Frog Dissection... yak! = )

Nov. 25, we had a frog dissection. Oh! It was a terrible parting. :) Yakiiee.

First we cut the center of its body and saw the muscles.

After it many groups successfully saw its inner part. This part was AH! disgusting.

After the inner parts was been taken away.
Different Reactions.


Look she was scared in dissecting the frog.
While this one, he was enjoying and yet he don't wear gloves. ^_^

INFO 'bout frogs:

Frogs are amphibians in the order Anura (meaning "tail-less", from Greek an-, without + oura, tail), formerly referred to as Salientia (Latin salere (salio), "to jump"). Most frogs are characterized by a short body, webbed digits (fingers or toes), protruding eyes and the absence of a tail. Frogs are widely known as exceptional jumpers, and many of the anatomical characteristics of frogs, particularly their long, powerful legs, are adaptations to improve jumping performance. Due to their permeable skin, frogs are often semi-aquatic or inhabit humid areas, but move easily on land. They typically lay their eggs in puddles, ponds or lakes, and their larvae, called tadpoles, have gills and develop in water. Adult frogs follow a carnivorous diet, mostly of arthropods, annelids and gastropods. Frogs are most noticeable by their call, which can be widely heard during the night or day, mainly in their mating season.

The distribution of frogs ranges from tropic to subarctic regions, but most species are found in tropical rainforests. Consisting of more than 5,000 species described, they are among the most diverse groups of vertebrates. However, populations of certain frog species are declining significantly.

A popular distinction is often made between frogs and toads on the basis of their appearance, but this has no taxonomic basis. (Members of the anuran family Bufonidae are called true toads, but many species from other families are also called toads.) In addition to their ecological importance, frogs have many cultural roles, such as in literature, symbolism and religion, and they are also valued as food and as pets.

Science Report "Cardivascular and Lymphatic System"

Problems and Diseases

The human body has two circulatory systems! These are the cardiovascular system and the lymphatic system. The differences between these two systems are compared in the table below. To simplify the explanation, in this chart they are referred to simply as blood and lymph. To learn more about the lymphatic system, see Understanding the Lymphatic System.

Being aware of the differences between these two systems makes it easier to understand the special difficulties encountered by the lymphatic system when any part of that system is not functioning properly.

Comparison of the Cardiovascular and Lymphatic Systems
Cardiovascular System (Blood)	Lymphatic System (Lymph)
Blood is responsible for collecting and distributing oxygen, nutrients and hormones to the tissues of entire body.	Lymph is responsible for collecting and removing waste products left behind in the tissues.
Blood flows in a closed continuous loop throughout the body via the arteries, capillaries, and veins.	Lymph flows in an open circuit from the tissues into lymphatic vessels. Once within these vessels, lymph flows in only one direction.
Blood is pumped. The heart pumps blood into the arteries that carry it to all of the body. Veins return blood from all parts of the body to the heart.	Lymph is not pumped. It passively flows from the tissues into the lymph capillaries. Flow within the lymphatic vessels is aided by other body movements such as deep breathing and the action of nearby muscles and blood vessels.
Blood consists of the liquid plasma that transports the red and white blood cells and platelets.	Lymph that has been filtered and is ready to return to the cardiovascular system is a clear or milky white fluid.
Blood is visible and damage to blood vessels causes obvious signs such as bleeding or bruising.	Lymph is invisible and damage to the lymphatic system is difficult to detect until swelling occurs.
Blood is filtered by the kidneys. All blood flows through the kidneys where waste products and excess fluids are removed. Necessary fluids are returned to the cardiovascular circulation.	Lymph is filtered by lymph nodes located throughout the body. These nodes remove some fluid and debris. They also kill pathogens and some cancer cells.
Blood vessel damage or insufficiency produces swelling that containing low-protein fluid.	Lymphatic vessel damage or insufficiency produces swelling containing protein-rich fl

"Ang Magulang ay Magulang"

Minsan may nagtanong saakin, "sino ka?". Sinabi ko ang pangalan ko at bigla niyang itinanong "kanino kang anak?" hindi na ako nagtaka sa mga tanong na iyon. Bigla ko na lamang naiisip na bakit dala ko pa rin ang mga magulang ko? eh, hindi naman ako sila? bakit ba?

