While working with an actual human brain would be fun, we can only work with a sheep brain.
A&P was identifying different parts of the sheep brain, which is very similar to the human brain.
It is harder to identify parts of the brain when it is not color coded like in diagrams.

Gummy Bear Osmosis is always a favorite - while solution percentage shrinks the gummy bear, which on will make it more fat?


When colors change (and you don't expect them too) it is one of the most fun chemistry labs. Blue Bottle, which is an oxidation reduction lab, it is always fun to see how many times you can get the cycle of blue to clear.

What is the one thing you are given when you are born and you will have until the day that you die?
Your Body!
You need to understand your body since you always have it and rely on it all the time. Sadly, most people know their cars better than their own bodies.
Today, Mr. Hancock and Mrs. Bushman teamed up to talk about what happens to your body as you run the mile and how your breathing works with your cells and how you can eat in a way that that helps your body to be efficient.
According to the California Department of Public Health, "up to 80 percent of cardiovascular disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes and over 30 percent of cancers could be prevented by eliminating tobacco use, unhealthy diet, physical inactivity, and the harmful use of alcohol" (Anatara Medicine, n.d.).

Muscles conduct electricity. The heart muscle creates its own electricity. Muscle can only conduct electricity if it has electrolytes. Electrolytes include Calcium, Sodium, Magnesium, Potassium, Chloride, Phosphate, and bicarbonate. Sports drinks have electrolytes in them to replace used electrolytes when exercising. Today, A&P tested a few different drinks to see their ability to conduct electricity. We used 2 methods,, 1- completing a circuit with a lightbulb and 2 - using a volt meter. Coca-Cola did NOT conduct electricity, Ethyl alcohol did NOT conduct electricity, Protein drink DID conduct electricity, salt water DID conduct electricity. So make sure that you drink a sports drink alternating it with water when you exercise.

Photography Students have been learning about Aperture Priority (AV mode), using low F-stops to create a short depth of field; this means that the foreground and/or middle ground stays in focus but the background becomes blurred out. This is an ideal technique often used for portraits, but students decided to use sports equipment to practice this type of depth and focus on. Great work Wildcats!!
