Science - Making Indicators

In Science, we have been learning things about Acids And Bases, later on learning about Indicators and the pH Scale. Well, I've done an experiment with a group and that experiment was about making indicators I've got some photos of the experiment we did...

So first we did was Added some Sodium Hydroxide and Hydrochloric acid into those test tubes and then we added Cranberry Juice into the test tubes so it will turn into a different color.


And then on the 2nd photo here we added a Litmus Indicator as you can see inside the test tube there's a paper those are Litmus paper which turns red in acidic.

Then we waited for a few minutes to see the changes in the litmus indicator and once we took it out the colors were changed into red but we also had Universal Indicator, look ahead on the 4th test tube from left as you can see the color is so dark because Universal Indicator has different color changes from strong acid to strong bases.

 

And at last this photo is not really important because they added acid and tea which turns out to be this so yeah...

What Have a Learnt??
I have learned how about Indicators and the pH scale also about Acids, Bases, and Alkali.

How does this work show my learning??
It shows what I've been doing in science for those weeks and learning new things.

Migration - Social Studies

In Social Studies we've been writing our own stories about Migration to New Zealand. Here I wrote a story and I hope you'll understand also if I had any mistakes please comment on my blog.

MIGRATION

Back in days in the 80s, there were used to be a “Slavery” it was the evilest thing ever happened in those days especially they used people under 18 for slavery. Well, this is more like a Slave Trade Triangle where Africans were kidnapped by European and took them to America and making them work, also trading them because they only need people who can work properly they don’t need people that are weak.

Around Afternoon Oliver, Noah, Harry and group of people aboard at Africa locating at Nigeria locating on West Africa looking for people that they can kidnap for slavery and migrating them to America to make them work for them. Amare and Adisa Both of them were brothers Adisa were 10 years old and Amera was 14 their parents we're kidnaped by a Group of Gang called KIDDING NAPS Which included Noahs Gang and took them to America to make them work for them and their Children don’t even know if they’re alive or dead, but their neighbor knows that they’re dead but their parents said no matter what happens our two sons have to go to New Zealand they cannot stay here they will stay with their Grandad. Amare and Adisa lived with their neighborhoods they had a poor house, no food, no running water, whooping cough, cholera no money or job all of them lived like a slave because of the Gang they come and take money from them and kidnap them at the same time if you don’t have money to give. 

Adisa and Amera went to search for food for themselves as they were looking they saw the Gang coming and they hid behind the bush those people had guns, knives, etc. The Gang went to their village called Paternoster, West Coast where Amare and his brother lived, both of them spy at them and saw them taking their neighbor they wanted to help them but they couldn’t because they were helpless no one would try to fight back because they will get killed. As soon as they left both brothers came back and asked people “why didn’t you guys do anything, they said,” we’re helpless no one stands in front of them if someone did they’ll whip them off.

 Amera was trying to encourage their village but it wasn’t working at all. A few Weeks later, Adisa was hungry and there was nothing to eat he told his brother Amera to let's go and gather food as they left, the Gang came back to their village and saw Adisa and Amera walking through the jungle they kidnapped them they screamed for help but no one was able to hear them. They covered their mouth with their hands so they won’t be able to scream.

As we’ve been taken to the ship which contained a lot of people almost every single one of them was crying most of them were just sad sitting alone like they got mental problems. 

As the ship started moving Amera decided to jump off the ship when no one sees them, everyone was standing next to each other in a line and in groups Amera said, “this is our chance”, as both of them were about to jump, Oliver saw them jumping but couldn’t do anything and told Noah they said to take the boats and search for them, it was not far away till the shore. Once they got to shore they ran as fast they could, Adisa saw a fallen log where they can hide both of them went behind the log and crouch down. Oliver came to find them but they couldn’t find them, they went back to the ship and told Noah that we’ve lost them.

 Two brothers were running towards another side of the jungle and got to the beach and found a sailing boat both of them decided to escape this land and go somewhere else but before they leave they started to grab some coconuts and other food or fruits they can find around them. As soon as they packed they stuff they left the land and found a map of the world Adisa asked, what is that?, Amera said It is a map our neighbor taught me how to use the map they also told me that we have to get to New Zealand, Wellington. After a lot of weeks, they reached India they stayed hidden because no matter what happens something might go wrong both of them stayed alert, got more food for their selves from the jungle and more Suddenly, Adisa saw Noah and his Gang he was shocked and told his brother both of them to rush to the boat as fast as they could all of the sudden Noah saw us running they started chasing us like a dog we hid and they lost us. Noah Once again spread their people around the graveyard they searched for us but couldn't find us we sneaked out and sail away. Now they’ve reached Indonesia both of us stayed for a couple of weeks because there was a storm ongoing and both of them were starving. 

