Digestive system organs

I watched one video no quiz came up at the end I also clicked another link and a random survey came up.

Digestive System Inquiry

What happens to food after we swallow it?

Did you know that there is a long process on where  food goes after we eat it. Some of us may think after we swallow a bite the food goes down the esophagus which is made up of two layers of smooth muscle and straight into our stomach which is correct but theres more to it then just that. When the food enters the stomach, the stomach produces acid which helps kill bacteria and germs in that way bacteria and any sort of germs wont get into the food. Then the stomach makes an enzyme which releases a molecule which helps in vitamin B12. Then the stomach grinds so the food can break into small particles, after the small particles are made they pushed down to the small intestine. For the small intestine the food is processed by different chemicals designed for  specific components of the meal. Sugars, fat and protein are digested by enzymes which are released by the pancreas. In the pancreas theres a tube which joins the small intestine so all the enzymes can travel into the small intestine when the food is there. There is also another tube which connects the liver/gallbladder to the small intestine. This tube allowed bile which helps mix food in the small intestine. Once all the proteins fats and carbohydrates are digested and nutrients are absorbed by the intestine then everything gets passed down to the blood stream which then travels to the liver. The livers duty is to process nutrients, vitamins as well as drugs.

1. I choose this topic because I liked the video I found.

2. It reaped because we have talked about this many times in class as well as watched a movie on it.

3. I have no questions.

I showed you the questions on the same day as we got the assignments.

Digestive system unit assessment

Heart Blood Flow

Left atrium
function: pumps blood to the left ventricle
Blood type: both blood types

Left ventricle
function:pumps blood to all the tissues all over the body
Blood type: oxyganated

Right ventricle
function: pumps blood to the pulmonary artery and then to the lungs
Blood type: deoxygenated

Right atrium
function: it pumps blood into the right ventricle and then sends it to the lungs after
Blood type: deoxygenated

Pulmonary artery
function: transfers deoxygenated blood from right ventricle to the lungs
Blood type: deoxygenated

Aorta
function: is a type of chamber that pumps blood to the aortic valve
Blood type : oxygenated

Pulmonary veins
function: has the job to carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium
Blood type: deoxygenated

Superior vena cava
function: carries and brings oxygenated blood to the lower part of the body
Blood type: deoxygenated

Inferior vena cava
function: brings deoxygenated blood to the right atrium
Blood type:

Atrioventricular valves
function: lets blood flow from the atria to the ventricles
Blood type: both

Semi lunar valves
function: has the control of moving back into the ventricle

Skeleton

The picture won't post so ill come show it to you!

Exercise science

My fitness goal is too improve on my healthy eating. Besides that I think I've improved a lot. One thing that I'm really proud of is my beep test before from last years I can definitely see an improvement. Last year my beep test score was 7.4 and my most recent one is 8.2.

Joints assignment

Hand joints normally get dislocated due to playing sports but one interesting way my cousin dislocated his hand was due to a firecracker. The fire cracker blew up in his hand which caused to dislocate it and it was also not very pleasant looking slowly but surely he recovered.

Lungs assignment

I don't have the picture of the lungs assignment but you saw my finished lungs.

Heart dissection

1.  The most surprising thing about the heart dissection would be the colour changing, but since I already have done a heart dissection before it wasn't as surprising. From last time I didnt remember what the chordae tendiane was until I saw it in the heart I felt how stretchy it was.

2. Atria and the ventricles are different because the ventricles are bigger compared to the atria plus the function of the atria is to collect blood and pass it to the ventricle.

3. The left ventricle is more muscular than the right because the right ventricle only has the job to carry deoxygenated blood to the lungs and back.

4. The function of the heart valves are that  it keeps the blood following and it sends blood to the proper place.

5. Pictures aren't uploading.

Yoga

I always thought yoga was for super flexible people but I was wrong. I really enjoyed doing yoga it was fun/ relaxing.

Fitness friday

Beep test - 8.2

T-test - 16 seconds 

Sit and reach - 3 

VO2 max

My VO2 max is about average at about 33 for a teenager. Next Time my goal is to do better on the beep test so I can get a better VO2 Max. 

Asthma 
Asthma is a long term swelling of the lung airway that causes coughing, wheezing, chest tightness and shortness of breath.The asthma gets worse if it is around its trigger symptoms which are air pollution, tobacco smoke, factory fumes, infections, pollens, foods, cold air, exercise, chemicals and medication.In 2010, more than 18 million adults and 7 million children suffered from asthma.

Hi Mom and Dad!
This is my interim report for the Human Kinetics Coop.

So far, the highlights for me have been:


I am the most proud of:
Actually exercising this year and improving on my eating.

The most interesting things I have learned about are:
Our body parts, and I now know them better.

An example of when I really pushed myself in SuperFit is:
When my bone came out but I still ran in pain.

I could make improvements in:
Eating more healthier.

I am really looking forward to:
Up coming field trips.

The Basics - WORK HABITS:

Attendance (classes missed and why) -
I've never missed a class so far.
Participation in field trips (woo kim, grouse grind, rock climbing) -
I've participated in every field trip.
Lates (how many & reasons) -
I've never been late to class.
Preparedness for class (gym strip &/or supplies) -
I always bring my gym strip and supplies for Bio.
Class time management (are you using your class time to complete your work?  engaged in class discussion? participating? following along? doing your best? or talking too much? ) -
Yes I am using my time wisely in class and engaging in class discussions, all though i'm doing a terrible job at posting blogs only thing I need improvements on.

Blog assignment completion - (out of 8 assignments) Comments?
I still need to do the other 7..

Grouse Grind Post

a)  Describe the physiological response of your body to the exercise (heart rate? breathing rate? capillary dilation? body temperature? muscular fatigue? what hurt?  what was your limiting factor - why couldn't you go faster?)

     The Grouse Grind was definitely a challenge. My body temperature went warm as I  running up, it was definitely tiring and my legs mostly my thigh area were hurting the most. Unfortunately I didn't make it all the way up I only went half way. When I was running up my heart rate was increasing by a lot. Also walking down was pretty dangerous because I kept tripping on the rocks and I almost fell pretty badly.  

b)  You have cut and paste notes about the 3 energy systems - what energy systems were you using during the grouse grind and how do you know?  (hint: more than one!)

I was using Aerboic and Anerboic, I was using Aerboic because  when I was running up the mountain I used all my energy going up and I was also using Anerboic because when I reached have way I completely ran out of energy. I also started feeling sick.
