About My Blog
Hi my name is Michelle Latibeaudiere
And in this blog is about science you can learn things or refresh your knowledge every week I will have a summary about a topic that I learn of my science class each week. Enjoy the science knowledge.

Build Up and Breaking Down
Summary 1
Have you ever seen mountains in the distance?
But you know how is a mountain made?
As the crust (the first layer of the earth) move the rocks of the crust change.
They can change position they can move up, down ,or sideways .Rocks can also change their shape.
Bu how that happen? by: weathering and erosion.
Weathering: is the breaking down of rocks into small pieces.
Erosion: is the picking up and removal of rocks fragment and others particles.
Weathering example: plant ,wind, animal, acid .
Erosion example: minerals, rocks.

Lift, Carry, and, Drop
Summary 2
Many processes are at work changing the shape of Earth’s surface. These forces act like a sculptor’s tools. Even while forces are building mountains in the crust process are at work chiseling into them and wearing them down.
We are going to see how does lift carry ,and drop work
Gravity is always pulling things from high places. This down hill movement of Earth material caused by gravity is called mass wasting ,it depend largely on how deep a slope is. It can happen slowly, particle by particle ,over years.
The sediment is dropped off at the bottom of the hill or at places where the hill becomes less steep called deposition.
The Rock Cycle
Summary 3
Have you ever wondering where a rock came from? What kind of processes form a rock?
· First the rock forming from molten material that called igneous rock, they form when hot liquid rock material cools and hardens into solid.
· Second the rock form from pieces of other rocks that are squeezed called sedimentary rock.
· Third the rock form from another kind of rock is changed by heat pressure or by chemical reaction called metamorphic rock.
· And then the rock continually change this is a never ending process called rock Cycle
Geologic Time
Summary 4
Did you know how to find the rock age is easy . Finding the age of rocks is based on two ideas.
· Original horizontally this idea explains that sedimentary rocks forms in the horizontal layers.
· Superposition in a series of rocks layer the bottom layer is the oldest ,the tpo layer is the youngest Using this two ideas , scientist try to determine the relative age.
Learning About Heredity
Summary 5
What are some characteristic that plants or animals might pass along to their offspring?
We know that the young usually resemble their parents but no exactly. How characteristic passed from parent to child ?A characteristic that is passed from parent to offspring is called an inherited trait. Heredity is the passing of these traits from one generation to the next . The word generation refer to parents and offspring parents are one generation, the offspring are another. Heredity applies to all organism including plants animals, and even bacteria. Fur color is an inherited trait passed from cats to their kittens. Humans have inherited traits too .
Predicting traits
Summary 6
What refer when someone says predict traits this mean that the parents have a offspring they want to know what trait it will have to the father , to the mother or maybe inhered from their other generations , but this is only refer to an specific trait first we have to know who is the dominant who their traits will show physically in the offspring , and recessive that it trait is in their sex cell when it reproduce the grandchild will inhered. And then you make a square in the top is male put is if dominant(R R), reccesive (r r) or hybrid(Rr).Hybrid is when is dominant and recessive
How Heredity Works
Summary 7
In the cells when have the nucleus inside the nucleus we have chromosomes . That is the human sex cells and whe have 23 chromosomes and they contain an specific trait each inside this we have DNA, Contains the code that tell to each cell how to operate. The DNA organism is not the same from the others organism
