Me: Okay. I really need to get this biology essay done, because it’s due tomorrow, needs a lot of research, and I haven’t started.
Also me: I wrote a (completely unnecessary, unassigned) 3 page essay on plausible diagnoses for Willy Loman in Death of a Salesman.
We started our Systems Neuroscience course today, which means an average of forty pages of reading every night :(
Real glad the electoral college doesn’t exist in plant cells. The organelles would have little elections that were always farces because the central vacuole can take up anywhere from 30-90% of the cell.
Quarantine blog day 248
What is it like
To live life in the fast lane
To live for just a moment
And then be gone
In the blink of an eye?
In spring when
The days lengthen
And the warmth herald
The coming of summer
Lakes and rivers become active
With mayflies.
Lacey wings and shiny body
But no way to feed
They have only hours to complete
Their entire lives.
Millions dart and dance
Like smoke above the water
In a flurry of activity
Completing the cycle
Despite all stacked against them-
Fish
Birds
And their dwindling energy reserves.
At dawn, the multitudes rise
To make the most
Of their limited time
Come dusk
Eggs laid
Their task complete
They die.
Calm once more
Upon the water
Until a year passes
And a new generation arises
To complete their short lives
Within the confines
Of a single day.
Eruptions lasting hundreds of years at a time have carved out ridges along the edge of the volcano that are nearly 10 km high (6 mi) - themselves higher than Mt. Everest. Olympus Mons is so large, that the entire chain of the Hawaiian islands (Kauai to Hawaii) would fit inside.
Lava flows on Mars are generally longer, due to high rates of eruption as well as a low surface gravity. This creates much larger volcanic structures on Mars than on Earth. Not only that, during volcanoes on Earth, the plates move around them which distributes the lava more evenly, and as one volcano becomes active, another becomes extinct. On Mars however, eruptions do not have this plate movement and instead, lava just piles up on one spot getting larger and larger.
Estudiando sobre glucólisis, membrana celular y tipos de transportes. Ha sido un día muy productivo pero siento que tomar notas me absorbe demasiado tiempo. Ya casi tacho todos mis pendientes del día!
Biology teacher forgot that “sketch” and “carefully” do NOT go in the same sentence.
