Organs of pig

the organs of the pig layed out helped understand how the digestive system works and what the organs look like and where they are in your body. 

ribs

organs #2

gall bladder: sac like structure storage for bile

large intestines: digesta from the small intestine passes into the caecum main function is to absorp water 

small intestine: absorption of nitrient absorption

stomach: muscular organ responsible for storage, initiating te breakdown of nutrients snd passing the digesta into the small intestine 

organs #3

heart: pumps blood to rest of body 

esophagus: passes food from pharynx to stomache, lies behind trachea and heart and infront of spinal colum, passes through diaphram efore entering the stomach

liver: protected by abdomen

pig #2

pectoralis major: on your chest and connects the. front walls of the chest with bones od the upper arm and shoulder. 

rectus abdominus: is a thick mass of white fiborous connective tissue called the linea alba that unites the abdominal muscles 

Pig #1

observation: the pig was a small, the head was darker than the rest of the pig because it had discoloration. the features of the pig were noticable, you can see the hair on the pig and the finger nails. the pig. looks fake and plasticy but felt real.

I thought of how I use to be able to learn things when I did not understand them and I thought of these videos and it makes a lot more sense now that iv watched these and wrote the paragraph below after watching them to explain what I have learned!!



our heart sends blood two ways every time, the blue blood has little oxygen it comes from your heart and gets sent to your lungs where it recharges your body the red oxygen rich blood gets blood sent back to your heart and then to the rest of your body. our heart has 4 chambers and has valves to block each chambers to make it a separate one the nerves on the right side of your heart send signals and make your heart pump those are called your sinoatrial nerves. when your heart pumps it leaves the left ventricle and goes to up to your system then to your right atrium then to your right ventricle then up to your lungs then down to your left atrium and then finally down to your right ventricle again and repeats it self. a blood clot is when the blood gets blocked and that can cause a heart attack.

5 week fitness plan part 2

for my 5 week fitness plan I mostly did cardio, including the elliptical, treadmill, dog walks, and a few runs. I mostly do cardio because I think it gives you the minimum 30 minutes of exercise that you need every day, and after doing it you feel good! going into the 5 week fitness plan my goal was to become a better runner and more fit. I think the pre testing for this would have been the extended beep test or the regular beep test because it showed me where I was at with running and what my goal would want to be. I think the 5 week fitness helped me a lot and I can reach my goal with the regular beep test and the extended beep test as well. the running that we did this semester helped make me become somewhat of a better runner than before.

Circulatory System Post

Blood Flow through circulatory system:
The blood circulatory system delivers nutrients and oxygen to all the cells in the body. it consists of the heart and the blood vessels running through the entire body, the arteries carry away blood from the heart, then the veins carry blood back to the heart. an example I found that was easier to understand was that The blood vessels system is like a tree, the trunk of a tree because the main artery the aorta branches into large arteries, which go into smaller and smaller vessels to the capillary. there are 2 types of blood circulatory systems the systemic circulation provides organs, tissues, and cells with blood so they get oxygen and other nutrients. then the pulmonary circulation is where the fresh oxygen we breathe enters the blood, at the same time carbon dioxide is released from the blood.

The circulation starts between two heartbeats when the blood flows from both atria into the ventricles. the following phase is called the ejection period which is when both ventricles pump blood into the main artery. The systemic circulation the left ventricle pumps blood into the main artery to larger and smaller arteries into the capillary's. then the blood releases oxygen nutrients and other important substances and takes on carbon dioxide and waste substances. the blood that is low in oxygen is collected into the veins and is traveled to the right atrium and then to the right ventricle.



Here is a diagram of what the circulation looks like.

Goldstone PE Buddy Project - Final Reflection

In our last week of our Goldstone PE buddy project, we need to reflect of our experience both as PE leaders and PE buddies.  Your buddies will miss you - Ms. Sader says that her class talks about their big buddies all the time & that her students bring things from home that they want to show you.  How great is that!  You all really have an impact on these kids!

Complete this as a blog post or on paper - either format is due today.

