Controlling a Disease

       If I was the director of the health department of Singapore, and was trying to stop the spread of an extremely infectious disease, I would recommend for people who are infected to stay away from all family members and not to interact with others, unless they are also sick with the disease. For people who do not wish to get the disease, I would recommend to stay and home and refrain from going to places where many people go to.
      The trade-offs for my recommendations are staying away from others for not being infected or not catching the disease. Also, it would be trading off not getting infected for going to fun places like Universal Studios or Sentosa.

My Plate Lunch

This is the my plate lunch presentation with a list of all the healthy lunches we have.

Nutrition Goal

My nutrition goal is to drink at least 8 cups of water a day because I drink next to nothing and feel lethargic sometimes, so drinking water is key to my health.

Why Breakfast?

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day because as you have not eaten any food for 12 hours, your body needs nutrition and a good boost for the day. Breakfast is the only meal that you have to start off your day, so eating a healthy and full meal will make your mood, hand-eye co-ordination, and attentiveness improve. A good breakfast that everyone should have contains all the parts of the "My Plate", which are grains, fruits, vegetables, protein, and finally dairy. If you have a healthy breakfast, your day will improve, and you will have the energy to get through to lunch. Therefore, breakfast is the most important meal of the day.

The Most Accurate Way to Find pH

The most accurate way to measure pH is to use the pH meter. However, it was one of the methods that had some anomalies to the official pH for the substance. I chose it because if you get rid of the water on the probe, the probe would be very accurate, but I think the probe and substance was polluted from different classes and the water, so the pH with the probe was a little higher, never lower, than normal. The method that had the most difference was the universal indicator, and the one that had differences was the pH strips that also had a lot of anomalies.

The results I found on the internet were not all similar to the probe, but if the probes were washed, dried with a paper towel, and vacuumed, the results would have been much more accurate.

My Beats Per Minute :)

Our experiment was to find our heart rate and our resting pulse, and my conclusion is that I am quite fit and can slow my heart rate very quickly.
