Data can be divided into two groups called quantitative and qualitative data
Quantitative data is numerical
Qualitative Data id descriptive data
Let’s look at examples of both
Examples of quantitative data would be
The number of pets, time of day, the temperature outside
Quantitative data can be graphed
If you count or measure, you are collecting quantitative data
There are two types of quantitative data, discrete and continuous
Discrete data is usually data you can count and continuous data is usually data you measure. I have a separate video on these two types of data.
Qualitative is descriptive or observations and uses words
For example, the color of a house, smell of a sock, texture of a shirt
Quantitative or Qualitative
Consider a cat
Quantitative Data would be the cat has 4 legs and weighs 10 pounds
Qualitative data would be the cat is yellow, and has soft fur
A bookshelf
Quantitative would be you have 50 books and is 150 centimeters tall.
Qualitative data would be it is multi-color and has a smooth texture

Kingdom of Protista
In this video, I review the kingdom Protista
A protist is a eukaryote that is not an animal, plant or fungi.
The kingdom protista is called the junk drawer kingdom because if a eukaryotic organism is not placed in the other kingdoms it is considered a protist.
There are three main types of protists, plantlike,animal-like and funguslike.
Some common examples of protists include amoeba , paramecium, kelp,algae,diatoms, euglena, and dinoflagellates.

25 Facts about the lobes of the brain
http://www.moomoomathblog.com/....2017/12/25-facts-abo
Cerebrum Top part of the brain and the cerebrum is separated into four lobes.
Temporal,parietal,occipital, and the frontal
Cerebellum also called the little brain
Controls coordination, balance, and helps us talk and walk
Temporal Lobe Helps us process sounds, in other words, helps us hear. Also helps some with balance.
Parietal Lobe It is called the “association lobe” It communicates with other lobes.The parietal lobe is where information such as taste, temperature, and touch are integrated, or processed.
Occipital lobe This lobe is responsible for processing your vision
Frontal lobe Is responsible for executive function. This includes memory, impulse control, your emotions, planning, and organization.
The brain stem controls the flow of messages between the brain and the rest of the body, and it also controls basic body functions such as breathing,, heart rate, and blood pressure,

Waves transfer energy without transporting matter. Waves are formed from vibrations and many travels through a medium. Light and radio waves do not need a medium.
Mechanical waves need a medium to pass through and I focus on two types, transverse waves, and longitudinal waves which are also called compressional waves.

The stomach is a major site of digestion. In order to digest food the stomach contains acid. This acid can be almost as strong as battery acid. The stomach also has mucus that protects the stomach from the strong acid.

How is this city like a cell?
They both need to store water and other materials.
Welcome to MooMooMath and Science and organelles and in this video, I will cover the main functions of a vacuole.
Vacuoles store water and waste and other materials in eukaryotic cells. Remember these are cells with membrane-bound organelles and a nucleus.
Vacuoles are storage sacks in plants and animal cells protists but they are not found in
bacterial cells in addition to storing water, vacuoles also store enzymes, waste, and even old damaged organelles.

What is a ribosome? A ribosome is an organelle found in plant, animal, and bacteria cells.
They are very small yet very important because they make proteins. Ribosomes use a process called translation to make proteins.
If you would like to learn more about proteins and their importance this video will help.

Learn about the Phosphorus cycle. Phosphorus is an essential nutrient for living organisms. It’s a building block of nucleic acids, like DNA, and phospholipids that form our cell membranes. It is also essential for plant growth.
In the natural world phosphorous is never encountered in its pure form, but only as phosphates, which consists of a phosphorus atom bonded to four oxygen atoms
Phosphate compounds are found in sedimentary rocks, and as the rocks weather—wear down over long time periods—the phosphorus they contain slowly leaches into surface water and soils. Volcanic ash and fertilizer can also be significant phosphate sources.

Levers are a type of simple machine that allows you to multiply your work. In this video, I illustrate a 1st class lever, a 2nd class lever, and a third-class lever.
The type of lever depends on the location of the effort, fulcrum, and load.
I also go over an easy method you can use to help memorize the types of levers.

Pathway of Air Flow
Our journey of oxygen into the lungs and back begins when the brain stem sends a message to the diaphragm which is a muscle under the lungs.
As the diaphragm moves down the lungs expand.
Air enters the nose and mouth and enters the nasal passages.
Your nose and nasal passages have tiny hairs called cilia and mucus that help filter dirt and pollen out of the air.
The air next moves to the pharynx which is located at (the back of the mouth)
From the pharynx, it moves to the larynx which is commonly called the voice box.
the voice box (makes sounds when air
passes over the vocal cords)
Epiglottis: the flap of connective tissue that covers
over the larynx during breathing
It stands open during breathing, allowing air into the larynx. During swallowing, it closes to prevent choking on food
From the larynx, air travels to the Trachea which is a rigid tube made of cartilage.
The trachea leads into two tubes called the left and right bronchus
These tubes continue to branch until you reach a tiny air sac called a alveoli
At the alveoli, oxygen diffuses into the capillaries and carbon dioxide diffuse into the alveoli and is exhaled.
This process is repeated over and over again.

Genotype and phenotypesYour genotype is your genetic code of your cells. This genetic code is responsible for many of your traits. The physical expression of your genotype is your phenotype.
Your genetic information is stored in your chromosomes on sections called genes.
A gene is a portion of DNA that codes for a trait.
The following picture illustrates this.
If you look at this drawing of a gene, the different sections are your genes.
In genetics you will encounter these three types of genotypes.
Homozygous dominant is written BB
Homozygous recessive bb
Heterozygous Bb
For each trait you get some information from mom and some from dad.
The different forms of the same trait are called alleles.
Take a look at the different hair texture. These different forms are alleles. It is still hair, just different forms.
A dominant allele will cover up or mask a recessive allele.
You will only get a recessive allele if both alleles are recessive.
Your phenotype is the actual expression of the genotype.
For example this dog has a round nose, this cat has black hair. These are physical expression of the genetic code.

Freshwater biomes are ecosystems take contain water with a low salinity.
In this video, I cover rivers and streams, lakes and ponds, and wetlands.
Rivers are bodies of water that are moving. They begin at the headwater and usually dump. into a larger body of water.
Lakes and ponds can be small or very large bodies of water.
Wetlands include a marsh,swamp, bog or fen.

The Phosphorus Cycle is essential for life on Earth. It is considered a biogeochemical cycle.
In the video, I cover the phosphorus cycle steps.
Phosphorus is not found in the atmosphere but is found in rocks and is released by weathering.
Plants and animals absorb the phosphorus that is washed into the soil.
Eventually, the phosphorus is washed into sediment that is compressed into rock.
