This week I learned...

  This week class 7-32 learned all about the respiratory system and how it works. We also learned that there are parts of your body that you don't control such as breathing and the heart beating. These actions are called in-voluntary. We also learned about how red veins are actually called arteries and those arteries carry blood cells that are rich in oxygen and the blue veins are low on oxygen but are high in co2 (Corbin onyx-cued). The arteries are important because if they get cut or damaged in any type of way they will bleed forever any they won't heal.

  This week class 7-32 also learned that a group of cells make one tissue, a group of tissues make a organ and finally group of organs make a organ system. Mr.Rosado also spoke to the class about how a child is born and what is the early process of the egg in the women. Women have 2 ovaries, only one ovary gets to make the egg. Phatopian tubes carry the egg and while it's in the phatopian tube the egg gets to be fertilize. When the male produces sperm while having sex the sperm will swim its way through the woman's vagina and make its way towards the egg. When one sperm sell meets the egg it loses its tail. If the egg doesn't get sperm to it within a mouth the egg will fall into a egg holding chamber and it will be removed after a certain time period. When it is ready to be removed the female will get what is called their period.
