GMO
GMO is short for Genetically Modified Organisms, this is when scientists takes the genes or DNA of a living organism and altering it and putting it in to another living organism it is also like cross-breeding. This is a controversial issue because we don`t know the affects when we consume the food, the modified food can be unsafe. On the other hand GMO`s can help food grow and the food can withstand any season. There have been over 81 GM foods that have been approved in Canada for including: canola, corn, potatoes, and more.

Diabetes
Diabetes is a common disease that affects your body and how it uses glucose. There are 2 types of diabetes, type 1 and type 2. Type 1 is when you were born with and your body can`t make any insulin, type 2 is when your body can make insulin but it doesnt make enough, type 2 only comes along if you have an unhealthy lifestyle. You need insulin to allow the glucose to go into your cells, if the glucose isn`t in the cells the glucose will still in your bloodstream creating a high level of sugar.

Cells
Hey there in class we are learning about cell so today i will talk about the different terms with cells, enjoy! :)
Diffusion is when particles move apart from each other going from high concentration to low concentration. The particles keep on spreading until the particles have to where to going. There is two different transport they are active and passive, active is when you have to help the particles more and passive is when you don't need to do anything and the particle will spread themselves.
Osmosis is like diffusion but with water. It is like spilling a drink on the floor the drink spreads until it hits something solid or the particles are too small to move.
There are 3 different permeability, semi-permeable, permeable, and non-permeable. semi-permeable is when the particles and cell flow through your body and some of the particles and cell flow through here an example :
The next one is permeable its like semi-permeable but all the particles and cell flow through.
Now last but not least non-permeable that is when nothing flows through and when it rains the rain doesn't leak through your roof unless there is a leak in your roof.
