Physics Model Questions

Purpose

• Explore the significance of the obesity problem.

Materials

· Student generated model

· Module model

· Research materials

Procedure

· Divide into groups as directed by your teacher.

· Try several different situations with your model and with the Module model.

· Write down the results for each.

· Discuss how cardiovascular disease and diabetes might be negatively affected by obesity.

Conclusion
