Right now, I am taking a class called Cure. In this class, we have discussed many things such as different drug types such as over-the-counter and prescription. We also have discussed different types of math such as graphing parabolas, ellipses, circles, and hyperbolas. My favorite part of this class had been learning about a berry called the miracle berry which essentially blocks your sour receptors and makes sour foods sweet. The way the miracle beery works is that it blocks the sour receptors in your tongue by essentially jamming them so that the sour molecule cant fit into the receptor. The way this happens is that the blockers find open receptors and they are essentially a key that blocks the entrance to the receptor. So you can think of the receptor as the lock and the medicament as the key. This was an eye-opening experience because it really demonstrated the content of the class. The lock and key idea relates to many other drugs and is the reason they work the way they do. In this class, we have taken a few field experiences such as the miracle berry demonstration. For this action project, we needed to choose a disease or symptom so that we could talk about different treatment options such as over the counter, prescription or other types of cures. Below is my action project, I hope you enjoy!
