respond to stimuli, and having the ability to grow. Most cells obtain energy through a complex series of biochemical reactions termed metabolism. Cells metabolize organic compounds (proteins, fats, and carbohydrates) in food and capture the energy stored in chemical bonds by forming high-energy bonds in adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Most microbes are heterotrophs, which require an organic source of energy. Some microbes and plants, the autotrophs, do not need to extract energy from organic

foods. Even though there is a large controversy over GMOs not many people know what and how dangerous GMO’s are. GMO’s are organisms produced from crops whose genetic makeup has been altered through a process called recombinant DNA, or gene splicing, to give the crop a desirable trait (Bren). Genetic engineering is also defined as the copying of a gene from one plant or animal and adding it to another plant or animal. Monsanto is one of the large producers of GMO seeds. Monsanto offers farmers

Have you ever wondered how long it would take to heat up a hot dog in a solar oven? Well this solar oven project is the way to see which type of aluminum foil will heat up the hot dogs the fastest. According to research the thicker that the aluminum foil is the faster the hot dog will heat up, if the conditions are spot on. If the conditions are not spot on then the hot dogs will not be able to heat up fast enough. In this project you will need to look at how to assemble it, the heat and light
