Welcome to Commander Hewins’s Biology/Anatomy & Physiology class blog.
Lots of important information that is designed to help you successfully complete the course is available here. For example, if you click on HOMEWORK/SYLLABI, you’ll move to a page with links to the syllabus and assigned homework for your course.
If you have any suggestions as to how to improve the blog, let me know either in class or by posting comments.
Click on page headings at the top of the screen to visit other pages — especially the one labeled POSTS.
This is AWESOME, Doug!
Thank you for the inspiration.

Science is important because it helps people figure out what type of materials they need to use to build planes. Also, it helps pilots simulate the pressure of a high speed flight so they can get used to it. It also helps simulate space travel to see if the space ship will work or not. One day, nuclear fusion could provide us with a clean, virtuously limitless, source of energy. It also helped discover a hole in the ozone layer. Lastly, it teaches you to think for yourself.
Very well put together site, thanks.
Will this be the best place to look for updates on our childrens grades and such or Jupiter Grades?
Good luck.
Thanks for checking out the site. Blog is good for checking out what is done in class each day (homework/syllabus) while Jupitergrades is best for following grades, missing work, etc.
i think it’s so cool how we can pick and choose the feature of a species we want to create or change. the National Geographic article about dogs was really interesting to me.
This article contained lots of laconic quotes from scientists who study dogs that contained great information. Like all the hundreds of different dog breeds all originated from the original handful of dogs! Also, the number of diseases that humans have in common with dogs are augmenting significantly! They’re trying to find ways to use the connections of our diseases to help cure human disformation. That would be an amazing “aha!” moment!
“Laconic” and “aha” in the same comment — cool!
I would love to create my own dog. It is amazing to me that you can morphologically change a dog at the same time as changing its genetic make-up. As with humans, be careful what you wish for, you may end up with a very evil-spirited dog. When you change morphology and genetics, you also change the personality.
