Snow Packet #1
Finance: Take the chapter 8 exam
Anatomy: Cardiac Lab – Analyze how the heart responds
to physical stress by measuring heart rate (BPM) in the following categories: 1)
resting heart rate (sitting for 3 minutes, then measure 2) anticipatory
response (stand up and prepare for exercise measuring immediately after
standing 30 maximum exertion perform two minutes of burpees or “step-ups” then
immediately measure heart rate 4) recovery rate sit down for two minutes then
measure heart rate. Create a graph showing this information from the data you collect in a table.
Biology: The Great Alimentary Trek – Write a
travelogue from the perspective of a piece of food you eat as it travels through
your digestive tract. Sketch an image describing the organs as well as the
actions happening, including the proper terminology. Reference chapter 9.
Earth and Space: Science Investigation p196; you will
need construction paper, water, and a few small containers.
Order and Design: Blubber Glove Experiment – To understand
how mammals use blubber as a thermal insulator, use rubber gloves, a large bowl
of ice and water, and shortening (like Crisco or butter.) Place your bare hand
(with a glove) into the ice water and start a timer to see how long you can
COMFORTABLY keep it there. Then Place your hand in the “blubber glove” and see
how long it can stay submerged comfortably. Collect data and make a chart showing
the time comparison.
