Science Blog 5

1. What science ideas did you learn?

I learned the actual size of organisms and how we can barley see bacteria even with a microscope. I also learned that we might find paramecium in the pond water because that is pound in freshwater poundwater. I learned the definitions of words I did not know such as anoeba proteus. This week I also learned the parts of a microscope so i could pass the microscope quiz. From our test results I learned that the chicken from the Cheap Chicken Hut had a lot of bacteria colonies and the blade of the knife didn't. The pond water had a lot of living organisms.

2. How did you learn these ideas?

I learned these ideas by looking at the simulation to find the actual size of organsims. I learned about organisms in the pond water by researching what I found under the microscope online. I also looked online for the definitions I did not know that were included in the survey. I learnde about the test results by observing the results in the peitree dish and under the micrscope.

3. Why is it important to learn these ideas?

It is important to learn these ideas because by knowing more on what you discovered in your test results you can come to better conclusions. If you didn't know anything sbout the size of bacteria, your conclusion might sound like this, "in my results for the pond water i saw a lot of bacteria under the microscope" and that's incorrect.
