Three cells that I can tell you what they are, what they do, and why they are important to the body are: Mitochondria, Cell membrane, and Cell wall. The cell membranes protects the cell. It covers the cell, keeps good things in and bad things out. It also acts as the brain of the cell. This is important, because it protects the cell from getting dirty.
  Mitochondria breaks down food. When it breaks down food it releases energy for the body to use. This is important, because you need energy to do many things. As You can see the Mitochondria is a very powerful cell. The cell wall provides support to the cell. It helps it stay strong and up. It also does what the cell membrane does. Those are the cells, what they do, and why they are important.

When I heard that title was what we had to blog about I started to freak out!! I thought we didn't know how to find the volume of an irregular shaped object, but then my friend explained that the irregular object is a little something called water. So now that I know what that means I can tell you how to find the volume.
    OK first you have a tube or a beaker filled to a point with water, right.  You write down where the water is right then. Next you have to drop an object in like a little bouncy ball. You write down how much the water rose after ou put the object in. Now you have where the water was before you put the object in and where the water was after. Subtract those two numbers. Now you have the volume of an irregular shaped object.

  My favorite activity in first quarter was using the metric system for measuring. When we used the metric system, we had to use the centimeters side on our rulers. I thought that was really cool, because we learned how to use the system other countries use to measure things. Our science teacher would put out index cards, pencils, pens, boxes, and posters for us to measure using the metric system. 
     We had to write down on a sheet of paper how long each object was in centimeters. Sometimes we had to write down how much it was in millimeters, and meters. We did this by using math. I know I know, who uses math in science. Well it turns out that sometimes you have do math to get an answer in measuring or other things that involve numbers, I guess.
       That was my favorite activity in first quarter. I hope I explained it well enough to you. Does it sound fun to you? To me it was very cool and fun. I don't know if you know how to use the metric system or not, but I suggest you learn it if you want to travel, or become a scientist.

What's with that crazy question, do you get it? If not then here is the answer, Yes we can tell. We can tell, because if your cells weren't working you probably wouldn't be able to do anything. You wouldn't be to move, eat or anything else. So, eventually if you couldn't do any of the necessary things something bad will happen to you. You could get really sick or even die if your cells weren't working within you. I'm pretty sure everyone knows their cells are working if they can move and all kinds of other things. Just because we don't feel the cells working we can tell if they are or aren't.

Traits I got from my mom is her hair. A lot of people say that I look like my mom, but I don't see it. So, I guess that I got my whole entire face from my mom. I have her eyes and I have her chin. I have her ears definitely. I got my cheeks from her. On her side of the family they all have high cheek bones, and so do I. Well, that's all I have from my mom.
Some traits I have from my dad is his shortness. Iam not the average hieght for what grade I'm in . I have his skin color. I can't think of anything else I have from my dad. so I guess that's it. So as you can see I have mostly traits of my mom. I like that, because I think my mom is pretty, so it's only natural that I want to look like my mom. 

Today in science we were learning how to measure the volume of a liqiud. We didn't do much, but we learned new vocabulary words. Even though we didn't do much it all seemed intersting, but hard. We have to measure the liquid by using the metric system. This isn't the first thing we've measured using the metrics system. We've also measured cards and boxes. 
       All of the measuring is letting me get used to using the metric system. At first I did not know how to use the metric system, then our teacher explained it to us. After that it got really easy. Now that we're measuring the volume of a liquid it got a little bit harder. I'm pretty sure the teacher will expalin it and makeit easier for us.
