Tapeworms

This is a picture of a human and a Taeniasis or other wise known as the tapeworm. The relationship that they have is a parasitic relationship. As you see here in the picture taken in south Brunswick Monmouth Junction the tapeworm has just entered its victim. It will then make a journey to the digestive tract and eat all the food there. It will proceed to become bigger and will eventually come out with your stool. What can cause this to happen? Well the food that we eat if not cooked well tapeworms might still be on the food. Then the larvae and the tapeworm make a bigger tapeworm. How can we prevent this. It is easy you have to cook meat until it it does not look raw and if you feel like you have a tapeworm call the doctor right away.

boom blox

in science class we recently played with the wii. we played a game called boom blox. at first i thought it was a game of flying animals but then i realized that it wasn't. we began by just trying to hit the blox, we had no clue what the scientific part was about. Then we found out hat the objective of the game is to hit as many of the blox down in one move. it was a strategic yet enjoyable game. most people were trying to figure out how to play but they didn't hear the directions. it said try to knock down the ball and it will hit the blox. Apparently Boom blox is one of the games hospitals use to heal patients. Theses are very succesful games and that is why they are made.

Sultry to Scorching: Rising Temps May Be Too Hot for Tropical Species

we all know that the climate crisis is affecting our southern and northern snow caps. Now this crisis is now affecting the tropical plants and insects.recent studies show that most insects would have to move to the mountainside. the insects now have to move 2,000 feet into the mountain sides just to stay at a temperature that they enjoy. on the other hand the plants will have to find a way to save their spores. but sometimes I wonder is it worth it to kill all these plants just so we could have oil?
