Questions

1) Peptide bond is found between the ammino acids in the primary structure.

2) In the secondary structure polar peptide is formed between the amino acid, which causes the chain to twist.

3)  It is due to the interactions between R groups, convalent bonds, it bonds, repulsion. It depends on primary structure in the a.a sequence. My protein would look different than everyone else because of the different letters.

4) Two or more polypeptides stick together.

5) Yes the shape structure would change if I changed the primary structure because there would be different amino acids meaning different interactions and different types of bonds.\

Colon Cancer Post

After watching the Colon Cancer surgery videos and seeing the pictures I was surprised on how they inflate the patients stomachs by inserting Co2 into it so they can get a better view for surgery.  It was very interesting how they had the video camera inserted through a port so that could see what they were doing on a screen in front of them. What I really found interesting was how the put ink on the tumor to differentiate  it. It was gross when they used a stapler to separate the colon than cut it out. I learned that you don't have to have symptoms to know that you have colon cancer, you can have it growing in you for years and find out after a body scam. 

What is important to me?

In Hk the most interesting thing is learning more about my body and how it works. Learning what is going on when I run or stop to rest. Also the way we are learning is fun and i enjoy coming to class everyday so I am exited to learn new things. 

In bio I have been getting all my blogs done and by doing so i learn more and more everytime i post a blog. My evidence is my quizes as i got 11/11 on one . That shows that I was paying attention in class and also did my blogs which helped me a lot to memorize the terms and structures. My second piece of evidence is my blogs such as the heart disection, the heart structure, diaphram and disection blogs all show how I have gained knowledge on the heart and how the funtions work. There is also labs like the lung (baloon) inflation/ deflation lab which gave me a good understanding on what happens when we inhale and exhale. These are just few of the manh blogs i have completed and they all have helped me get a better idea on what we are learning in bio so far. I need to improve by being more focused at times which will help me get even higher marks on quizes and such. I think i deserve around a  86%, 87% in bio because I have shown that I have been learning but there are still some things that need to be improved.

Im exercise scince i have shown that i have been learning along the way through my blogs. Examples my vo2 max, my body poster both show my understanding of my own body. My fitness goal was slitly achieved but i want to improve a lot for my second semester. I think I deserve around a 86-88 %. 

In superfit I gave it my all in the things i was participating in like the beep test when i beat ms phillips and hill runs. My performance went down for a bit when school soccer was going on, i was faced with knee pain for a bit but after i picked it up again and on a recent hill run I gave it my all. I also went to almost all the field trips and enjoyed them a lot. I think i deserve around 86-90% in superfit. 

Lung Inflation and deflation Lab

deflated 

Inflated

The first one is exhalation as you can see the balloon is flat. The diaphragm is relaxed.

The second is inhalation as the balloon can be seen filling up as the diaphram contracts.

Fitness Testing results

Aerobic Fitness: Beep test

Anerobic Glycolysis: Step- Ups

Atp CP System: Weight Lifting 

Flexibility: Splits

Power: Plank

Agility: Box Test

Goal: I want to improve my flexibility so I can atleast touch my toes when I do toe touches. 

Exercise: 

1. Ballistic stretching
2. Dynamic stretching
3. Active stretching
4. Passive (relaxed) stretching
5. Static stretching
6. Isometric stretching
7. PNF stretching

I will perfom each of these streches before and after my workouts to improve my flexibility.

My Skeleton

Bones Missing: Cranium, Patella, Phalanges, Facial bones, Tarsal, Carpal bone, Metacarpal bone and pectoral girdle. 

Respiration Lab

Intro: The process of external gas takes place between air and the lungs. O2 goes into blood from air through the aveoli and CO2 goes into aveoli into air from blood, because of cellular respiration. 

Part A : The result of the aerating of limewater remained the same there were no changes. However, the test tube we breathed jn became cloudy. 

Part B : The beaker that was aerated turned blue/green and beaker with the other distilled water that was breathed into orange/yellow. Therefore, aerated was neutral and the breathed into one was strong acid.

Part C: Breaths taken in one minute were: 28,25 and 18. Breaths taken in 30seconds were: 10,14 and 18. The numbers in 30seconds are basically half the amount of one minute except are kind of higher, for example 18 breaths per 30 seconds. This means we should be taking in more breaths. 

Joints

Your ankle bone and the ends of your two lower leg bones make up the ankle joint. Your ligaments, which connect bones to one another, stabilize and support it. Your muscles and tendons move it. The most common ankle problems are sprains and fractures. A sprain is an injury to the ligaments, it is when the ligaments are stretched beyond their normal range of motion. It may take a few weeks to many months to heal completely. A fracture is a break in a bone. You can also injure other parts of the ankle such as tendons, which join muscles to bone, and cartilage, which cushions your joints. Ankle sprains and fractures are common sports injuries. I chose to write about the ankle because I am constantly spraining my ankle so i wanted more information on it.
