9V Critical Thinking to Learn Words


When I hear critical thinking I think of thinking by picking out every part of any argument or topic. The actual definition of critical thinking is analyzing, applying, synthesizing, and evaluating any concept or argument. By doing this thinking you become more informative with the concept you are talking about or learning about and you become a better thinker in making life decisions in the future as well.

Two new words that I have learned in my microbiology class this week are tinctures and ionizing. Tinctures are solutions in an aqueous alcohol. An example of this is Iodine. Ionizing is when it causes water to release OH and damage the DNA. Examples of this are x-rays and electron beams. 
Every day we learn something new and we never know what it is going to be so it's a nice surprise!
