- The main types of diabetes are Type 1 and Type 2.

 - Type 1 is what you can be born with.

 - Type 2 is caused by lifestyle.

 - Diabetes is caused when your pancreas stops working and no longer produces insulin.

 - Prevention of type 2 is a healthy life style like, exercise and healthy food.

 - Diabetes can not be cured, when you have it most people use a pump or shots.

 (Reflection)- Diabetes is a wide spread disease, most commonly in America type 2 due to life style. But type 1 is common in families that it runs in. I can relate to this because my grandma and aunt have diabetes so I have to make sure to be healthy so I don't get it. I learned that pumps can inject it for you but that they are very expensive.

    Good job on spacing out the information it helped me learn it better. I didn't know that you could obtain diabetes during your life. Thank you for informing me that it is avoidable so I don't get it down the road.

Anaerobic Energy Production - MORGAN BANKS

Image
ANAEROBIC ENERGY PRODUCTION  Anaerobic Energy Production is one form of Cellular Respiration  This form requiers no oxygen  Is used for a fast burst of energy Occurs mostly in prokaryotes cells  Fermentation 1- lactic acid (makes muscles sore)  2- Alocholic REFLECTION - Anaerobic Production has no oxygen, therefore many of the things we do, do not involve anaerobic production! It involves the aerobic energy production. This is not only a good review for you but for me as well on how to justify the two.  http://slideplayer.com/slide/9078035/ MORE INFO: http://www.diffen.com/difference/Aerobic_Respiration_vs_Anaerobic_Respiration VIDEO/QUIZ:  http://study.com/academy/lesson/anaerobic-exercise-definition-benefits-examples.html

Genetic Variation: Mutations

Image
What is a mutation? A mutation is any change in the DNA sequence.  There are three types of mutations: * addition: One or more nucleotide base pairs are inserted into a DNA sequence (also called frameshift mutation)  *deletion: The removal of one or more nucleotides in a DNA sequence (also called frameshift mutation) *substitution: A mutation that exchanges one or more bases for another (also called point mutation) How do they occur & why? Mutations for randomly, but different mutations occur different ways.  Most of the time a mutation comes from radiation (so like the sun, X-rays, tanning salons, etc). Some mutations can be genetic though, like autism. Autism is caused when theres an extra chromosome. Another common mutation would be cancer. Cancer occurs when cells uncontrollably grow, and don't die.  Can it be prevented?  Unfortunately, mutations are random. The best way to prevent them is to protect yoursel...
