  12. The harmful effects of smoking during pregnancy
    A lot of stupid people smoke while they’re pregnant. A lot of bad things can happen to the baby if you smoke while you are pregnant. This can cause the baby to have asthma and be sick all the time. It can also cause the baby’s weight to be low. It can also cause the baby to have a lot of problems after it is born. It’s sad because when you smoke, it goes right to the baby and it will be inside the baby’s body. I think it could probably higher the risk of the baby to smoke also. I want to know more about this.

  25. For my research project I am going to research hemp. I chose hemp because I feel hemp should be a resource that many people should start thinking about using. I think many people should start using this as a resource because the hemp plant can create many good resources such as HEMP, PAPER, WOOD, FIBER, STRING,OIL. The hemp plant also has a rapid rate of photosynthesis which is great for the ozone layer and getting rid of pollution.

  77. For my research project I am going to research hemp. I chose hemp because I feel hemp should be a resource that many people should start thinking about using. I think many people should start using this as a resource because the hemp plant can create many good resources such as HEMP, PAPER, WOOD, FIBER, STRING,OIL. The hemp plant also has a rapid rate of photosynthesis which is great for the ozone layer and getting rid of pollution.
