Transcript Today in Science - JJ Daniell Middle School

These are some of the slides that we have
discussed the past week or so.
You will notice that some slides tell you to
go to a page in our text book. Be sure to do
that.
It will be best to watch it as a slide show.
Good afternoon:
On your Response page write one of each of
the following about the cartoon:

• On your notebook paper labeled WARMUP write qualitative observation,
quantitative observation and Inference.
Then pick on picture from the next slide
and write an example of each for the
picture you select.
Come back to this
after 30 minutes
More Practice
Observation vs. Inference
Qualitative observation = no numbers
Quantitative observations = numbers
Inference = something you figure out,
opinion
Living or Non-Living

Are these items living organisms or not?
All Living things . . . .
• Read pages 38 – 41. You and your seat
partner can read silently or read together.
Take turns– 12 inch voices.
• When you get to a characteristic of living
things write it down on your paper.

Take turns– 12 inch voices.
• After reading go back to your NB# 11 and
write another column of living or non-living
using the knowledge you just learned from
the text book.

Susan and her plants
Problem:
Gather Info: this was what she noticed at first.
The plant accidentally watered with lime water
was greener.
Hypothesis:
Experimental procedure: Give details here: i.e.
how many plants, how often watered, how much
water, what was Susan’s control group?
Results:
Conclusion: Susan’s hypothesis was supported
by her experiment.

G
• Growth is getting bigger.
• To develop is to change as you grow.
Example: learning to talk is development.
• How would you test growth?
• Weigh it every week.
R
• Reproduction is the forming of a new
individual or offspring.
• There are two types of reproduction
– Sexual Reproduction = two parents
– Asexual Reproduction = one parent

from the parent plant

• Stems cut and put in
water will grow roots

the Betta fish bowl is
a clone of this plant. I
cut off a stem and put
it in water.

Adjust and Adapt
• To adjust is to react to something in the
environment.
• stimulus causes a response
• An adaptation is an inherited change.
DanielPedia Intro
Were you surprised when this
popped up?
The stimulus is the picture and
your surprise is the response.
Adaptations
fish fins allow it to live in H2O
Cactus can survive
the desert.
Can we test A2 ?
• Since adaptations occur over many
generations, you can’t really test it – but
look at a species over time.
• But how about adjusting? How could we
test this?
– Put it in a cold room? Try to scare it?

C Cells with similar Chemicals
• The cell is the basic unit of structure of an
organism.
• Some organisms are one cell –
like bacteria, yeast and amoebas
• Plants and animals are multicellular

Energy
The sun is the source of most of the energy
on Earth. Plants and other autotrophs use
the sun, then we eat them.
Seaweed
seaworm
fish
shark
 Autotrophs (producers) – can make their
own food using the sun. Ex. plants, some
protists & bacteria.
 Heterotrophs (consumers) can not make
their own food. To get energy they must
eat or absorb nutrients. Ex: all animals
and fungi, some protists, and bacteria.
 Homeostatis – organism’s ability to
maintain stable internal conditions.

Test for Energy?
See if it will eat something.
See if it is warmer than room
temperature
See if it eliminates waste.
