Question : Which of the following questions can be answered by studying these fossil layers? Wrong Answer: What are the common ancestors of fish? Correct Answer: Which organisms lived before/after/or at the same time? Why the correct answer is correct: The reasoning as to why "Which organisms lived before/after/or at the same time?' is the correct answer is because you can use relative dating to see which organisms are younger or older compared to one another.

Potential and Kinetic Energy - 2/4/18

Image
Summary: There are two forms of energy, kinetic and potential. Kinetic energy is a scalar quantity and is the energy of motion. An object that has motion - whether it is vertical or horizontal motion - has kinetic energy. Potential energy is the energy stored and waiting to be used. Potential energy is split into 3 forms, gravitational, elastic, chemical. Gravitational potential energy is the energy stored in an object as the result of its vertical position or height. Elastic potential energy is the energy stored in elastic materials as the result of their stretching or compressing. Chemical energy is potential energy stored within the chemical bonds of an object. If you have mass and speed, you have to the ability to do work. Work is measured in the unit of joules, using the formula Force x Distance = work.  SP6 - Constructing Explanations and Designing Solution:  This week, I have been studying the energy, specifically potential and kinetic energy. To learn a...

Muscular system

Image
The function of the muscular system is to allow you to move.It also lets your bones move. The organs are the three muscle types, the Visceral muscle, the cardiac, and skeletal muscle. The smooth muscle (visceral) is found inside of organs like the stomach, intestines, and blood vessels. The cardiac muscle is found only in the heart, and it is responsible for pumping blood throughout the body. And last the skeletal muscle, it is the only muscle that is controlled consciously. Every physical action that a person performs (e.g. speaking, walking, or writing) requires skeletal muscle. Most skeletal muscles are attached to two bones across a joint, so the muscle serves to move parts of those bones closer to each other. Interactions : The muscular system works with the nervous system, that makes sense since you usually have to think before you can move. the neurons of the nervous system are connected to most of the cells in your muscular system. So when you think to move s...
