Present day people see tie dye as a way of showing hippie spirit, but tie dye was used for than just a way of showing spirit. During time when china was ruled by dynasties tie dye was used as a symbol to show rank in society. This symbol was used worldwide form and still used today in most parts of the world. Tie dye wasn’t as developed back then as it is today. To create dyes, the craftsmen would use natural dyes like oils, plants, roots, and berries for color then boiling them I water so that they would dilute the water changing the water into sections of bright colors dipping separate section of the fabric so that the colored water would stain the normal cotton or silk so that when done, the once normal cloth would be bright and colorful;…
When I first signed up for color guard, I was just following the lead of my older sister who was also doing it. Thinking this was going to be an easy experience I soon realized that it was nothing how I thought it was going to be. By experiencing the practices and how much time and effort goes into it gained a new respect for my sister for sticking with this because honestly, she was known for being lazy. After getting to feel this amazing feeling after my first performance, color guard also became a passion of mine. Color guard is can be found in most middle schools, high schools and universities.…
When I saw the flyer for color guard my eighth-grade year I was perplexed as it didn't specify what color guard was other than an exciting activity that lets you be apart of marching band. I was skeptical that I would actually like color guard but at the first clinic, I knew I had found a family and exciting activity to pursue. Watching the upperclassmen toss rifles, sabers, and flags with such ease and confidence made me excited to learn and achieve that level of confidence. This year will be my fourth year in marching band, I am still in Color Guard and it is easily one of the activities I’m most passionate about. My love to perform on the marching field takes away the anxiety I usually have, throughout the years my confidence has risen…

A 72 set of Copic markers is an essential art item that is needed to step up my ink drawings. I have filled up over three sketchbooks with ongoing ink drawings for the last two years. The brand that I have been using for nine months, Nicole’s Designer markers, has given be decent results. However, those markers only come in 48 colors and I need more options in order to improve my work. Based off my research, these Copic markers have received countless positive reviews from professional artists.…
Water Contamination and Sulfide Mining Sulfide mining, also called hard rock mining, is used to extract and produce metals such as copper, nickel, and gold from rock containing sulfur deposits. These metals are used in products that are needed to support our everyday lives. Unfortunately, sulfide mining can produce a toxic side product that can pollute water sources. This side product is known as Acid Mine Drainage.…
The question I chose for my Student Inquiry Project is “Could Spider Silk Be Used To Create Military Grade Body Armour”. This is due to the fact that prior to SIP beginning I had been reading up on the strengths and potential uses of spider silk. Once I had decided that I wanted my question to revolve around spider silk, I began further research on the uses of spider silk and found that it varied from medical uses such as artificial skin and bandages to commercial uses such as airbags in cars. The most interesting potential use that I found was in fact body armour, this is due to spider silk being an extremely song substance and if done correctly can be stronger than the current material used to create body armour, Kevlar.…
The question of our childhood seemed to be one that we can all recall: “What do you want to be when you grow up?” Typically, we would say things like, “I want to be an astronaut,” or, “I want to be a princess.” As kids, we think big; however, as we get older, we figure that these aspirations to be a ballerina, to be the president, become more farfetched. Instead, we set more day-to-day based goals. Our goals change all the time.…
During pregnancy, there are many hazardous agents that the mother should avoid in order to prevent a negative outcome on the fetus. These dangerous agents are known as teratogens and behavioral teratogens. A teratogen is an agent, which can cause a birth defect. Teratogens are usually something in the environment that the mother is exposed to during the pregnancy. On the other hand, a behavioral teratogen harms the prenatal brain, affecting the baby's intellectual and emotional functioning.…
What is chlorine and how does it have an impact on humans’ health and the environment? Chlorine is a chemical element that was discovered by Carl Wilhelm Scheele in 1774. Its symbol is Cl and its atomic number is 17. Chlorine has the physical form of a diatomic greenish-yellow gas at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. 1. 2.…
The hypothesis could be proven. If water is filtered through a pine dowel, then this permeable wood will filter the impurities out of the water through the process of osmosis. The water will pass through leaving the impurities behind. This experiment did prove the hypothesis however, it may have worked better if more time was allowed for most of the water to go completely through the wood, if the wood were less dense, and if the dirt in the water wasn’t so fine. In my experiment I observed that some water and dye did soak completely through the wood, but only a few drops of water came through into the bottom chamber.…
Ammonia is a compound composed of nitrogen and hydrogen, having the formula NH3. The ammonia molecule is formed by sp3 orbitals as it has a tetrahedral geometry and a trigonal pyramidal shape. Ammonia has an experimentally determined bond angle of 106.7°, and an a bond length of 101.7 pm. The nitrogen atom in the molecule has a lone electron pair, which gives the molecule a dipole moment and polarity. Ammonia’s lone electron pair makes NH3 a base, a proton acceptor, and gives it the ability to readily form bonds.…
By: Jorden and Claudia In the next couple paragraphs you will learn about copper sulfates names, its agricultural uses, its industrial uses, the many hazards, safety precautions, activity series, and displacement reaction. Also copper sulfate can be very useful but it is also very dangerous. Copper sulfate (CuSO4 and 5H2O) is also known as Blue Vitriol, Bluestone, Salzburg vitriol, Roman vitriol, Turkish stone, and Blue copperas. The mineral form of CuSO4 is chalcanthite.…
