The objective I chose for this STEAM project is “Explain common disorders during pregnancy and their cause.” I wanted to learn more about cesarean sections and why people get these surgeries. We talked a bit about pregnancy but nothing about cesarean sections, also known as c-sections. As I researched c-sections …
The objective that I chose to explore is “compare and contrast the organelles and their functions”. We’ve learned a tiny bit about mitochondria in this class. Basically, these kidney-shaped microscopic organelles are the “energy transformers” of our cells. More specifically, they turn stored energy into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is the …
The objective of this project I am covering is to classify certain fractures; specifically the compound fracture. I will also talk about the healing process of the bone based on the specific types of metals being used to fix the bone. There are many common types of fractures: compressed, spiral, …
I am covering the objective of how the interactions of muscles with the skeletal systems relate. I am also going to explain the physical effects on the child. My medium is a leg muscle. The leg muscles will demonstrate as a location director of where the child feels most pain. …
My STEAM project is based on knowing the stages of bone development and repair and how it correlates to the effect ballet has on the development of dancers feet. The mediums I used in my abstract include graphite and charcoal. I used these things to create an outside and inside …
I am covering the objective of how bone development is hormonally regulated in primary osteoporosis. The medium I have used is a painting comparing a healthy bone and a bone with osteoporosis. I will also be comparing a human body that has osteoporosis and one that does not. Osteoporosis is …
My STEAM project covers the objective of describing the stages of mitosis and its correlation with Lung Cancer. There are five stages of mitosis: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis. In these phases, there are checkpoints that ensure the honor of the genome as well as the stability of chromosomes. …
I have created two abstract sketches depicting the skeletal muscle system positions during aerobic and anaerobic activities. Image one focuses in on the torso and leg skeletal muscles regions. Image two focuses on upper torse and the arm skeletal muscle regions. The art works relate to the class objective- “decribe …
My STEAM project explains the objective of how bone growth is hormonally regulated and how it relates to the occurrence of osteoporosis. Sex hormones and PTH regulate the activity of osteoblastic and osteoclastic cells (Almeida et al, 2016). Osteoblasts function to produce new bone tissue. Sex hormones and mechanical stress …
The objective I’m covering is how neurons carry electrical charge. I am using Pado trees to represent neurons. Pado trees stretch for miles. A certain area of the forest could be rained on, while others could have sunny weather. However, due to the interconnected roots under the ground, water is …
