Inquiry+Term+1

Inquiry: The Brain __**Inquiry Teacher Comment**__ Miss Taylor//**
 * 18 April 2008**
 * //Logan, you are developing some good research skills this term and you are beginning to be able to write your notes in bullet points and then into a sentence to show your understanding. It is very helpful including a link below each answer as your reference. Next term and in future research assignments, an aim for you should be to answer all of your questions in your own words and in more depth to show that you understand the topic.//** **//With your laptop you could also link into video and images from the internet to illustrate your answers. Perhaps you could keep a log of your science fair progress? :)

I am going to investigate: Brain Hemorrhages

RESEARCH QUESTIONS Comprehension: 1. What is a brain hemorrhage? 2. How do brain hemorrhages occur? 3. how many people have a subarachnoid hemorrhage in the world a year?

Synthesis: How can a brain hemorrhage be fixed or treated?

NOTE TAKING Question 1: What is a brain hemorrhage? A brain hemorrhage is when blood flows in to the subarachnoid space quickly and unexpectedly
 * when blood flows into subarachnoid space surrounding brain
 * bleeding may happen quickly and unexpectedly

Question 1: What is a brain hemorrhage? A brain hemorrhage is when blood flows in to the subarachnoid space quickly and unexpectedly
 * when blood flows into subarachnoid space surrounding brain
 * bleeding may happen quickly and unexpectedly

Question 2: How do brain hemorrhages occur?
 * brain hemorrhages occur from a break in the wall of the blood vessel and the blood leaks out of the blood vessel and enters where tissues and brain cells live killing these tissues and brain cells.

Question 3. how many people have a subarachnoid hemorrhage in the world a year?

2145 people have a subarachnoid hemorrhage

Synthesis:How can a brain hemorrhage be fixed or treated? found on http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000701.htm a brain hemorrhage can be treated by getting rid of blood & relieve brain pressure and Treatment for bad alert may be needed
 * surgery to get rid of blood & relieve brain pressure
 * Treatment for coma or bad alertness may be needed
 * draining tube may be put into the brain to get rid of pressure
 * don't bend over, strain yourself or suddenly change position
