Dwayne’s Study Zombies

Dudes. Dudes! DOODZ!!! Totally. I love this weird GED science stuff. I read this article, it’s really kewl. So, no one can live in space, right? Like, if you go out without your space helmet, your head will explode or something. Not to mention you can’t breathe. There’s no air or nuthin. So, it’s impossible to live in space, right? RIGHT?!?! WRONG!!1!11! Okay, here’s the science stuff… (more…)

Ready for GED science? Are you? ARE YOU?!?! How about testing out your GED skills. So, last time you read about how osmosis is used to make MUMMIES!!! Basically, you put salt on the outside of a dead Egyptian pharaoh, and the salt sucks out the water. Why’s that? Well, there’s water inside all our cells, and the outside of cells is a MEMBRANE… and water can go in and out of it. So, what happens is, water tends to go to whichever side has the most of something dissolved in water. So, you pour a bunch of dry salt (something that dissolves) on the outside of the mummy…and the water says, “Hey! That salt doesn’t have any water dissolved in it. But we’ve got a lot of water in this cell here. We better balance it out by sending more water out into that salt!!!” And the water all goes out to dissolve with the salt. Ugh! A dried-out mummy is the result.

So, here’s a question that was on Yahoo answers. With everything you know, you can solve this question, easy.

“How does osmosis explain the fact that a watery syrup forms when you put sugar on strawberries?”

You’re using a GED skill called application. You’re applying what you know to a different problem. Can you solve it? CAN YOU? Click here to see the answer: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080219200533AARCjin&show=7

And keep studying that science for your GED!

Okay. I was reading about this really kewl GED science thing… OSMOSIS! Doesn’t it sound like one of them Egyptian Pharoah guys… yeah, All behold the Great Pharoah Osmosis! Hail Osmosis! Maybe that’s not exactly what osmosis is… but speaking of Egypt, did you know that the Egyptians used a kind of salt called Natron to dry out dead bodies and make them into MUMMIES!?!? And guess what? That’s some GED science…OSMOSIS! (more…)

Want to learn some GED science, and find out how the government’s gonna invade your privacy in the future? One single strand of hair… and THEY can tell where you were all last year? Can they tell what planet I was abducted to, that’s what I wanna know! Yeah, it’s true, a new science study can figure out where you were by lookin’ at your hair. (more…)
