Answer 1

Role of the Writer: Who are you as the writer? A movie star? The President? A plant?
Audience: To whom are you writing? A senator? Yourself? A company?
Format: In what format are you writing? A diary entry? A newspaper? A love letter?
Topic: What are you writing about?

For this assignment, students will assume the role of a major body organ (heart, lungs, liver, brain, stomach, kidneys, skin, etc...). The organ's audience is the human body. The format is a persuasive letter on why the organ you chose is the most important to the human body.

Role of the Writer: major body organ
Audience: human body
Format: persuasive letter
Topic: why it's the most important organ

Here is a sample persuasive letter:

Dear Human Body,

I am the liver speaking, and I want to tell you that I'm the most important body part. I'd love to tell you why with these reasons: I can grow back; second, I work really hard to keep you clean; lastly, I do more than 500 things that are vital for your health!

The first reason I am most important is if part of me or all of me gets sick or removed, I'll grow back! I'll grow back like a worm's head or a crab's leg.

The next reason I am awesome is because I am like a giant chemical factory working to keep you clean. For example, I create bile to help take care of bad pollutants in your blood.

The last reason why I rock and why I'm the most important body part is I do a lot to keep you clean. I kill germs, and I also keep pollution from hurting you. I remove all the dangerous chemicals and germs from your blood stream.

I am THE most important and most awesome part of you because of all these reasons. Anyway, I bet the other body parts can't grow back.

The Best Body Part Ever,
The liver

Answer 39

Answer 40

Great!

Answer 41

I foundthis
The kidneys are a pair of organs located in the back of the abdomen. Each kidney is about 4 or 5 inches long -- about the size of a fist.
The kidneys' function are to filter the blood. All the blood in our bodies passes through the kidneys several times a day. The kidneys remove wastes, control the body's fluid balance, and regulate the balance of electrolytes. As the kidneys filter blood, they create urine, which collects in the kidneys' pelvis -- funnel-shaped structures that drain down tubes called ureters to the bladder.
Each kidney contains around a million units called nephrons, each of which is a microscopic filter for blood. It's possible to lose as much as 90% of kidney function without experiencing any symptoms or problems.

Answer 42

It is pretty important

Answer 43

Okay, so right there "The kidneys' function are to filter the blood" that tells you how important it really is.

My function is to filter the blood. All the blood in the human body passes through me several times a day. I remove wastes, control the body's fluid balance, and regulate the balance of electrolytes. As I filter blood, I create urine, which collects in my pelvis -- funnel-shaped structures that drain down tubes called ureters to the bladder.

From the research you did, collect more information. Not about blood filtering but about something else.

"Chronic kidney disease (CKD), also known as chronic renal disease (CRD), is a progressive loss in renal function over a period of months or years. The symptoms of worsening kidney function are non-specific, and might include feeling generally unwell and experiencing a reduced appetite." This is what happens to me sometimes.
