Blog #6 Which level of a food pyramid is the most important?
The most important level of a food pyramid is the meat group. The meat group is one of the major compacted food groups in the food guide pyramid. Many of the same nutrients found in meat can also be found in foods like eggs, dry beans, and nuts, such foods are typically placed in the same category as meats, as meat alterantives. Although meats provide energy and nutrients, they are often high in fat and cholesterol , and can be high in sodium. Simply trimming off fat can go a long way towards reducing this negative effect. The food guide pyramid suggests that adults eat 2-3 servings per day. One serving of meat is 4oz, about the size of a deck of cards.

Blog #5 There have been 5 major extinction events throughout history, are humans impacting the 6th? Why or why not?
If humans are actually impacting the 6th major extinction, there is a sure chance it is because we are putting hazardous materials in other animals' ways. Many trash are being eaten up, even attached to, by birds or sea animals in the sea and that is a very serious issue that can cause many innocent animal lives. Another is the slaughtering of the animals to produce the selling of meat, but it surely cant be done since it is surivival of the fittest.
