Physiology
Physiology is a study of the body and its organs. This class taught me a lot about how to take care of myself and the steps to be healthy. My group had to build a 3D model of a character with four legs and with that model we labelled its body cavities, its spacial distance and lateral lines. At first we had to choose an animal to model for our project and we chose scrappy doo. Then we had to build a 3D model of him using cotton, pipe cleaner, and felt. After building the model we glued on his labels to signify their places in a corpse position. This project is a meaningful to me because I am now specially aware of my body and what I learned are the proper terms to say above and below using scientific vocabulary.
My second project is my food diary which was the most tedious of them all. We had to keep track of what we ate for 5 days straight, only they didn't count if you were sick. And by using that information we calculated to see weather we were healthy or not. This project was of such a great importance because of the necessity to realize that our country is the fattest of them all. It was very meaningful to me because as a teenager its all about image and you have to be healthy to look your best.Ii know know that i have to eat so much more protein and possibly that's the reason i cant build muscle.
