today we walked in class and had a pop quiz. the quiz was pretty easy and I got to wrong because I mixed the x and y axis's up on what they are showing. the x axis is the wealth and y axis is the life expectancy and I wrote it backwards. I also learned about what the stages mean on the graph. in stage 1 the birth rate is high, the death rate is high, and the natural increase is stable. in stage 2 the birth rate is high, death rate is falling rapidly, and natural increase is very rapidly increasing. in stage 3 the birth rate is falling, death rate is falling slowly, and natural increase is stable or is increasing slowly. in stage 4 the birth rate is low, the death rate is low, and natural increase is stable or slowly increasing. in the last stage, stage 5 the birth rate is very low, death rate is low, and natural increase is stable or slowly decreasing. the countries go through these stages as their industrialization increases.
time
Today in class I learned and thought about many new things. In class we talked about time and how it is different all over the world and just across different states in the U.S. Also I learned what a circadian cycle is. It is the pattern of you waking up and going to sleep on a schedule based on the time it is. We also talked about Fleming who was wanted to have everyone have the same time all over the world in 1879. He wanted the clock to be at the center of the Earth. It would be a global 24hr clock and everyone would be on the same clock. Lastly around the 1900 all the time on Earth was in the form of standard time zone. No matter where you were you knew the zone and the time it was supposed to be. I learned a lot about time in class today.
