Bones of the Skull - Pumpkin carving

Include all of the following bones (with labels & boundaries) when you carve your pumpkin:

SKULL BONES -
occipital
parietal
frontal
temporal
sphenoid

FACIAL BONES -
Nasal
Zygomatic
Maxilla

Use your colouring sheet as a guide as well as the following pictures:

Skeleton costume project - Ex Sci

Using our colouring sheets & images from the internet as a guide (make sure the pics are anatomically correct & science based) we will be making skeletons out of paper to stick onto black clothes on Friday morning.  If you already have a costume on, you can affix your skeleton to your paper me (2nd choice!)

Using white paper (or bring white poster board), make each of the following bones in full size:

• clavicle
• sternum
• ribs
• scapula
• humerus
• radius
• ulna
• carpals
• metacarpals
• phalanges
• cervical vertebrae
• thoracic vertebrae
• lumbar vertebrae
• sacrum
• coccyx
• illium
• ischium
• femur
• patella
• tibia
• fibula
• talus
• metatarsals
• phalanges

Attach the bones.  Learn anatomy.  Wear them all day.  Be scary and awesome.  Take pictures and post to your blog.

Exercise Science - Physical Fitness

Today we will be learning about the components of physical fitness -

Use this guide (skip to page 6) to answer the questions on paper - relating your fitness goal from the other day to the components of physical fitness and applying the FITT principle of training to your goal.

Biology 12 - Oct 21

Your assignment in the library today is to be curious about the respiratory system.
Find out the most interesting things that you can about the respiratory system.  Stick with one theme (ie.  tree growing in lung, effects of cigarette smoke, lung punctured by wayward javelin, vital capacities of various olympic swimmers, dangers to respiratory system of scuba diving)

You will be presenting what you find to the class so be sure that you understand your material and be able to relate your topic back to what we are learning about in class.

Today you will be creating blog post where you have written about your interesting topic and included links to video clips, pictures (for us to see and for your presentation) & links to the articles that you have read.
YOU MUST POST SOMETHING BY THE END OF PERIOD 3 TODAY, even if you need to edit it afterwards...

I am looking forward to reading some interesting posts!  Have fun!

Post the following 3 things:

Your fitness goal

How you can measure it (specific fitness test)

A workout / app that will help you meet your goal. 

Crash Course Video

Here is the link to the Crash Course Video on Circulatory and Respiratory systems:

Your assignment is to watch the video, laugh at the funny parts, and think about how the two systems are connected - how do they work together?  What is one interesting thing that you learned?

Interim report - HKin Coop

Hi Mom and Dad!
This is my interim report for the Human Kinetics Coop.

So far, the highlights for me have been:


I am the most proud of:


The most interesting things I have learned about are:


An example of when I really pushed myself in SuperFit is:


I could make improvements in:


I am really looking forward to:


The Basics - WORK HABITS:

Attendance (classes missed and why) -

Participation in field trips (woo kim, grouse grind, rock climbing) -

Biology 12 - Blood Typing

We are learning about blood typing in class today.

Here are the rest of the notes on Rh factor - copy onto your sheet.

Grouse Grind Post

Great job on the grouse grind yesterday!

Your assignment is to write a post about your experience - include pictures, times, etc. if you have any...

a)  Describe the physiological response of your body to the exercise (heart rate? breathing rate? capillary dilation? body temperature? muscular fatigue? what hurt?  what was your limiting factor - why couldn't you go faster?)

b)  You have cut and paste notes about the 3 energy systems - what energy systems were you using during the grouse grind and how do you know?  (hint: more than one!)

If you did not participate in the field trip, please do this assignment based on your memory of a physical event that was very intense (beep test? 10 km race?  soccer playoff game?) - describe your participation and what the event was... and then proceed with the assignment above.

VO2 max

What is VO2 max and how is it measured?

During cardiovascular endurance exercise, your heart tries to keep up with the requirements of your muscles to provide oxygen and remove carbon dioxide so that you can continue to exercise.  As exercise intensity increases, your circulatory and respiratory system need to work harder and harder to meet the oxygen needs of your working muscles (using your AEROBIC energy system).  Your VO2 max is measured at the point that you can no longer sustain the activity.  VO2 max is a measure of overall cardiovascular fitness, specifically how well your body transports and uses O2.

What is your VO2 max?  Use the calculator in the following link to see an estimation based on your beep test score.

Heart Dissection

You will be exploring the heart, making observations, taking pictures and labelling them during this dissection.  And posting all of this to your blog! POST IT BY WEDNESDAY!

External anatomy

Take pictures of both the front and back of the heart - label the following on each picture if applicable:

• left and right atria
• left and right ventricles
• aorta
• superior and inferior vena cava
• pulmonary trunk / arteries
• pulmonary veins
• septum
• coronary arteries and veins

Observations:  Write your observations about the heart's external anatomy - size, shape, colour, weight. What are the differences between the shape/size of the atria and ventricles?  Describe the aorta and/or pulmonary trunk.  Did you find any veins?  Describe them.

Internal Anatomy

Use the scissors to make the incisions into the chambers of the heart.  Starting with the right side, you are going to cut down the pulmonary trunk, continue cutting through the ventricle to the bottom.  Try and stay in the middle of the chamber, it will open like a hot dog bun.  Then find the AV valve (and attached chordae tendinae) and cut up into the right atrium.  Take pictures along the way!

You will do the same on the left side, starting from the left atrium cutting down into the left ventricle.

Take pictures so that you can label the following:

• inside of left and right ventricles
• inside of left and right atria
• AV valves (L & R)
• chordae tendinae
• aortic and pulmonary semi-lunar valves
• septum
• aorta
• pulmonary trunk
• any attached veins (pulmonary, superior vena cava, inferior vena cava

Observations:

Write about the thickness of the walls of the ventricles - compare R and L

Valves & chordae tendinae - what do they look like?  feel like?  

Inside of the atria and ventricles - any observations on size, shape, colour

Inside of blood vessels - any observations on size, shape, colour

Questions:

1. What was the most surprising thing about dissecting the heart?  Describe what your expectations were and if they were met.
2. Why are the atria and ventricles so different (compare their structure to their function)?
3. Why is the left ventricle more muscular than the right?
4. What are function of the heart valves?  Describe how the structure of the valves relates to their function (including chordae tendinae).
5. Use one of your pictures to trace the path of blood through the heart (add arrows?)

Voyage of a Red Blood Cell Assignment

In groups of 2, you will be creating a video that outlines the journey of a Red Blood Cell (RBC) around the systemic and pulmonary circulation, travelling through the brain and the lungs.  Use all of the terms on the hand out as well as describe what happens at the capillaries (gas exchange), and how the blood returns to the heart (what is special about the structure of the veins?).

Use visuals (pictures, diagrams, paper me) to make your journey clear.  Both group members need to contribute!

Post your video to you tube and share on your blog. POST IT BY WEDNESDAY!
