11 seps Biology class-  are task was to research the pros and cons of kidney transplant and kidney dialysis. We had to work individually or in groups of twos and threes. After finding our information we created powerpoints to show our ideas.

below is my groups ( Catherine, Damian and Aaron) Presentation

With a new school on the way, Woodchurch High is trying to do its bit to help the environment. The school has appointed eco reps to help manage and control the new green scheme.

In every classroom there is now a grey recycling bin with a label on the lid educating students on what things they can or cannot recycle. Every week (or fortnight) a person from a form has to take the recycling bin to the recycling area where it is taken away to be recycled.

The school also has class rooms where there are no switches at all. the lights and computers are turned off automatically at the end of the day and during holidays to save electricity.

More updates on “green” progress soon!

Some quick questions to get you thinking…

What are you doing to help the escalating problem of climate change?

Do you think anything we need to do anything at all?

Who or what do you blame for the cause of climate change?

 Mitosis is the process by which a cell separates the chromosomes in its cell nucleus, into two identical sets in two daughter nuclei. It is generally followed immediately by cytokinesis, which divides the nuclei, cytoplasm, organelles and cell membrane into two daughter cells containing roughly equal shares of these cellular components.

Thousands of homes were affected by power cuts as the storms tore through the eastern state on Monday afternoon.

The southern city of Suffolk was among the hardest hit. Cars were flipped over, roofs blown off houses and trees and power lines brought down.

Officials have declared a state of emergency in the worst-affected areas.

 A Tornado forms when warm winds meet cooler winds, as the two winds move around each other a spiral of spinning air forms, this is know as a vortex . The vortex can spin at up to 300 mph. A wind that strong can destroy most things in its path. Objects, animals and even people have been picked up and hurled many miles away!

Below is a list of dangers straight from the Centre Of Responsible Nanotechnology website

 Molecular manufacturing (MM) will be a significant breakthrough, comparable perhaps to the Industrial Revolution—but compressed into a few years. This has the potential to disrupt many aspects of society and politics. The power of the technology may cause two competing nations to enter a disruptive and unstable arms race. Weapons and surveillance devices could be made small, cheap, powerful, and very numerous. Cheap manufacturing and duplication of designs could lead to economic upheaval. Overuse of inexpensive products could cause widespread environmental damage. Attempts to control these and other risks may lead to abusive restrictions, or create demand for a black market that would be very risky and almost impossible to stop; small nanofactories will be very easy to smuggle, and fully dangerous. There are numerous severe risks—including several different kinds of risk—that cannot all be prevented with the same approach. Simple, one-track solutions cannot work. The right answer is unlikely to evolve without careful planning.

More coming SOON! :p
