Did you know that sunlight can make you smarter?

Did you know that sunshine can do more effects other than giving you skin cancer? Sunlight can make you smarter. This type of light is classified under U.V. light within the electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic spectrum consists of different types of waves ranging from light waves all the way through gamma rays. Some of these rays can cause death (gamma rays), while either types of waves can be extremely beneficial to your health(x-rays). Depending on how you much h exposure to these waves or how often you use these waves can impact you in a positive or negative way(s). 
Image result for could sunlight make you smarterAs you may know, long term exposure to sunlight can cause skin cancer. With little exposure, sunlight can provide you with essential vitamin D. Vitamin D has the ability of changing your mood. The research and conclusions were all from experimenting with mice. The results said that after 30 minutes of U.V. light exposure the mice were more balanced (were able to walk on a meatal rod). After the external tests they further explored the inside of the mice. After another 30 minutes of exposure they had increased in the amount of urocanic acid in their blood. The investigation of the mice was essential in order to start research of U.V effects with our human bodies. 
With the research conducted with the mice, they figured that the U.V light could have similar effects on humans. If sunlight could generate memory and learning improvements in mice, the same could be true for the human brain. But they don’t want to expose you with too much U.V. light. As I wrote earlier, this light can cause skin cancer and blindness. Many researchers and doctors recommend 5-10 minutes of sun exposure 3 days a week in the course of the summer. You want to limit the amount of exposure especially from 10am to 4pm in the summer.  
Image result for could sunlight make you smarter imagesI think that scientist will undoubtably take this information and data to a whole new level. I think they will do this by creating or using existing technology. One of the reasons I think that they will want to take it to a whole new level is because they want to give people informative or reliable information. This information will be on how they should either limit their exposure to these particular waves or how they should just have knowledge that can benefit their health. In conclusion, this engaging topic is very popular among scientist.

Chemically termolecular reactions: The fourth class of chemical reactions

Chemically termolecular reactions: The fourth class of chemical reactions Maisy Chase Up until now only three classes of chemical reactions were known. Unimolecular reactions occur when one reactant undergoes bond breaking or forming to create different products. Bimolecular reactions are where two reactants collide and then undergo bond breaking or forming. Termolecular association reactions, where two reactants collide to form a whole with a new chemical bond between the two reactants. A third molecule, known as the bath gas, then removes some of the internal kinetic energy of that molecule to stabilize it. Researchers from Columbia University , led by Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering Michael P. Burke, have discovered a fourth class of chemical reaction known as “chemically termolecular reactions.” This involves the breaking and bonding of three molecules. The team showed that these chemically termolecular reactions not only are major chemical pathways but also ...

Mahar-ullah Shahminah- Molecular Gastronomy

Molecular Gastronomy   By: Shahminah Mahar-ullah Date:3/22/19 Molecular Gastronomy is both a fusion of science and cooking. The scientific discipline gives the chef complete control of what the texture, taste, and physical appearance of the dish. Molecular Gastronomy is a modern unique style of cooking that some would say it could be considered art. There are three aspects of Molecular Gastronomy, as i said before it is texture,taste,and physical appearance. Molecular Gastronomy can have a very simple and familiar taste or a new and unique taste. Taste is often a aspect that is forgotten about in Molecular Gastronomy. Mostly because people who don't know much about the style of cooking kinda forget that its actually cooking ,not just some form a science. Taste is the main focus with cooking in general and with molecular cooking taste can be brought to a whole new level since you have complete control over each part of the dish. Same goes for physical appearance and ...

Force and Motion

Zach Fluck Science blog Force and Motion Blog Sir Isaac Newton was an English astronomer, physicist, and mathematician, born on December 25, 1642. He died on March 20, 1727, most likely from mercury poisoning or old age. However, during his life, he made several contributions to modern science and advanced our understanding of physics tremendously. Arguably his most famous discovery was gravity. However, he had to use his 3 laws of motion to make this accomplishment. Newton understood that an object at rest will stay at rest, unless acted on by unbalanced forces. Therefore, if an object such as an apple is in a resting position there must be a force to make the apple fall to the ground. He discovered this invisible force to be gravity. At a young age Newton was removed from school to be a farmhand. Despite returning to school the turning point in his live was he left his hometown to attend Cambridge University. After attending Cambridge he returned to his hometown where his observat...