PE leaders - 
1.  What adjustments and improvements did you make in your lessons (structure, activities, organization, instructions) from the first lesson to the last one?

The second time around we talked louder, we went more prepared, we had all of our activites ready to go for the kids and they were excited and ready to play with us!






 2.  What was the biggest challenge for your group?  For you?

The older buddies did not want to always participate in every activity which distracted the kids.





3.  Describe your favourite moment as a leader and explain why.


at the end of the class when the students leave then thinking we made it through the class!!





4. What do you still need to work on?  What improvements would you make if you were continuing teaching for another month?


more challenging activites






PE Buddies -
1.  What are some of the things that you learned being a PE buddy?


looking after  a kid is not easy at all!







 2.  Did your comfort level change over the course of the month?  Why or why not?


yes it did because at the end you realize all you need to do is make the kid happy and not worry about your image.







3.  What was your favourite part of being a buddy?  Be specific.


the end of the class when youv made it through the class!

digestive system: organs

way down: mouth>esophogus> liver> stomache> pancreas> bladder> small intestine> appendix> rectum> anus 

the difference between chemical and physical digestion is that chemical happens in the salavary glands and physical happens when chewing 

protein, salvitary, amylase is chemically digested by the mouth 

pepsin, hydrochloric acid and mucus are three components of gastric juice 

digestive system

digestion of proteins: 

- single amino acids decomposed 

- goes gastro intestinal tract

- begins in stomache when pepsinogen converted to pepsin

- by action of hydrochloric acid

- contrived by trypsins nd chymotrypsin

- in small intestine 

proteins

enzymes are- made of protein> shape is important, catalysts all cellular processes 

hormones- peptide

the structure is in 4 parts 1) primary structure 2) secondary 3) tertiary 4) quanternary

identify 4 main processes involved in respiration

glycolysis- conversion of glucose to pyrovate 8 ap 

krebs cype- election tranport 

electron transport chain- naOH & AO extrude it the interbrace sree 

oxidative phosptoryation- produces ATP by pustine it from intermembrsne to thr matris

structure of the aveoli

the structure is like a balloon, helps function during inhalation b/c it opens up to allow air & malg contact with a large area to preform gas exchange. the special features of the blood vessels wrapped around. 

Respiration

 goes through the nose>then through the nasal pasage> then the pharynx> then larynx> trachea> bronchi> bronchioles- passage of air to each develop> in the aveoli the gas exchsnge occurs > the diaphram lays at the bottom of air way. 

interesting muscle post(interesting facts)

- main purpose is to produce force and motion

- 650 skeletal muscles in human body

- tendons connect our soft contracting muscle to our hard body

- skeletal muscles can be further aware into the teo types slow twitch and fast twitch 

- takes 17 muscles in face for us to smile

- Smooth muscle (or visceral) is involuntary, its not controlled by our conscious mind. It is found on the walls of many organs and structures such as the esophagus, stomach, intestines, bladder, and blood vessels. Smooth muscles contract to move substances such as food through the organ.

urinary system interesting post(interesting facts)

- human bladder can hold 400 ml of urine

- human body blood filtered 400 times through kidney everyday

- urine stays in bladder 5 hours before discharge

- nerve sends signals to brain when bladder needs to be emptied

-  The bladder swells into a round shape like a balloon when full and gets smaller when empty. 

- there should be a control limit that shouldn’t be exceeded in situations where we have had to control our full bladder due to unavailability of a restroom.

-The kidney can clean more than 1 million gallons of water in a lifetime, which is more than enough to fill a small lake.
-You may suffer from stress if the muscles supporting the bladder are weakened. You can help to strengthen these by doing pelvic floor exercises.
-Urine is a blood byproduct and is non-toxic. It contains 95% water, 2.5% urea and 2.5% of other mixtures of minerals, salts and enzymes.

- If one kidney fails to function and is removed, the other kidney can increase in size by 50% within two months to handle the entire task of filtration.

- Urine is often diluted and added to potted plants in the garden as it has adequate urea content which is a wonderful source of nitrogen to plants.
