Sharks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!JAWS!!!!!!!

Hey what's up today I'm going to talk about sharks. They they have a really bad reputation for being mean bad and evil because they bite peoples legs and arms off.. Well they do sometimes but it is very rare you guys should not be worried about anything because sharks only attack when they are violated or they are hungry. The main people who get bit by sharks are surfers because sharks confuse them for seals. They don't even like to eat humans they mite nibble you and swim away but like I said don't worry swim in groups and don't go to far out in the ocean when you swim and you will be fine.. Most people are scared of sharks because of this movie and book.

 This movie and this book made everybody scared of sharks and the people who saw the movie told other people and they got scared. What I'm trying to say is stay away from sharks but don't be scared of them :) 

Ok now I'm going to tell you about sharks. Sharks have gills just like any other fish they have perfect site perfect hearing and a perfect sense of smell. In clear water sharks can see there pray from 100 feet away. They can smell a little bit of blood from miles away.YEA WOW!!!. Sharks skin is covered in some sort of tooth like scales called (dermal denticales).  

Before I get into the shark I'm going to talk about I am going to tell you the three main sharks that you need to stay away from!!!! 1st we have the tiger shark , 2nd we have the Great white shark , 3rd we have the bull shark. The tiger shark has stripes going down his back. The great white shark is big and fat. The bull shark has a blunt snout and usually swims in shallow water. All sharks lay eggs and the reproduce sexually when they lay there eggs they either leave them or eat them.

I'm going to talk about one specific shark and that is the tiger shark and this is what it look's like.

They call him a tiger shark because of the things on him that look like stripes. This particular shark is very aggressive and this is one of the sharks that is dangerous if you mess with it SO JUST DON'T MESS WITH IT OK!!!!!!!!! This shark is common in the Atlantic ocean and the Gulf of Mexico. Tiger sharks are really fast swimmers they are known to travel far places in a short amount of time. The tiger shark is 1500 pounds WOW!! They can go up to 13 feet long they can swim up to 30, 35 miles per hour. They eat other sharks , crabs , turtles and fish. They  hunt at night like most sharks do. This is a really cool fact are you ready they can actually change color from green to blue. 


All sharks have a big perpose on earth and stay away from them but don't be scared of them. Just swim in groups and swim close to the shore and you will be fine!!!!!

I hope you enjoyed my blog!!!!!

Fish and what makes them fish!!!!

 Hey today I'm going to talk a little about fish and what makes them fish.. First of all you may think that fish live in water and that's all  well that is true but there is more to it than just where they live. The have gills and gills are like lungs but the let out water after the fish either swallows it or swims with its mouth opened. The fish  whole Circulatory system and when the water is done it comes out the gills.

FISH!!!!

 Some fish fish have scales and some have slimy skin and most fish are vertebrates witch means they have a backbone. The fish have scales because its easier for them to glide threw water another word for glide threw the water is streamlined and that means basically glide.


Another really cool fact about fish is that they sleep I bet you didn't think that they sleep well they do well not the same way as us. Fish don't have eye lids so when they sleep they stay still and their eyes stay opened. Do you see how the fish looks like he is swimming he is not he is asleep and his eyes are closed and he is just floating with the current.

Dolphins a mammal

All fish are cold blooded and  that means that they cant make there own heat as humans we can make our own heat. Some fish are mammals and some fish are not mammals if your a mammal you breath air so we breath air whales breath air and dolphins breath air.




When fish die they can either decnigrate or they turn in to fossils and a fossil is a rock that a fish died on or under and it molds the bones on the rock or fishes skin can just rot off and the bones are just lost in the ocean. 


 When fish die they become buoyant and that means that they rise to the surface because all of the air in the fishes body inflates and makes the fish rise to the surface.

This particular fish was washed up on the shore after it died and floated to the shore.


 Cartilaginous fish have cartilage and it is like bone but it is softer humans have bone here is an example of what a cartilaginous fish looks like

That was fish at the aquarium and it shows different kinds of fish I  think it is AWESOME. 






Lamprey fish are fish that are jaw less and they have teeth on the bottom of there mouth and they latch on to the things they eat and the     
teeth grind them and they eat them they look weird like this

This is the fish 

And this is what the bottom of him looks like

Classification for Animals!!!!!!!!!

