1.The ideas are connected because i already knew that there are things that all living organisms need. I did not know that it was a 20 set of amino acids that make up entire life through.
2.well the question how did earth know what these amino acids work to live life? Its cool to think about, that there are a group of amino acids things that all living organisms need to survive. Really cool how they are looking at things from space that have these amino acids and etc. that could of created the earth and life. Unfortunately most of that evidence is not on earth.
3.the thought that if there is one change in these amino acids can change everything and the overall being of that organism is scary to think about. My question still remains how is it that there is a specific set of things all living things need when all we do is live are life not thinking about that? Because i have never even really thought about life before. I mean I've just thought about how did life start where are we right now? Is life just you live and than you die?
I think its so intresting how sceintist make there entire life on studying just one thing. I think the fact that everyone should know how life was created and how we live from these things that we dont even know areIn Mpx this week i really enjoyed getting back to doing class with an actually teacher. Because last week was almost a joke in class because everyone was playing on there ipads. When writing my enders game paper some of the problems i had was that i really never exlained an agrument that i had, my grmmar was good but definately some editing will help. Normally the teacher says do the final paper turn it in being able to critque what we do will help so much more. Ending are rwanda genocide case was good but there is literally just too much we dont know. I would of enjoyed going over something that we could of really figured out who did it and why they did it. we got are case down to about 5 groups of people who we think really started and led the killing in the genocide. Everyone had different thoughts about who did what. I belive my final guess was correct that the europeans who came in and said the tutsis had more power and were better really ended up to start this genocide from a statement that was 50 to 60 years ago. I feal some what accomplished from this investagtion but i dont feal like i know what fully happened which isnt that big of deal but just kinda finshises the case. I like how we are starting to do geometry in mpx thats definately a bonus, so i dont forget math. I think in class with the ipads its not so much a huge problem for me to play games, but i feal like we need to set rules becuase its becoming to much of an interuption during class. Maybe like we have class the whole time no ipads, then the last 5-10 minutes of class we can do whatever we want on are ipads or something along those lines. I like the fact we get to go on a feildtrip next week because its a plus being able to see things so than you can tell people about what you learned and did while there. And the fact that i was really intrested by the last feildtrip we took. My parents were asking me to tell them what i learned there and they were happy to listen about what i had to say. I think as long as i stay on task and really think hard on my assigments mpx is really the perfect fit for me and i will come out some much smarter from the previouw year.
Main things i was notecing that people with makeing alot of grammar mistakes. I got some good input from people looking at my paper. They said that i needed to have more of and argument about my thoughts on my paper and i think thats a reasonable comment becuase i never really had an argument.I think ill be able to rewrite and make my final paper really well, some things i liked when reading isiahs that the whole paper he was aregueing beans size and the affect that had on him. I feal like that aspect of his paper will help me revise mine.

Of the total energy used in america 39% is to create electricity.All forms of electricity have an environmental impact.If we use combined heat to create electricity we can reduce the amount of fuel it takes to create electricity.What is combined heat? And how is it used to help create electricity? How do we reduce the amount of electricity the entire world is using? Because with the amount of fuel we have left we cant be wasting it all on electricity.
This week in mpx i really enjoyed the way we reviewed are infographics from the previous week with the other mpx class. I thought that was very helpful to see those comments. I am excited to see how are knew group rwanda infographics are going to look. The fact that where all answering the questions we wanted to know is really cool than we can add it all up and im really intrested to see how they look at the end. This week we also did our first sceince lab, i was true with my hypothesis so i feal really good about that. And it was helpful doing work with the corks too. Teamwork in mpx is definatley makeing us all better as a group. Are group has answered about 4 questions: what happned after rwanda? how did it start? why did it happen so fast? what happened during? The fact that we are answering these 4 questions will put up a really good amount of research to make a infograph.Im excitted to see all the infographics that are going to be put together by our class. I didnt have any problems answering my rwanda questions. I just researched alot and found out all the facts that i wanted to know and looked at tons of websites and on the mpx page with all the videos. The videos were a little harder for me to watch. Waatching people die,espically children on a small film was hard to watch. This week we also did the charcter profile. That was good, i wrote about ender. It was not that hard for me i thought ender was a pretty easy charcter to discuss. He had some many traits throughout his journey and the games. I just sat down and wrote the 8 paragraphs like it was nothing, I feal like we should do these writing papers more becuase it really inporves my writing and now next week we will be able to finalize it becuase it was just a draft this week.The only problem was really finding a quote that went well to explain what ender's peronsnailty. The fact that ender was really smart really helped him though his journey. He didnt let anyone get in his head for him to know what he know was the right thing to do
