Overview of the Fungi Kingdom
The Fungi Kingdom consists of plant-like organisms with small nuclei such as yeast, bread mold and mushrooms. Many of the organisms in the Fungi Kingdom can cause disease, but some are helpful as they are used to make things like antibiotics and yeast. Most of the organisms in this kingdom are parasitic and receive nutrients from surfaces they live on. (02:52)
Climate Definition
Climate is defined as the long term patterns of temperature, humidity, wind, etc. in an area. People often confuse climate with weather.

How To Study For A Test

Making Writing Meaningful
When teachers introduce subjects that matter to middle school students or allow them more freedom to choose and develop topics, the task of writing gains new meaning and purpose. In this session, participants examine how five middle-level teachers help their students connect to writing and understand its capacity to transform their own lives and the world around them. (58:25)
How To Take Good Notes in Class
A 1:40 minute video that goes through tips on what notes to take in class. It includes understanding what the teacher wants, using personal notetaking, and rewriting the notes. Good for all ages, but moves too rapidly and so the teacher may want to review it twice.
Habitat Destruction

Population Growth
Population growth is loosely defined as the change in the amount of individuals of a specials in an area over time. To find the growth rate of a population, we take the number of individuals moving into an area and subtract the number of individuals moving out of an area by taking the birth rate, adding the immigration rate and subtracting the death rate and emigration rate. Two types of population growth are exponential and logistic growth.
Atmosphere
The atmosphere is the layer of air that surrounds the Earth and is comprised mainly of Nitrogen and Oxygen. The atmosphere also contains traces of gases like carbon dioxide, neon, helium, etc. There are 5 main layers of the atmosphere: the troposphere, the stratosphere, the mesosphere, the thermosphere and the exosphere.
