MY PART FOR THE PROJECT

The part I have done has consisted in doing a research comparing the climate here and in Almeria.
I have also taken part in recording the advertisement with Azur and Sanse. I have also helped Javi doing the questionnaire. I also went to the fourth level to talk about Europe and Aiora and I spent also our time sticking stickers around the classes. I have also done my part for Ali and helped Aiora thinking about activities. Aiora Ali and I spoke with Mikel Prieto for the activity in the European day.

MY PART FOR ALI
Nora is doing the part from the research because Xabier the teacher told her to doi it. She learns biology at school so we though tha se would be the good student for do it. She has a lot of work to do searching for the medium average of the temperature precipitations mareas... from Cádiz and Donosti during the history.

             THIS IS EUROPE GUYS

 

MY PART
I am doing the part of the research . I'm going to compare the climatic conditions between our country and another country located outside Europe.
I will need help for seaching information about the clime of somewhere and also from here. Then i will do the comparaison by my self. 
I dont know exactly when I will have finished but I think that for the 25 of Aplir could be my part done. 

THE RESEARCH

I have to do a reseach about different types of climes and their changes all over Europe and I want to do a comparation between them. 
My partners have to work each in a different country and search for their clime, their pollution, their spieces... Fistly, we will work in pour clime, speciflicly in Donosti. Then, we will search for the chages in the history.
SEcondly I want to campare our clime with other climes around the continent.
Finally, Wwe will do a final conclusion with the changes.

 

3RD TERME

 The last term of this year we are going to be speakin and devating obout climatic cgange, but in a new way. At all we are going to take part in a competiton which is based on presenting a work done it with computers in 3 languages, basque, spanish and english.

AUTOEVALUATION

This term, the 2nd, we have been talking about various topics, such as biomedicine, genetics, food&health, pharmaceutical indrustry and types of medicine.
We did a presentation with each theme in groups. This activity was a bit boring and not to much exciting. 

 However, we also have been debating about how to stop the war. This was better than the previous one because with it, we could give our opinion and we could have been more creative.

At all this term was better than the 1st one.

 CAN WE AVOID WAR?

  All over the world people are fighting and dying, suffering and sacrificing,every day and freedom from war has become the first essential of human right.
Much more is involved, of course, than the simple absence of war. But without peace a lawful relations between nations or to protect peoples against the war can't be applicated.
In the history of our humanity we have invented better and better weapons of destruction.Countries have become more and more dependent on one another for the things they need.A lot of countries all over the war waste a lot of money on armamentitistic inssurance. These are some of the causes that have made modern war so ruinous . Everybody has tried to solve the problem of how to prevent war but nobody understands that the war moves a large amount of money an created interest as oil or gas . They don't know what modern war really is.
People have tried before to find a way of preventing war, but they have not succeeded. If the problem can be solved at all, one thing is certain: It will not be solved without a lot of hard working. And it isn't enough to leave this hard working to a few statesmen. In a democracy these are not the people who impose the great issues. They can only beimposed  by the the majority of the population. And they can be settled  only if the majority are willing to think about them coolly and carefully and to weigh the arguments for and against any proposed ways of settling them.

WAR

Weapons manufacturer is one of the most importan reasons to keep wars going on. The cyber security industry is becoming the most important defence industry as cyber attacks are being deemed as one of the greatest risk to defence in the next ten years as cited by the NATO review in 2013. Therefore, high levels of investment has been placed in the cyber security industry to produce new software to protect the ever growing transition to digitally run hardware. For the military industry it is vital that protections are used for systems used for reconnaissance, surveillance and intelligence gathering. However, to protect the cyber world from attacks there are advanced cyber protection strategies used such as content, cloud and wireless security. These can be intertwined to form several secure layers.

REFUGEES IN THE WORLD

Lot of people is moving from Colombia to Ecuador because of the violence, drugs traffic and the corruption of the governement.
At all, people who is living nowadays in Ecuador feels more safe than before.








The economical problems of the Mexican population causes the movilisation of a large group of people to USA who has the Mexican nacionality. Those  people wants a better life: a house to live and a job with a minimun salary. They hope to find these in North American states.

There is aslo a problem with Sirian refugees in the Europian states.
Conutries, such as Siria or Jerusalen are in war and their population is oblogatet to meve if theis want to preserve their lifes.

 HEALTH & LIFESTYLE

As we know, to be healthy and to have a good lifestyle we must have some  habits like having a properly diet or sleeping 8h per day. However, I have some ideas that I want to underline for havinf a healthy life: 

  

Eat Healthy: you must eat 5 pieces of fruit and vegetables per day and have a diet prenty of proteins. 

Drink Water: drink 1.5L of water every day, this will help you to expel toxines and fats.

Exercise Regulary: walking 1h minimun every day its a good exersise for you bones al muscles.

Reduce Stress: practising yoga or tai chi will help you for it. 

PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY

The pharmaceutical industry develops, produces, and markets drugs or pharpaceutical for use as medications. Pharmaceutical companies may deal in generic or brands medications and medical devices. They are subject to a variety of laws and regulations that govern the patening, testing, safety, efficacy and marketing of drugs.

