MAST day at the Beach

On tuesday me and my homeport class (Dr.haun) went with group two to the beach which is very conveniently placed in front of the school. We spent the entire day there and saw many form of marine life, we also saw many species of flora, i was impressed with all the variation of plants in such a small area. While in the water i searched for different species of marine wildlife some of the most notable animals that i saw where: 3 leopard fish, an upsidedown jellyfish, a blue crab, a green shrimp, a pufferfish and a two very large crab claws. Another very cool experience that i had was able to eat a piece of a sea grape, it actually tasted good. The name of my partner which helped me look for animals in the ocean was Luanna she was very good and always was ready to put fish in the bucket or hold the bucket, i was very lucky to have a good partner like her. Me and Luanna actuallyhad a hardtime capturing the sea life one example was when two easily 4 pund weighing fish, not just any fish LEOPARD FISH passed by us i caught it with the net but they jumped out of the net and back in to their home, it was a huge waste since all the fish and animals were returned to the sea after we classified them. We also caught several crabs and many pipe fish also we caught a sea horse which was very cool. This experience was very amazing i had never seen most of the animals that me and my classmates caught. But the fact that i had this experience is great and for that i am very grateful.

Science project Ideas

 #1 Warped words and Stroop effect:

I chose this project because i found it interesting how difficult it began to be when i started to read the warped and colored words and i was curious if other people would have similar results to me or if they could read it easily.

#2 Caffeine and Heart Rate: A Pharmacological Study Using Daphnia magna:

I chose this one because its dealing with real animal organs and caffeine which we use and consume daily i really want to know what happens when we consume caffeine through a Daphnia Magna.

#3 Crossed Up: Does Crossed Hand/Eye Dominance Affect Basketball Shooting Percentage?

i added this idea because i like the sports theme and it actually makes sense being crosseyed could help or hurt your shot im not shure which one, thats the point of the project... I like it
