Post 3: BioHeroes!


Hey everyone! My BioHero is the Mighty Messenger (medulla oblongata and acetylcholine). Gifted with great intellect and a daring spirit, the Mighty Messenger is well-known in her community for bringing people together. Many years ago, her parents were incarcerated due to a violent argument they got into with each other. Ever since then, she vowed to be super helpful and kind to the people around her. Her friends have always known her as the mediator in conflicts, and everything she did always came from the heart. Her mantra is that everyone should treat other with love and respect, and communication is key to building strong relationships. She uses these special communication powers to combat evil and advise people on how to resolve their conflicts with each other to make the world a better place, one kind word at a time!


The Mighty Messenger is part of the Fantastic Four, accompanied by Queen Cobra, Talking Embracer, and Iris Adrenaline. Together they work to defeat evil!

Post 2: How good is your memory?

Image
Hey guys! I took a few memory tests this week and overall, I've discovered that my memory is pretty average? The tests were fun to take, and I'll definitely be taking more in the future to see if my memorizing ability changes! Number Memory Test This test started with testing if you were able to recall one number, and went up from there. I was pretty satisfied with my results, as I was able to remember 11 digits. However, I think that these results can easily vary based on certain factors, like if the numbers were in an easily identifiable pattern, or if they followed a sequence of some sort. Because of this, I think the results aren't as accurate as they could be. Everyday Object Memory Test This memory test tested whether or not you could remember what a penny looked like (i.e. what side Abe Lincoln was facing, and where the writing on it was). I surprisingly got everything right except for what side Abe was facing. I think I probably would have done better if

Post 5: Senses and Stuff

Hey guys! This week I read an article about the connection between certain diseases and their odor. It was kind of gross honestly, but also really cool! For example, scrofula is associated with the smell of stale beer, typhoid fever with baked bread, yellow fever with a butcher's shop, diptheria with a sweet scent, diabetic ketosis with decomposing apples, and hyperaminoaciduria with dried malt/hops. It mentioned how doctors in the early days started sniffing their patients to diagnose them with certain diseases. Animals were also able to detect disease in humans, and in one study, rodents were able to avoid sick individuals through odor detection alone, and dogs were able to detect cancer in humans through scent! Also, the literal sense of smell could also play a part in diagnosis of dementia and Parkinson's disease. An impaired sense of smell is one of the early signs of both diseases, and it affects their ability to identify and recognize odors. I thought this was super inte