After a few weeks, they got their self a lot of food to help their hunger. As the storm was clear we started to move Adisa was sick but just a bit the same with Amera, they were still brave and had confidence they kept on moving an moving until they reach their destination and once for all they reached but the trouble was how will they find their Grandad they don’t have his photo but knows his name, Eban. 

Eban was a fisherman in New Zealand, Wellington. He was Famous because he always gets a rare fish, he lives on his own. As we reached we tried to find a Fish Market where he sells his fish we went to a lot of markets but we could find him, in one of those fish markets I asked a stranger that do you know Eban? he said yes I know him really well he sells some of his fish to me, I asked the stranger do you know where he lives? He said yes, we were going to ask that could you drop us to his house but the stranger said his name loudly Eban!, we turned around and saw him and when he saw us he said Amera and Adisa! We cried and him too. 

We went to his home and had a fresh bath, better food, better clothes and more, etc. We told him about what happened in those weeks and months. He took us to the hospital for a check-up, once we got home he told about our parents what truly happened. Since that time we've grown up better education, then later got jobs to earn money. Eban said there was a Gang Called KIDDING NAPS they died in the storm we said, that was the gang who kidnapped us and our parents also other people. Eban said, don’t have to be worry now because your gonna tell in the army about that slavery and kidnapping and they’ll protect them all.

 

Atom Science

Difference Between Nuclear Fusion & Nuclear Fission…

What is the difference between fission and fusion??

Both are nuclear reactions that produce energy. Fission is splitting of a heavy unstable into two lighter nuclei, fusion is the process where two lighter nuclei combine together releasing a vast amount of energy.

What is Nuclear Fission??

Nuclear Fission is a nuclear reaction or a radioactive decay process in which the nucleus of an atom splits into smaller. Well, it's pretty much splitting of a large atomic nucleus into smaller nuclei.

What does Nuclear Fission produce??
The Nuclear fission products are atomic fragments left after a large atomic nucleus. Large nucleus like that of Uranium fissions by splitting into two smaller nuclei (center of an atom).

What is the purpose of nuclear fission??
It produces energy for nuclear power and drives the explosive of nuclear weapons.

How does nuclear fission occur??

An unstable atom splits into two or more smaller pieces that are stable and then releases the energy process.

What Is Nuclear Fusion??
It's a Nuclear process, where the energy is produced by hitting or smashing together lights atom. Which is pretty much opposite reaction of fission.

What is Nuclear Fusion process??
It's the process in which two atomic nuclei are fused together into a larger single nucleus, releasing energy in the process.

What is the equation for nuclear fusion??
Important fusion reaction for practical energy generation is that between Deuterium and Tritium. Its produces Helium (He) and a Neutrons (n) then is written as

D + T → He + n.

What I’m Learning??
I’m learning about Atom Science means by small or smaller particles that can exist and about Nuclear Fission also Nuclear Fusion.

How does this work show my learning??
It shows by what have I done on this post about Fission and Fusion.

What I’m I wondering??

I’m wondering That “Which is the largest atom??”.

Another World - Diversity

In English, we've been learning about another world from Movies and books we watched and read ( red). This helped me with my learning's about knowing things that you've haven't known yet also from Human beings like learning mistakes that you've done.

The Willow Maid by Tanner could be connected to that human can take or own whatever you want for themselves.

Disney’s Tarzan helped me to understand a different culture and not “Hurting or Killing” animals.

Avatar The Great Divide could be connected to a real world like the process of developing character or human beings.

Barriers by Hinewirangi helped me to understand that people cannot pronounce your name but it takes a bit of time to practise.

Butterflies by Patricia Grace  helped me to understand that even if other people give or tell their opinions or reasons you should care about it or other way you could say respect their opinion even tho if you don’t agree.

Super girl, Welcome to Earth made me think about that she’s sad that their Daxam (planet) has been destroyed kind of and escaped from Krypton because of an explosion and now she’s at Earth.

Zootopia could be connected to the life of humans because they’re doing the work that humans do also achieving what you want.

Avatar The Water bending Master helped me to understand of real world material art and there cultures.

Slum Dog Millionaire Helped me to understand how hard is it to get a job and some people will do any job if they need money like doing job of a crime.

Medical Science - Too Confusion

We've been doing Medical Science for 5 or 6 weeks we had to publish something on our blog about Medical Science Research so I've decided to research about Horseshoe Crab Which looks something like this if you click⇒⇒ Here...⇐⇐

Why do Horseshoe have blue blood??

