Smoking Tobacco: How the Four Most Abundant Elements Can React
For my project, I discuss about how oxygen, hydrogen, carbon, and nitrogen can react to the smoke of tobacco. Like most things humans consume, tobacco and its smoke has species of those four elements. These species negatively effect the human body, such as, the lungs, liver, and heart. The oxygen, …
Tissues Found in the Digestive Tract
For my project, I decided to draw a diagram of the upper region of the human body and draw the main organs involved in the digestive tract. My STEAM project is about the different types of tissues that are found in the digestive tract that help with our everyday digestion. …
