Human body cells

Image
Hello, my blog viewers. Today we are going to learn about the tiny building blocks that make up us and other animals. Can you guess what it is? It’s cells! The cell is made out of different parts.  Let’s look at them now.  If you were shrunk to a  size that lets you fit through the cell and you found one, the first thing you would see is the cells outer shell. We call it the cell membrane. The cell membrane only lets specific things in. If you could somehow get in, you would see the different parts of the cell.  The different parts of the cell are called organelles. The organelles that you would see are the Nucleus, some Mitochondria, the Endoplasmic reticulum, some Lysosomes and the Golgi apparatus, but when you walk you will realise that there is one more part, and it is the most important. It’s the Cytoplasm! It provides a surface for the organelles to live on. Let’s learn more about the organelles.  The Nucleus decides and controls most of the functi...

5 things to do when you are bored

Image
All of us sometimes feel bored. You’re probably reading this blog because you’re bored. But... today I’m going to show you 5 things to do when you are bored. 1. Making art. Drawings are a great way to get rid of unnecessary stress. When you draw it let’s your mind relax and your imagination run wild. Colouring does the same and you can choose your colours and make your picture look unique. I also like drawing because nobody can stop you from choosing your choices. If you like you can write, edit, paint, fold,       make origami, cut, paste, stick and bend paper. 2. Making what you want to. Everybody has a hobby. For example I like making blogs, quizzes, projects and YouTube videos. I like making blogs because you can write what you want to. My blog wouldn’t even have grown this big without everyone who reads my blog. I make projects on PicCollage because anyone can access the images, backgrounds, fonts, controls and make as much projects as they want. I lik...

The story of chocolate part 2

Image
The Mayans were the first people to plant the beans of wild cocoa trees. This was the beginning of cocoa farming. In return for other goods, the Mayans traded cocoa beans to the Aztecs, whose lands were too dry to grow cocoa trees. Both the Mayans and the Aztecs used cocoa beans to make a drink known as chocolatl. The beans were dried and crushed, and then mixed with water. The Mayans drank chocolatl hot, whilst the Aztecs drank it cold. Often flavourings, such as chilli or vanilla, were added. Nevertheless, the taste must have been bitter. In fact, the word chocolatl is said to mean “bitter water”. Chocolatl was served on special occasions, such as rituals and royal feasts. The mixture was usually poured from a height into the drinking vessel to make a thick foam on the top. Both the Mayans and the Aztecs use cocoa beans as money. They also gave beans as special gifts, and as offerings for the gods. The land where cocoa trees grew became very valuable. Over several centuries...

The story of chocolate part 1

The story of chocolate begins in the rainforest, where cocoa trees grow. Pods grow on the cocoa trees and inside the pods are seeds called cocoa beans.  These cocoa beans are the magical ingredient in chocolate. Cocoa trees grow in the hot, damp shade under the leafy canopy of the tallest tree in the rainforest. There, the cocoa trees blossom with pink and white flowers. These flowers grow strait from the trunk and main branches. Tiny insects called midges carry pollen between the blossoms, fertilising them so cocoa pods will grow. Only a few of the hundreds of blossoms develop into cocoa pods. Like the blossoms, the pods grow straight from the trunk and branches of the tree. Many cocoa trees grow both blossoms and pods all year around.  In about 4 months, the cocoa pods grow to the size of melons. It takes another month before they are fully ripe. The colour of the ripe pods ranges from yellow to dark red. The pods are hard and must be split open to show the bean...

The breaking hour part 2

Exand looked for the deepest spot in the city. Eventually he found it. Then he started digging. In a few hours he was halfway through. He hadn’t used any of his explosives or his gunpowder. Soon later he was there. He used his final explosive and gunpowder to break trough the roof of hell. He was exhausted . He drank a gallon of water and he ate 14 sandwiches. Then Xtrullitior spotted him. Xtrullitior and Exand had a battle. Exand took his shovel out and threw it at Xtrullitior and Xtrullitior quickly made a force field and it bounced right back to Exand and he caught it. Exand did the exactly same thing again and again until Xtrullitior’s force field couldn’t work anymore. Then he went back to the hole and put some dirt and rocks in the shovel and he threw it at him. Xtrutillior was struggling to get out of Exand’s trap. A moment later he grabbed the magical wishmaker and told it 5 wishes. The wishes were. Get rid of Xtrullitior, Free Atlas, make everyone and everything back to norma...

The breaking hour part 1

On e dark, gloomy night in Paris there was a power surge. Everyone’s lights and electric things turned off. Everybody’s blood went cold. The government was curious to find out what happened. A LOUO (lot of unidentified objects) came falling out of the sky . Nearly the entire world thought that a new, and even worse doomsday was starting at Paris...and they were correct.  Soon after a zombie apocalypse started. Everyone got infected except a boy who was 9 years old and his name was Exand. His legs, arms and his hands were dripping with blood. He realised that the problems were never going to end unless...he could defeat the god of darkness Xtrullitior, free the god of light Atlas and send  Xtrullitior into the depths of the abyss once again. Exand regained his strength, recovered his wounds and drank plenty of water. He bought a ton of supplies and put it in a bag that was dusty just lying around on the rubbble. He even suited up with some clothes that were left. There was one...