Hey today I'm going to talk about classifications for animals and the main one I'm going to talk about is the tiger.

As you can see SPECIES is the last one on the chart well a tiger is gonna be in the species of cores. The reason why it would be in species is because all animals are species so all animals would be in the species category. Now you can probably see the GENUS category   
right above the species category the tiger and allot of other animals would be in that category. The classification for the tiger in the genus category would be ''Panthera'' for example the classification for the dog in this category would be ''Yorkshier terrior''.

This is the tiger also known as the jungle cat...

This is the Siberian tiger and they like to lay under shade and swim in the water.

That video tells what all of the classifications are in a pretty short time.


For the family species it would be called FELIDEA that is a weird word but that's what it is. In the order category it would be called CARNIVORE and that means and animal that eats meat.


For the order species it would be called MAMMAILIEA that again is a interesting name. 

6 Kingdoms~of life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE SIX KINGDOMS OF LIFE!!!!!

What's up!!!! Today I'm going to talk about the 6 kingdoms of life and how they are classified in to different Kingdoms....

Plant Kingdom-Are made up of many cells that have an outer cell wall another thing they have is a membrane bound nucleus.....WHAT... All plants make there food by Photosynthesis. Most of the groups are mosses, flowering plants and conifers.

Fungi Kingdom-Contains single-celled organisms that reproduce by spores. It also has cells that are surrounded by wall's , like plants. Fungi has  no Chlorophyll so basically what that means is that is can't make its own food. Most fungi are decomposed in the food chain one celled-organism is (unicellular ed)

Protists Kingdom-Is made up of  Unicellular which is one celled. The nucleus of a protists cell is enclosed in a nuclear  membrane...WOW.. You learn something new everyday!!!!hahah... Anyway  some prostist such as the paramecium, and the aomeba feed on other living things. Some like algea make there food from photosynthesis.

Archeabacteria Kingdom-This kingdom is only made of one celled organisms. These kind of cells are not called (Prokaryotes). They use energy to grow and develop..... Some can be found in really hot water cause that's how they get there energy for some of them at least. They have been placed into a separate kingdom because it has a different chemical. The way their there genetics material reproduces is different to.

Eubacteria Kingdom-It can not make its own food.. It must find its own food like some of the other kingdoms. They are chemically similar to other kingdoms but not archaebacteria. I know that it is really boring right now but our next kingdom is the animal kingdom and I don't think you will be bored with that.

Animal Kingdom-Is a kingdom that is made up of many cells. These cells have a nucleus that is contained in side a thing called a membrane. As humans we are part of the animal kingdom not the plant kingdom just so that doesn't get confused:). Animals are divided in to groups , invertebrates things with out a backbone and vertebrate's have back bones.   For example snakes are invertebrates because they don't have a backbone. Well a dog is a vertebrate because it does have a backbone.

HOPED U ENJOYED!!!!!!!!!

The change in your life get ready!!!!!!!

Hello there I'm going to teach you about the change,and when i say change I mean puberty. It is the thing that you go threw when you are at an older age like for girls 11,12 and for boy's about 12,13. When you reach puberty you mature,your voice gets deeper, your grow hair under your arms and you grow Brest.


Puberty would be nothing with out the pituitary gland, the pituitary gland is the thing that sits up in your brain about in the center.

That thing that the square is around is the gland it releases chemicals 
into you body when you are ready for them.


Now we are going to talk about the Pancreas.

This is the Pancreas and it is an organ in your belly that lets out hormones and insulin. Your pancreas is really important because without it you could have diseases in your body. The main reason why you need it is because like I said it releases hormones and insulin and you need all of that to live and grow up

That was a short video to make what I was saying in a better way something like that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:-) OK what I'm trying to say is the pancreas is really important so love your pancreas!!!!!!!!!!!!


We are going to move into diabetes you have probably herd of it before. If not pay attention it is a decease that you can either get from eating too much sugar,or you can inherit it from your patents. The people who mainly have it are obese or they don't move around much and eat allot of junk.

Those are diabetes and you really really really don't want to get them!!!!!!!!!!!! But if you do get them don't worry people with diabetes can live a completely normal life you just have't to eat right and you might have to take a shot or and prick in your finger but it doesn't hurt but a little bit and you will get used to it.


