The function of the heart is extremely fascinating, but what is also fascinating is how many different shapes it has taken throughout evolution to get us to our human heart of 4 chambers. For my project, I did a clay model of the 4, very, basic steps that the heart …
My steam project is about the objective “Describe the structure and function of the heart”
Each layer adds a system to the heart. A base layer (black and white) the circulatory system (blue and red) the muscular system (purple) and finally the electrical system (green).

Gonorrhea song (turkey in the straw)
There’s a lot of little critters that are living in your gut
They’re a-livin in your armpits and they’re livin in your butt
They are mostly really good for you but some are pretty bad
And the bad ones really hurt and make you really really sad.
It’s those bad little buggers that you really need to watch
And the one I’ll focus in on likes to live up in your crotch
It makes it hurt to pee and it makes you feel raw
It’s an STD named gonorrhea
Gonorrhea, ha ha ha
Gonorrhee-ay, hey hey hey
Roll it up, pat it down, any way at all,
Play a little tune about gonorrhea.
So let’s take a little look at its morphology
It’s a tiny bacteria that’s really hard to see
It’s gram negative, fastidious,
And by golly it’s a diplococcus
On its surface gonorrhea have little pili
And sugars called lipooligosaccharides
It can use the little pili to move itself straight
And can pull 100,000 times its own weight
Gonorrhea, ha ha ha
Gonorrhee-ay, hey hey hey
Roll it up, pat it down, any way at all,
Play a little tune about gonorrhea.
It infects the submucosa of the epithelium
Where it’s quickly eaten up by our immune system
Eating pathogens is where neutrophils are at home
And they kill it using radicals from phagosomes
Now the problem is gonorrhea can be tough
And it fights right back with its own nasty stuff
So if you get gonorrhea you should see a doc
Or it just might end up cleaning your clock
Gonorrhea, ha ha ha
Gonorrhee-ay, hey hey hey
Roll it up, pat it down, any way at all,
Play a little tune about gonorrhea.
2 CommentsI decided to explore and analyze the path of blood through the heart by making a booklet illustrating the structure and functions of the heart as a muscular organ. The heart starts pumping approximately 22 days after conception and involves a complex biological signal, interactions, specification of myocardial progenitor cells, …
I did my project along the lines of acid reflux. Gastroesophageal reflux disease or GERD for short occurs when our esophageal sphincter that prevents back flow becomes very week and people experience heart burn two times a week or more. Something that can commonly happen at the same time is …
What I was going for here was a person opening up a door to their intestines, where you can see that they have a (scotch) tapeworm in their duodenum. Tapeworms are segmented, which is represented by the visible turns in the worm following along the intestine. Tapeworms are a parasite …
I made a model of the lungs in order to demonstrate one of the ways in which one could develop a pneumothorax. A pneumothorax is a condition that develops when air gets inside of the pleural space. This can occur from air escaping the lungs or air entering the the …
My project is depicting Pulmonary Edema, below is a picture of lungs made from recycled plastic, the green bottle marks the Trachea and breaks into two Primary Bronchi entering into the lungs which are the milk jugs on the left and right. Each lung only has one pulmonary bronchiole to …
This project aims to give basic information about Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). This includes the causes, symptoms, treatment, how it forms in the body, and some circumstances if this won’t be treated right away. The researcher’s main goal is to have a deeper understanding about Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, that might …
