  • Heart Project due Tuesday 11/03
    Part 1 of 3: Build a Model of the Human Heart

    Do not spend a lot of money to make this model!
    Use material laying around the house/garage/etc.

    Remember no sharp metals, sharp edges, edible parts, etc.

    Model should be 3-D, show internal and external anatomy; think about how you will construct the model and PLAN before you begin.

    Be creative!

    Be innovative!

    Get family members, friends, etc. to help you.   Have fun!

.

.

Label the following parts of your models:
Some structures will only be visible externally: others will only be visible internally, build accordingly.

.

Suggestion: Most students find it useful to build a structure with the external parts clearly visible but opens to reveal the internal anatomy.

.

1. Right Ventricle
2. Left Ventricle
3. Right Atrium
4. Left Atrium
5. Superior Vena Cava
6. Inferior Vena Cava
7. Pulmonary Artery
8. Pulmonary Vein
9. Aortic Arch
10. Pulmonary Semilunar Valve
11. Septum
12. Aortic Semilunar Valve
13. Myocardium
14. Coronary Sinus (akaThebesian valve)
15. Tricuspid Valve (aka right atrioventricular (AV) valve) Use Tricuspid on drawings and model.
16. Bicuspid Valve (aka Mitral Valve and left atrioventricular (AV) valve) Use bicuspid on drawings and model.
17. Pacemaker
18. Coronary blood vessels
19. Sinoatrial (SA) node ·
20. Atrioventricular (AV) node
21. Bundle of His
22. Purkinje fibers

.

Part 2 of 3: Draw the external and internal anatomy (cross-section) of the human heart in your sketchbook. due Tuesday 11/03

.

On the first page, sketch the external anatomy of the human heart; label using the list above.
On the facing page, sketch the internal anatomy of the human heart; label using the list above.

.

Note: Most structures will be located and labeled on both but all of the structures will NOT be on both pages i.e. the valves are located internally and the coronary vessels are located externally. The general location of the chambers should be labeled on both even though they are only truly visible from the inside.

.

Part 3 of 3: Create a chart.

On a separate sheet of paper, discuss the physiology (function) of each (22) structure that is listed above.
Do not place this inside the sketchbook (SB) when you submit it; place this one in the box on the day you submit the SB.

If you have been absent, please make sure your parents excuse your absence as per SBBC policy.
Work missed during an unexcused absence will be assigned a "Z" grade until the absence has been excused and/or the work has been submitted. Once the work has been submitted and/or the absence has been excused, an "X" will be show up in the Pinnacle grade slot.
Check Pinnacle to determine what you need to make up. If you need to discuss grades, see me IMMEDIATELY following class (takes less than 1 minute) or send me an email about the grade or write me a note and place it in "the box" on my desk.
If you place a note in "the box" or send me an email, I will respond within 24 hours. If you stop by my desk, I will take care of the issue at that time.
Individual student grades will not be discussed during instructional time.
A "Z" averages in as a "0"; an "X" does not average negatively into the grade.
Please Note:
Papers have been submitted that do not contain student names. Obviously, these papers have not been entered into Pinnacle.

Science Project due Friday, May 15

The project should be geared toward the human body.

Examples may include reaction time studies, variations of the stroop effect, the effects of standing, sitting, lying down on the pulse rate (this is ok since it is not invasive and does not pose any danger to the subject; no stressful physical activity can be involved), using Snellen Charts to test visual acuity, vision near-point (accomodation) in various subjects of different ages, memory studies, effectiveness of sunscreen (no human/animal subjects),

General Guidelines:

Do's

  • Do email me your ideas for your topic prior to Monday, April 27. (All projects MUST be preapproved BEFORE you begin experimentation)

        Projects that have not been preapproved will not be accepted.

  • Do let me know if you would like to use a recycled board instead of purchasing one. (I have several in the classroom).
  • Do begin planning now.
  • Do keep it simple.

Dont's

  • Do not spend money to complete this project unless you choose to do so (There are many ways to do this without incurring an expense.)
  • Do not experiment on any type of vertebrate (animal that contains a backbone)...including Nemo or his cousins, your pet cat, your brother's hamster, your dog, Fido or his playmate, your best friend's boyfriend, your neighbor, cousin, parents, etc. : )

       There are a few exceptions to this rule if the project involves the Special Senses i.e. reaction time, visual perception, audition, tactile sense, etc.

       These projects must be preapproved.

  • Do not wait until the last minute.
  • Do not (or ask anyone else to) lick, taste, eat, or swallow anything!
  • Do not use ANY type of caustic or flammable liquid such as, but not limited to, bleach, ammonia, gasoline, charcoal lighter, battery or pool acid, etc.
  • Do not use any open flames, grills, microwaves, ovens, stove top, hot plate, candles, etc.
  • Do not drive any type of vehicle (automobile, ATV, motor bike, etc. as a part of your experiment.
  • Do not observe, extract or test any body fluid including, but not limited to, saliva, tears, sweat, urine, etc.
  • Do not climb on roof tops, swim (or go near) canals, lakes, streams, or rivers, etc. as a part of completing this project.
  • Do not submit yourself or anyone else to radiation.

