The Eye Ball
This is my eyeball that I made for art.
SCLERA
The sclera is the white of the eye it is a thick layer that protects the eye.
IRIS
The iris makes you look at everything and is the color of your eye.
PUPIL
The pupil dilates when its dark and light. When its light it goes small and when
its dark it goes big and it is the opening in the iris.
Parallelograms
Here is my parallelograms. To make a parallelogram you get a piece of paper and you fold it in half. Next you cut the line in the middle. After that you multiply the width and the length. My two answers are 315cm square and 165cm square. Next with one of the pieces of paper you cut on a Angle up then you cellotape it to the opposite side of the paper. Then you do that over again as many times as you like.
Taste
Taste!!!
Chocolate, ice cream, lollies, brussel sprouts. are the The delicious and disgusting things you can taste with your mouth.
There are 4 main taste buds. They are sweet, sour, bitter and salty.The Taste Buds are a Sensory Organ. All the bumps on your tongue are called papillae. Most of the papilla contains taste buds. Taste buds have very sensitive tiny hairs called microvilli. The microvilli send messages to the brain about how something tastes. For Example Sweet, Sour, Bitter and Salty. The average person has about 10,000 taste buds, which are replaced every two weeks, But as you usually get older your taste buds sometimes don’t get replaced like they used to. Thats why some types of food may taste stronger to kids than they do to adults.
If you have a blocked nose your food might taste a little different than usual. Without your tongue or nose you would not have any taste. Your nose actually plays a part in taste, by smelling the food. Thats why whenever you have the flu, blocked nose or sick, you usually don’t think your favourite foods taste as great. While chewing, the food that you’re eating lets chemicals out. Those chemicals alert the olfactory receptors inside the nose. Then the Olfactory receptors and your taste buds start working together and tells your brain what your food tastes like.
When you have a cold or allergies, and your nose is stuffy, you might notice that your food doesn't seem to have much flavour. That's because the to part of your nose isn't clear to receive the chemicals that trigger the olfactory receptors that inform the brain and create the taste of the flavour. Try holding your nose the next time you eat something. You'll notice that your taste buds are able to tell your brain something about what you're eating that it's sweet, for example but you won't be able to pick the correct flavor until you let go of your nose.
