Solar Power : The energy of the sun.
1. What are solar panels used for ?
Solar power is arguably the cleanest, most reliable form of renewable energy available, and it can be used in several forms to help power your home or business. Solar-powered photo voltaic (PV) panels convert the sun's rays into electricity by exciting electrons in silicon cells using the photons of light from the sun.
2. How is it possible to use solar energy from solar panels at night ?
If power is needed at night or on those winter days, energy can be conserved by utilizing a utility grid or a battery bank. The utility grid can be used simultaneously with solar power and the battery bank can convert solar energy into electricity throughout the day to be stored for later use.
3. What are solar panels made of ?
Solar cells can be classified into first, second and third generation cells. The first generation cells—also called conventional, traditional or wafer-based cells—are made of crystalline silicon, the commercially predominant PV technology, that includes materials such as poly silicon and mono crystalline silicon.
4. What is solar thermal energy ?
Solar thermal energy is a form of energy and a technology for harnessing solar energy to generate thermal energy or electrical energy for use in industry, and in the residential and commercial sectors.

My Hauora and Well-Being
I have learnt some emotions that people go through in everyday life
I enjoyed doing the emojis in my post because you got to look at all the colorful emojis and what faces people make through the day .I was successful because I finished all this in only I think 3 days being in health , I found all the slides hard because it was a lot of writing , I got by the challenge by working and working on it till it was finished, I used my chrome and some websites for information and worked on my chrome to finish my projected.Now that I know this maybe I can help people in everyday life

Title:Osmosis
a process by which molecules of a solvent tend to
pass through a semipermeable membrane from a
less concentrated solution into a more concentrated
one.
pass through a semipermeable membrane from a
less concentrated solution into a more concentrated
one.
the process of gradual or unconscious assimilation
of ideas, knowledge,Physical Chemistry,
Cell Biology.The tendency of a fluid, usually water,
to pass through a semipermeable membrane into a
solution where the solvent concentration is higher,
thus equalizing the concentrations of materials on
either side of the membrane.The diffusion of fluids
through membranes or porous partitions.Compare
end osmosis, ex osmosis.

Reflection
My reflection of science microscope
This term science has been fun
Because we did the onion under
the microscope and saw inside
the onion which was cool we
also put color on a piece of
onion and saw it with color
under the microscope which
was awesome.