We are now moving into the Thyroid Gland and it is just under your wind pipe and your throat.This is the Thyroid and what it does is control your mood, like when your sad or really happy....Like if you just got a new phone or laptop or if you made a 100 on Mr.Sellers test!!!!!!!And if you are sad like if you don't make a 100 on Mr.Sellers test.

  HOPE YOU ENJOYED!!!!!!!!!!!

Digestive system/The gift of taste!!!!!

Hey do you like sandwichs, hamburgers, and cheese burgers and pizza right? Well you wouldn't like any of that stuff if you didn't have taste buds(Papillae)and when ever you eat something little signals to your brain to tell it it what it taste like.Foods tasted on the tongue can be  grouped into four categories.Sweet,sour,salty and bitter.There is another thing that makes you chew and that is your saliva and what it does it moistens the food before it goes down so you don't choke!!!

This is the tongue and the categories of the taste buds...

Next were going to talk about the(Esophagus)The esophagus is the tube that goes from the mouth to the stomach it can be found behind the the windpipe and the heart.The esophagus is made of muscular walls and is about ten inches long in an adult.That was kinda a boring video but it gives you an idea.


              
   Know we are going to talk about the stomach and it looks like this..

The stomach is what your food goes to after you chew an swallow it.The stomach has acid in it called hydrochloric acid and the acid has a mucous lining if it weren't for the mucous lining your stomach would of burned up that would have not been fun anyway the acid that is in your stomach can burn a hole in your carpet!!!!!!!!!!!!!WOW. The stuff that stays in your stomach the longest is your fats.If you eat to much fast food you can get obsessed and that means that it is harder for your stomach to take in the food.




  This is an example of food we shouldn't eat.

This is an example of food we shouldn't eat.

I  know it looks good but it is hard for our stomachs to take that in.It is ok to eat it sometimes but not every day because you could become fat.





Now we are going to talk about the small intestine and it is the thing that finishes the presses of digestion and absorbs the neutrinos and passes the residue to the large intestine(WOW)!!!!!!!!!! That is alot for a intestine.




This is the small intestine

Now I'm going to talk about the large intestine the thing that receives residue like I said at the top if you were paying attention anyway large intestine um well its the thing that extends from the ileocecal junction GOSH what a word.............. It also takes the body's unwanted food and then well it comes out!!!!!

          

I hope you enjoyed my blog and hope you had a good Christmas and New year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





Our Awesome over night feild trip!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm going to tell you about my schools over night field trip to Florida for the space shuttle launch but it didn't blast off boooooooooooooo!!But it was still a good trip because on the way up we got to listen to our ipod and hang out with friends.Me and my friend chase could not go to sleep on the first night till like twenty minuets before we got there then one of our friends woke us up.When we got our rooms we got our room mates mine were Kenneth,Chase and Zak.Our teacher in our room was Mr.Sellers and he was fun cause he lets us watch movies on his projector.When we got un packed we had some down time to rest then we rode our coach bus to the Kennedy Space center and it was cool because we could see the rockets that were used before they started using the NASA Space Shuttle.Let me show you guys a pic of the rockets they used to use and the new space shuttle.

The last one is NASA'S new shuttle.All of those are in order in when they were used the small ones the people did not go in it was to test to see if they would go in space.The larger ones had tiny capsules and 1 to three astronauts can fit in there.The rockets fell to the ground and the capsule would orbit around the earth the shuttles stay with you and both of the rockets on the side of the shuttle would fall off then when you got into space the fuel tank will fall off the rockets that fall of before you get into space land in the ocean and are meant to be used again but the fuel tank id the only thing that is not used again.

 A caosule orbiting around the earth.

That is what we were going to see but it was cannceled so we went to the beach and had fun and made some memories.Then after we played at the beach we went back to the Keenedy Space center and went on the shuttle simulater again and it was so much fun.The night before that we ate pizza at pizza hut wich was fun.Then the next night we had dinner at the motel.The next morning we got up at 6:30 and took our showers and we drove home on the way we stoped at micdonalds for breakfast and wendys for lunch it was good.We had a good ride back hanging out with our friends and when we got back to the school all of the parents were there and happy to see us and then we went home so it was a good trip I hope to do it again thanks teachers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hope you guys enjoyed!!
