Appendectomy

For the first unit in my STEAM course Cure at GCE, we studied cells and how surgeries affect the body. A large portion of our research in the internal and external focused around cell theory and how hospitals and doctors preform surgeries. For this Action Project, we were asked to pick any kind of surgery we want and preform research on the body systems, organs, tissues and cells affected. I chose an Appendectomy (removal of the appendix) because I've known people who have had it preformed. My favorite part of this project was getting used to Prezi since I had never used it before. One thing I struggled with was finding in depth information about the appendix.
