How Bees Make Honey?
A bee is a type of insect that is closely related to wasps ,and ants. Bees are well known for making honey,and beeswax. Honey is a sweet juice made from bees.
Bees start the process by visiting a flower. The first thing is that bees find rich nectar flowers in fields. They then suck out a surgery juice called nectar. The bee sucks the flower and then stores it in their special stomach called the honey stomach.
The bee flies back to the nest with the nectar in its sugar stomach. The stomach starts break the complex sugars down into simpler sugars. Once the bee reaches the nest it regurgitates (brings up) all the nectar onto the honeycomb.
The bee then fans all to make honey. They fan to get rid of the extra water in the nectar. As the water evaporates, the sugars thicken into honey. This honey stays in the nest ready to eat later.
In conclusion bees are essential to make honey. The bee is the one who turn the nectar into honey. Bees make honey by collecting nectar, digesting it,and finally regurgitating it. Without bees there would be no honey.

What is An Earthquake?
Earthquakes are very destructive. It also called a tremor.
An earthquake is when two earth plates shift over each other causing pressure to build up underneath the plates and when the plates beak it releases a strong force that makes the crust wobble and it might cause serious damage or make building falls.
An earthquake has lines that goes across the earth and that's why Japan has so much Tsunamis because the line is underneath Japan so then it will have more and more Tsunamis. Earthquake can also make other natural disaster like what I said just now in Japan, it can make Tsunamis and they make Tsunamis by having an underwater earthquake and it forms giant waves and it can make building rust at the bottom and make it fall but now Japan got a earthquake siren.
An earthquake siren writes down all the sound waves. If the pen senses a big sound wave it will write on a long piece of thin paper and the waves on the paper will be big.
An earthquake can cause disasters like forests falling down, buildings collapsing, and even houses. Earthquakes can also make volcanos erupt because of the sound waves. There are 2 different sound waves. P waves goes diagonally and S waves goes horizontally. Earthquakes can also cause cracks and injure people.
In conclusion earthquakes are quite common and can be dangerous.

How do we digest food and create energy?
Digestion allows your body to get the nutrients and energy it needs from the food you eat. A negative calorie food would be a food that required more food energy to be digested than it provided. The body extracts chemical energy from food using digestion. Once food is broken down, it provides energy for many essential body functions. 
First, the saliva in your mouth helps the food get mushy so its easy to swallow. Your teeth help break down the food and make them into small molecules. Once the food is all mushy and broken down, you can swallowed it down into the esophagus. The esophagus is an organ that is in the middle of your chest and connects your mouth to your stomach. It helps squeeze and push the food into the stomach.
The stomach is a sack that receives the food from the esophagus. The stomach makes digestive juices (acid and enzymes) that help to break our food into a thick liquid or paste. This thick liquid or paste is called chyme. Your stomach is a muscular organ that is able to move in order to mix the food with digestive juices. It doesn’t take a certain amount of time for the food to finish going down the digestive system, but meat does go down slower because its harder to break down.
The food then enters the small intestine The most important part of digestion is the small intestine. As the thick liquid food paste past through the small intestine the nutritions are adsorbed by millions of tiny finger-like objects called villi and sent into our bloodstream. Here is is used for energy by the body.
Undigested food enters the large intestine as a liquid paste. In the large intestine water is removed liquid paste turning what is left into a solid waste. Remember, liquid paste to solid waste. The solid waste then collects in the rectum at the end of the large intestine and will finally leave the body (preferably in the toilet) through an opening called the anus.

WHY SHOULD WE RECYCLE
People should recycle to save the planet, save our limited resources and save money. People needs to be more careful with what they consume and throw away and not harm the environment.
The first reason we should recycle is because it will help us to save the environment.We need to have oxygen for us to live. Rubbish pollutes the earth and kills animals. If we don't recycle they will have to put the trash in the landfill. Recycling makes people happy when they look at the window. If you recycle paper you are caring to the environment and making our world more beautiful.
We also need to recycle because we are running out of energy sources. We cannot keep using non renewable resources like wood for paper because when you burn wood and paper it breaks down and you can’t use it again. We need to find ways of reusing objects.
Another reason we need to recycle is to save money. You can save money by reusing packaging and refilling dispensers. Instead of buying lots of paper you can recycle paper.This saves money and also saves trees.
Recycling is very important. If we recycle the world is a better place.
