2.1.1 The Power of Communication
In this activity, we partnered up to discover how lack of specific communication can affect the outcome of a situation. One partner was to build a figure and give simple, nonspecific instructions on how the other person can build it without looking. From the pictures, it is clear that is was very difficult to copy with lack of communication.

2.1.3 Map-A-Brain
In this activity, we mapped a brain on a swim cap, labeling the different lobes, and then used this knowledge to dissect a sheep brain.

2.2.1 The Neuron
In this activity, we researched the three types of neurons and created a poster detailing each. Also in this activity, we created a flow chart (in lab notebook) from the reaction of seeing a bug to the act of ridding of it.

2.3.2 Hormones Gone Wild
In this activity, we were given a patient, Lincoln Grant, and a list of symptoms that he was experiencing. We were given the task of diagnosing him with a endocrine related illness. After much research and tests, we were able to diagnose Mr. Grant with a pituitary tumor.

2.4.1 Exploring the Anatomy of the Eye
In this activity, we were given the task of dissecting a cow eye and observing the different parts that make up the eye. The cow eye is actually very similar to the human eye.

2.4.2 Visual Perception
In this activity, we went through 10 different stations to test different parts of our eyes. Examples include finding our blind spots, testing for astigmatisms, 20/? vision, and depth perception. The results can be found below.
