Metric system - A standardized system of units based on 10. Generally, the measurement system used in science, and in everyday life through most of the world (but not in the United States, which uses the British system).

Tucker Oppenheim April 29, 2011 Gray C block Friday reading Graphene The material graphene can be described as a tiny layer composed of graphite. In the article it goes over the possibility of graphene being used as a new and up and coming material. The reason they think this is because it is the thinnest material able to be made. Some uses they believe might be useful are the use of graphene in the making of batteries. The goal would be to minimize the space required for battery operation. In addition to it's thin demeanor, they say its trait's will change future technology greatly. It is said to be 200 times stronger than steel.

Reema Patel December 03, 2010 Period: 6 Why a Molecule?s Shape Matters 3 things I found interesting The average person can discriminate between 4,000 to 10,000 different odor molecules They can fit properly into these receptor sites, which transmit impulses to the brain. The brain then identifies these impulses as a particular aroma. About 75% of what we taste is actually coming from out nose! That?s why when you are sick sometimes the food doesn?t taste as good. Caffeine can affect your perception of pain by binding to endorphin receptors. 2 things I would like to know more about: I would like to know more on how the nose and mouth work together and how they affect our taste buds More on how caffeine and other drugs affecting our body and brain would be interesting.