Horseshoe crab’s use hemocyanin (Transporting) too carries oxygen through their blood. It causes⇒ copper ⇐present in hemocyanin, their blood is blue.

Unlikely horseshoe crabs do not have hemoglobin (protein in red blood cells) in their blood.

Their blood contains Amebocytes which play a similar role to white blood cells of vertebrates in defending the organism against pathogens (Virus, Bacteria).

What is blue blood used for??

Horseshoe (crab) blue blood contains a chemical called Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL), which makes it thick or thicker when it comes in contract with toxins produced by bacteria that can cause life-threatening in humans.

Why do we harvest horseshoe crab blood??
Blue color from the copper used to carry oxygen around the crab's body.

Horseshoe blood reacts to the presence of bacterial endotoxins.

How much does Horseshoe crab blood cost??
On the world market, a quart (1.13 litres and in the US to approximately 0.94 litre) of horseshoe crab blood has a price tag of an estimated $15,000, overall revenues from LAL industry estimated at the U.S. $50 million per year.

How long can a Horseshoe crab go without eating??

Horseshoe crab can almost survive about 4 days out of the water, and how?? Well only if their gills are kept moist.

Horseshoe crab breeding

Horseshoe crab migrates to shallow coastal waters, a male selects a female to clings to her back. Male surround female and all fertilize together, the female digs the hole in the sand and lays her egg while males fertilize them. Female can lay between 60,000 and 120,000 eggs in batches of a few thousand at a times. It takes the egg about 2 weeks to hatch but shorebirds eat many of them before they hatch.

What am I learning?? I'm learning about Medical Science and facts about Horseshoe Carb.

How does this work show my learning?? It shows by the information I gave about Horseshoe Crab which contains Blue Blood.

What am I wondering?? I'm wondering why only horseshoe crab has blue blood and other crabs have red blood.

Harriet Tubman

In Social Studies We've been doing stuff about slavery, kidnapping, and thing like that our class was supposed to create a slide about Harriet Tubman, she was an American abolitionist and political activists. She was born into slavery. Unfortunately, I forgot to publish my slide it's been a lot of weeks so I'm sorry But Hey I'm going to publish on Wednesday, 10th April which is not good at all...

As you can see I have not added more slides or did more research on this topic because there were only a few questions.

 What am I learning??
I'm learning about slavery happens in a different country and what causes slavery.

How does this work show my learning??
Well, I have not tried to do this, to be honest, but then I had to you can go through slides and see what I have done.

What am I wondering??
I'm wondering how cruel is for children working and being in slavery. 

Science - Research

• Ethics of Cloning

The safety and efficacy of the procedure, cloning destructive embryonic stem cell research

What are the ethical issues of cloning??

Reproductive cloning includes genetics damage. While many of these views are religious in origin, some of the questions raised by cloning are faced by secular perspectives as well.
How does cloning work on animals?
In reproductive cloning, researchers remove the somatic cell, such as a skin cell, from an animal that they wish to copy.
How does cloning work on humans??
Human cloning is the creation of a genetically identical copy (or clone) of a human. Human cloning, which is the reproduction of human cells and tissue.

• Where did Humans originate?

The first modern humans began moving outside of Africa about 70,000 - 100,000 years ago.
The fossil evidence was insufficient for archaeologist Richard Leakey to resolve the debate about exactly where in Africa modern humans first appeared.

Most scientists currently recognize some 15 to 20 different species of early humans.
The Process of Evolution
A process of evolution involves a series of natural changes that cause species to arise, adapt to the environment and become extinct. Organisms have originated through the process of biological evolution. In this system, modern humans are classified as Homo sapiens.

• Darwinism - Survival of the Fittest

Is a phrase that originated from Darwinism evolutionary theory as a way of describing as natural selection. Biology concept of fitness is defined as reproductive success.

• What happens if you have extra sex chromosomes?

The addition of an extra X Chromosome occurs during the formation of reproductive cells (eggs or sperm) in one person’s parents.

• Should we use GMO food in our diet?

It’s human nature, it seems to resist change and fear the unknown. Genetic engineering of food and feed crops resulted in their resounding condemnation.

Why Food is Genetically modified??

Most Foods are modifications have primarily focused on cash crops in high demand by farmers such as soybean, corn, canola, and cotton.




What Am I Learning??
I'm learning about Genetics and Evolution also with some other research if you'll go through my Blog.

How does this show my learning??
It shows by publishing my work on the blog and sharing to other people.

What Am I wondering??
I'm wondering How do people have this Baldness also Sickle- Anemia.
