic pill.