Lumaki akong nag- iisang babae sa aming magkakapatid. Bago pa man dumating ang aking bunsong kapatid nakukuha ko lahat ng gusto ko. Noong mga panahon na iyon mas naramdaman ko ang pagmamahal ng aking mga magulang. Pero nagbago ang lahat ng isinilang ang bunso kong kapatid, mas natuto akong mapagisa o independent. Dito ko naisip na hindi lang pala ako ang anak at kailangan din sila ng iba ko pang kapatid.

Kahit anong manyari pagbalibaliktarin man ang mundo, "ang magulang ay magulang" kahit iwanan nila ang kanilang mga anak sila pa rin ang gumawa at ina pa rin ang nagluwal dito. Wala namang magulang ang nagbalak ng masama para sa kanilang anak, pero ngaun 60% ay handa sa pagiging magulang nila at 40% ay hindi at tila nabigla sa kanilang nagawa.

Hindi ko masasabing perpekto ang aking mga magulang pero wala na akong mahihiling pa at masaya ako kapag kasama ko sila. At kung sakali man ako'y magkaroon ng pamilya sila ang aking magiging huwaran.

- Assignment ko! :))

Filipino Report ...

Kayarian ng Pangungusap:

Ang pangungusap ay may apat na kayarian: payak, tambalan, hugnay at langkapan.

Ang payak na pangungusap ay nagpapahayag ng iisang kaisipan. Maaaring nagtataglay ng payak o tambalang simuno at panaguri. May apat itong kayarian: payak na simuno at payak na panaguri; payak na simuno at tambalang panaguri; tambalang simuno at payak na panaguri; at tambalang simuno at tambalang panaguri.

Mga halimbawa:

• Ang pamahalaan ay masigasig sa mabilisang pagsugpo ng kriminalidad sa bansa.
• Ang mga lalaki at babae ay naghahanda ng palatuntunan para sa darating na pista.
• Ang aming pangkat ay naglinis ng mga kalye at nagpinta ng mga pader sa paaralan.
• Ang mga guro at mag-aaral ay aawit at sasayaw para sa pagdiriwang ng Buwan ng Wika.

Ang tambalang pangungusap ay binubuo ng dalawa o higit pang sugnay na makapag-iisa:

Halimbawa:

• Nagtatag ng isang samahan sina Arnel at agad silang umisip ng magandang proyekto para sa mga kabataan ng kanilang pook.
• Maraming balak silang gawin sa Linggo: magpapamigay sila ng pagkain sa mga batang lansangan, magpapadala sila nga mga damit sa mga batang ulila saka maghahandog sila ng palatuntunan para sa mga maysakit sa gabi.

Ang hugnayang pangungusap ay binubuo ng isang sugnay na makapag-iisa at isa o dalawang sugnay na di-makapag-iisa.

Halimbawa:

• Gaganda ang iyong buhay kung susunod ka sa mga pangaral ng inyong magulang.
• Ang batang putol ang mga kamay ay mahusay gumuhit.

Ang langkapang pangungusap ay binubuo ng dalawa o mahigit pang sugnay na makapag-iisa at dalawa o mahigit pang sugnay na di-makapag-iisa.

Halimbawa:

• Ang buhay sa mundo ay pansamantala lamang kaya't dapat na tayo ay magpakabuti upang makamit ang kaligayahan sa kabilang buhay.
• Nahuli na ang mga masasamang-loob kaya't payapa na kaming nakatutulog sa gabi, kasi sila lamang ang gumugulo sa amin.

Ang mga bayani natin ay namuhunan ng dugo upang makamtan ang kalayaan nang ang bayan ay matahimik at lumigaya.
