Sustainability

LO-Identify endangered species in NZ, explain why they are endangered and create a way to increase the population of the species .

1.A species of animal or plant that is seriously at risk of extinction

2. Kea

   Weka 

   Blue duck 

   Kiwi 

   Black robin

3.For the kea - Don't shoot the kea or throw anything to them.
   For weka - Don't put traps for kea.
   Blue duck - If they are in the water dont throw a hook on them.
   Kiwi - Don't let the other animals kill them.
   Black robin-Don't shoot them with any weapons and don't throw anything on them

TASK 2

-Kiwi

-The kiwis are endangered species because the other animal eat the kiwis or kill the kiwis
-The kiwis are endangered species because of the traps.
-100,000 kiwis are living in New Zealand

Sustainability

Lo-Understand what we are learning about this unit.Identify issues associated with the sustainability of whales.

7th of September 2017

Sustainability means-The ability to be maintained at a certain rate or level.


1.There are 19 different types of whale 


Blue whale-Aggressive hunting in the 1900s by whalers seeking whaleoil drove them to the brink of extinction. Between 1900 and the mid-1960s, some 360,000 blue whales were slaughtered. They finally came under protection with the 1966 International Whaling Commission, but they've managed only a minor recovery since then.


Fin whale-Recent surveys indicate that there are now fewer than 15,000 fin whales in the Southern Hemisphere and around 40,000 in the Northern Hemisphere. Classified as Endangered (EN A1d) on the 2010 IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Rorquals have long been hunted for their meat, blubber, oil and baleen.


Sei whale-Like all whales, Sei Whales also suffer from commercial hunting and whaling. ... Sei Whales are protected under the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972 and the Endangered Species Act of 1973.


Humpback whale-By 18th century, the commercial value of Humpback whales increased and that made them a preferred target for hunters.


Bowhead whale-The bowhead whale's conservation status is listed as “least concern” overall, but some populations (such as near Greenland) are endangered. They have traditionally been hunted by commercial whalers until the last century for oil, meat, and baleen.

North atlantic right whale -The North-Atlantic right whale is one of the most endangered of all large whales, with a long history of human exploitation and no signs of recovery despite protection from whaling since the 1930s. Northern right whale mother & calf (Eubalaena glacialis) off the Atlantic coast of Florida.

A specialist in Eye Cancer




-Eye cancer

-This disease was discovered on December 12,2008

-Cancer Cancers affecting the retina usually occur in the choroid, a dense layer of blood vessels that supplies the retina. The choroid is sandwiched between the retina and the sclera (the outer white layer of the eye). Because the retina depends on the choroid for its support and half of its blood supply, damage to the choroid by a cancer is likely to affect vision.

-A cancerous tumor is malignant, meaning it can grow and spread to other parts of the body. Cancer that forms in the eyeball is called an intraocular (inside the eye) malignancy. Medical doctors who specialize in the diseases and function of the eye are called ophthalmologists or “eye MDs”.

-Other, rare cancers of the eye include: Conjunctival melanoma is a tumor of the conjunctiva, which is a membrane that lines the eyelid and eyeball. If it is not treated, it can spread to the lymph nodes, which are tiny, bean-shaped organs located throughout the body that fight disease.

-At high energy, protons can destroy cancer cells. Using radiation therapy to treat the tumor may result in some vision loss or other complications, so doctors may recommend other treatments first. However, treatment for eye cancer using radiation therapy is continually improving.

LO-Understand what the 5 senses and prepare for/carry out an experiment         8/24/17  & 8/25/17

Aim-To carry out what this experiment safely and fun with it plus by showing them what our senses could.


Equipments-Five Pennies,cups ,tables


Method-

1. Put a cup in front of your partner. It should be about 2 feet away from him or her.
2. Ask your partner to close one eye.
3. Hold one of the pennies in the air about 18 inches above the table. Move it around slowly.
4. Tell your partner that you'll drop the penny whenever he or she says, "Drop it!" The idea is for your partner — with one eye closed — to judge when the penny is over the cup so the penny will drop into the cup.
5. Give your partner five tries with one eye closed, then five tries with both eyes open. Which way worked best?

To be safe not to swallow the pennies

Lo-be able to identify,locate and describe the function of muscles

-Bicep
-Tricep
-Gluteus maximus
-Abdominals
-Quadriceps
-Deltoid                
-Trapezius
-Gastrocnemius


FACTS ABOUT MUSCLE

-Make up 40% of total body weight
-The smallest muscle,like the smallest bones,are found in the middle ear,some of these are tensor tympani(connected to the eardrum)and to the stapedius.
-Muscles cannot push,they can only pull.The reason the arm can push is muscles in the back of the arm pulling the elbow
-The strongest muscle in the body?Pound for pound,it's the muscle that chew with  - called the masseters
-Humans are born with all of the muscles fibres they will ever had.they don grow new fibres,they just grow new fibres,they just grow thicker
-If all of the muscles in the body could all pull in one direction,it would create a force of 25 force of tons
-Smiling takes 17 muscles ,called cardiac muscle .this muscle work by itself with no thought no heartbeats anywhere from 60 to 100 time a minute,every minute day in human life.

Biceps-The bicep Brachii is a bi-articular muscle,which means that it helps control the motion of the different joints


Triceps-The triceps is an extensor muscle of the elbow joint and an antagonist of the biceps and brachialis and brachialis muscles



Gluteus maximus-The gluteus maximus muscle is responsible for movement of the hip and thigh. 


Abdominal-They assist in the breathing process as accessory muscles of respiration. Moreover, these muscles serve as protection for the inner organs.


 Quadriceps-All four quadriceps are powerful extensors of the knee joint.


Deltoid-The deltoid has three distinct functions that correspond to the three bands of muscle fibers.


Trapezius-Its functions are to move the scapulae and support the arm.


Gastrocnemius-Function. Along with the soleus muscle, the gastrocnemius forms half of the calf muscle. Its function is plantar flexing the foot at the ankle joint and flexing the leg at the knee joint.
