For this project I chose to advertise hormone replacement therapy for postmenopausal women. This projects connects the objective, how bone development is hormonally regulated, to the development of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. This project sparked a lot of passion for me because I found the concept so wild and felt …
For this project I chose to further my research about the skeletal system, specifically comparing the 4 types of bone shapes. There are 4 types of bone shapes. Long bone which has a long thin shape, short bone which has a squat cubed shape, flat bone which has a flattened …
For my project, I decided to make a children’s book. My topic and objective cover’s the integumentary system. I did an example from when I was a kid and almost got frostbite.
My project will focus on the objective, “compare and contrast the different organelles and their functions”. My primary focus will be on the mitochondria. Mitochondria are membrane-bound cell organelles that generate most of the energy needed to power biochemical reactions. They are the “powerhouse” of a cell. Mitochondria are …
Bone Repair, Healing and processes involved; Children vs. Adults. For my steam project, I decided to research the healing process of bone, in children versus adults. When I was growing up, my mom would always tell me, “you’re young, you will heal fast” whenever I got hurt. I never really …
Positive Feedback Loop System Used During Labor. Homeostasis is the steady state of the body systems that living organisms maintain. Maintaining homeostasis requires that the body continuously monitors its internal conditions. From body temperature to blood pressure to levels of certain nutrients, each physiological condition has a particular set point. …
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, …