HOW MEDICINS WORK

  US APPROVAL FOR DRUG THAT TURNS HERPES VIRUS AGAINST CANCER

  

The FDA is allowing the injectable drug Imlygic, made by Amgen Inc, to be used at first only on melanomas that cannot be removed surgically. The company said a single course would cost about $65,000 depending on the length of the treatment.The drug is injected directly into tumour tissue, where it uses herpes as a Trojan horse to slip past and rupture cancer cells. The drug combines a gene snippet meant to stimulate the immune system with a modified version of the herpes simplex virus — the kind that causes mouth cold sores.
Despite the drug’s groundbreaking approach FDA officials stressed it had not been shown to extend life. Instead company studies showed that about 16% of patients injected with the drug saw their tumours shrink, compared with 2% of patients who took more conventional cancer drugs. That effect lasted at least six months.

 NEW SUBJECT

On the next term(2nd term) our class and I are going to be working in biomedicin and scientifict research on this "world".

At all, we are going to do a work in little groups relationated to this theme of helth. I think tha publishing here this little work would be interesting and informative. So in a month more or less ypu wold have a new intro with more information about this issue.

AUTOEVALUATION

Fistly, I expect that this subjec will be more interesting and more practical at all. Instead of doing  entrees in blogs and reading theorical thing as Galileo Galilei's biography.

However, my accittude acording to this subject inste be the best and the most interested. All in all im gonna be more positivr and interested in thisd subject the next term.

Origin of life

PANSPERMIA
Perhaps life did not begin on Earth at all, but was brought here from elsewhere in space, a notion known as pansoermia  For instance, rocks regularly get blasted off Mars by cosmic impacts, and a number of Martian meteorites have been found on Earth that some researchers have controversially suggested brought microbes over here, potentially making us all Martians originally. Other scientists have even suggested that life might have hitchhiked on comets from other star systems. However, even if this concept were true, the question of how life began on Earth would then only change to how life began elsewhere space.

SIMPLE BEGINNINGS
Instead of developing from complex molecules such as RNA, life might have begun with smaller molecules interacting with each other in cycles of reactions. These might have been contained in simple capsules akin to cell membranes, and over time more complex molecules that performed these reactions better than the smaller ones could have evolved, scenarios dubbed "metabolism-first" models, as opposed to the "gene-first" model of the "RNA world" hypothesis.

RNA WORLD

Nowadays DNA needs proteins in order to form, and proteins require DNA to form, so how could these have formed without each other? The answer may be RNA, which can store information like DNA, serve as an enzyme like proteins, and help create both DNA and proteins. Later DNA and proteins succeeded this "RNA world," because they are more efficient. RNA still exists and performs several functions in organisms, including acting as an on-off switch for some genes. The question still remains how RNA got here in the first place. And while some scientists think the molecule could have spontaneously arisen on Earth, others say that was very unlikely to have happened. 

Other nucleic acids other than RNA have been suggested as well, such as the more esoteric PNA or TNA.

 CHILLY START

Ice might have covered the oceans 3 billion years ago, as the sun was about a third less luminous than it is now. This layer of ice, possibly hundreds of feet thick, might have protected fragile organic compounds in the water below from ultraviolet light and destruction from cosmic impacts. The cold might have also helped these molecules to survive longer, allowing key reactions to happen.

DEEP SEA VENTS

The deep-sea vent theory suggests that life may have begun at submarine hydrothermal vents, spewing key hydrogen-rich molecules. Their rocky nooks could then have concentrated these molecules together and provided mineral catalysts for critical reactions. Even now, these vents, rich in chemical and thermal energy, sustain vibrant ecosystems.

 COMMUNITY CLAY

The first molecules of life might have met on clay, according to an idea elaborated by organic chemist Alexander Graham Cairns-Smith at the University of Glasgow in Scotland. These surfaces might not only have concentrated these organic compounds together, but also helped organize them into patterns much like our genes do now.

The main role of DNA is to store information on how other molecules should be arranged. Genetic sequences in DNA are essentially instructions on how amino acids should be arranged in proteins. Cairns-Smith suggests that mineral crystals in clay could have arranged organic molecules into organized patterns. After a while, organic molecules took over this job and organized themselves. 

ELECTRIC SPARK

Electric sparks can generate amino acids and sugars from an atmosphere loaded with water, methane, ammonia and hydrogen, as was shown in the famous Urey and Miller esperiment reported in 1953, suggesting that lightning might have helped create the key building blocks of life on Earth in its early days. Over millions of years, larger and more complex molecules could form. Although research since then has revealed the early atmosphere of Earth was actually hydrogen-poor, scientists have suggested that volcanic clouds in the early atmosphere might have held methane, ammonia and hydrogen and been filled with lightning as well.

LISE MEITNER

Lise Meitner was born in Viena (1878) and die in Cambriedge (1968). She was phisycian who investigated the radioactivity and nuclear physics. Her group of scientis discovered the nuclear fusion. She was never consider as a co-author of it for being a woman, so, her college Otto Hahn was prized by the noble award. However, in 1966, her chemistry contributions were reconized and she was awarded Erico Fermi Award in USA.
This discovery is often consider like the best ever made by a woman. So, the 109º element of the periodic table was named meitnerio in her honor.
