The seventh grade class of AISZ went to an amazing trip to Bodies Revealed. It was related to our science class because next we are going into the human body. The expedition showed us people’s bones, mussels, nerves, lungs, brain, heart, kidney and much more. In my opinion, the coolest thing that we saw was unborn babies in tubes. It showed us how the baby looks like inside his mom’s belly. Another really cool thing we saw was the blood vessels of the hu
man body.DID YOU KNOW?! If we stretch our blood vessels we will have 100,000 miles of them!
NOW YOU KNOW!
We went into a room about smoking and saw what a healthy lung and a smoker’s lung. In that room, there was a box and a sign that said that smoking kills and that they what the smokers to live longer. It also said to through away your cigarettes into the box.
DID YOU KNOW?! Every cigarette takes 3 hours and 40 seconds of your life!
NOW YOU KNOW!
The brain w
as nice to see because they cut the brains into strips to show us the difference.DID YOU KNW?! A woman’s brain is 2.5% of their body’s weight but a man’s is only 2%!
KNOW YOU KNOW!
The man who started the expedition said this quote:
"Why all this interest in the human body? The answer to this question seem quite clear to me: your body is the only thing you carry with you from the moment you are born until your very last breath.”
- Dr. Roy Glover, Medical Director.
Overall this was a very fun and I think most people will do it again!
Don’t forget to email Ms. D. about the trip by Tuesday.