Something to think about

What does each phrase mean?

  • have a heart

  • change of heart

  • to know something by heart

  • broken heart

  • heartfelt

  • have your heart in the right place

  • cry your heart out

  • heavy heart

  • have your heart set on

Can you think of other similar references?

Think about it: Why do we reference the heart as the "seat of our emotions?"

Homework: 

1) Peruse the information on the website below tonight

              http://health.howstuffworks.com/heart.htm

2) Heart Project (guidelines below)

Part 1 of 2: Build a Model of the Human Heart

             due Tuesday, April 21 (Grad Night attendee? project due Wednesday, April 22)

             Do not spend a lot of money to make this model! Use material laying around the house/garage/etc.

             Remember no metals, sharp edges, edible parts, etc.

             Model should be 3-D, show internal and external anatomy; think about how you will construct the model and PLAN before you begin.

             Be creative!

             Be innovative!

             Have Fun!

Label the following parts of your models:

Some structures will only be visible externally: others will only be visible internally, build accordingly.

Suggestion: Most students find it useful to build a structure with the external parts clearly visible but opens to reveal the internal anatomy.

1. Right Ventricle
2. Left Ventricle
3. Right Atrium
4. Left Atrium
5. Superior Vena Cava
6. Inferior Vena Cava
7. Pulmonary Artery
8. Pulmonary Vein
9. Aortic Arch
10. Pulmonary Semilunar Valve
11. Septum
12. Aortic Semilunar Valve
13. Myocardium
14. Coronary Sinus (akaThebesian valve)
15. Tricuspid Valve (aka right atrioventricular (AV) valve) Use Tricuspid on drawings and model.
16. Bicuspid Valve (aka Mitral Valve and left atrioventricular (AV) valve) Use bicuspid on drawings and model.

17. Pacemaker

18. Coronary blood vessels

19. Sinoatrial (SA) node ·

20. Atrioventricular (AV) node

21. Bundle of His

22. Purkinje fibers

Part 2 of 2:: Draw the external and internal anatomy (cross-section) of the human heart in your sketchbook.

On the first page, sketch the external anatomy of the human heart; label using the list above.

On the facing page, sketch the internal anatomy of the human heart; label using the list above.

Note: Most structures will be located and labeled on both but all of the structures will NOT be on both pages i.e. the valves are located internally and the coronary vessels are located externally. The general location of the chambers should be labeled on both even though they are only truly visible from the inside.

On a separate sheet of paper, discuss the anatomy (structure) and the physiology (function) of each (22) structure that is listed above.

Do not place this inside the sketchbook (SB) when you submit it; place this one in the box on the day you submit the SB.

Science Word:  hidrosis= sweating

Synonyms: diaphoresis (n), perspiration (n), sudation (n), sweating (n).

FYI: Burns on the human body are classified into three different degrees of burns: first degree burns, second degree burns, and third degree burns. First degree burns are the least severe of the degrees of burns, while third degree burns are the worst.

All burns generally come from exposure to extreme heat, which may include hot liquids like boiling water or cooking oil, from a sunburn, or from a fire. It is also possible to be burned by severe cold; these burns look much the same and are treated in similar methods to burns from severe heat. The variation in degrees of burns from one case to another can depend on the degree of heat or coldness, the physical proximity to the heat or cold source, and the amount of time exposed to the source.

The most minor of the degrees of burns, the first degree burn, only extends to the top layer of skin, the epidermis, which means that it will generally not leave a permanent scar. These burns can occur when a person momentarily touches a hot object like a stove or a radiator, but does not hold his or her body to the object long enough to sustain serious damage. The result of a first degree burn will be a temporary redness and soreness in the area affected.

Somewhat more serious in the degrees of burns is the second degree burn, which causes immediate redness, and within a day or two will result in a blister that fills with pus. Unlike the other degrees of burns, second degree burns may be more or less painful depending on whether the burn affects the nerves.

The most severe of the three degrees of burns, the third degree burn, always causes lasting damage. In the most serious of the degrees of burns, the skin is charred and will separate from the body in a type of scab called an eschar. With an eschar, the victim is not in pain because the burns have destroyed the nerve endings in the skin. In cases where a person has received third degree burns and survived, cosmetic reconstructive surgery is often necessary, where a graft of skin will be taken from a healthy part of the person's body and stitched into a burned area.

By some accounts, there are three other degrees of burns, though they are not commonly discussed. Burns where the skin is irreparably damaged can be called fourth degree burns; burns where the muscle beneath the skin is also lost are called fifth degree burns; and burns where the bone itself is charred are called sixth degree burns.
