1/7/11 Blog Maddie Bedder(#3)






Today as always we started with HW. Mr. Finley made us play a game! Not so fun though, we had to say our notes out loud and who ever has the most notes without repeating the same note. Some notes were:








  • Plant's need light to make food
  • Any light will work to make food for plants but Sun light makes the most
  • Water is absorbed by the roots
  • Oxygen is from plants
  • Plants need oxygen but not for photosynthesis
  • Stoma is a small opening at the bottom of the plant
  • Most of of photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts
  • Water is brought up by veins and stored in vacuoles
  • The energy from the sun is stored in the sugar
  • The water goes up through the roots into the steam and gets transferred into the veins
  • The water goes in-between the cells








Those are a few notes we went over.








Next we got a lecture, then we did a demo.








Notes on the lecture about Photosynthesis:








  • Cells around the stoma are called guard cells
  • store water in vacuole
  • Guard cells open and close to protect the stoma
  • Osmotic- when there's too much water the water closes the stoma. So then there's less Carbon dioxide.
  • Stoma is a fancy name for a whole
  • The stoma doesn't absorb the water the guard cells do
  • Water and Oxygen go through veins
  • When they go through the veins they pass many cells and the water and oxygen go into the cells and some goes through all the way to the top of the plant
  • The water wants to go into the cells































Demo:



  • The amount of mass is what something weights.
  • The mass of the test tube is 50.2 with out the sugar
  • The mass with the sugar is 52.7
  • The sugar weights 2.5
  • The water weights 301
  • The water with salt weights 303.3



He have homework today!

  2. Lloyd Here.

    I want to add that the plants also need carbon dioxide for photosynthesis.

  3. Tayla its Maddie-
    Correct me if I am wroung here please
    Mass is what the stuff that makes you weight.. If you add mire stuff to your body your body's Mass won't change the weight of the stuff will

  4. Mass~the amount of stuff your made of
    After Mr. Finley's example in class, then if you weigh 100 pounds and you eat a 1 pound sandwich, then you will weigh 101 pounds.

    (person) + (sandwich) = (person and sandwich)
    100 + 1 = 101

    Hence the saying, you are what you eat!

    Mass is the amount of stuff you are made of.
    Weight is different than mass, remember!So, if you were on the moon you would weigh less, but the mass or amount of stuff you are made of is the same.

    Conservation of mass: Amount of stuff is the same from the beginning to end of process.

    Thank you Erica for the example. I got confused with that. Thank you for clarifying. It helped.
