Ew… That was Gross!
Ever ask the questions no one else wants to ask? Why do we have eye gunk
when we wake up in the morning? Why do we have different colored eyes if they don’t
change how we see? What’s the deal with burping? The body is an amazing
creation and there are lots of things our bodies do that we never understand.
Wondering around the internet you can find many explanations for these
unanswered questions.
Assignment:
Your mission is to research at least two different bodily functions
listed on this site. Please do not wonder onto any other sites for information.
Get all the details you can about your favorite functions and write an essay
describing the purpose and process of your choices. Society may think some of
these are gross and not suitable for public discussion, but in science class we
celebrate the human body in all it’s glory!
