Values/Attitude: observe the environment keenly
III. Subject Matter Human Breathing System
IV. References Learner's Module pages 3-5, Teacher's guide pages 5-6, MELC for Science 9
V. Procedure
A. Readings
The air we breathe goes through the nose, nasal passages, and then through trachea or windpipe,
which separates into two branches, called the bronchial tubes or bronchi, one entering each lung. The
bronchi subdivide many times inside the lungs, analogous to the branching pattern of grapes, finally
becoming hairlike tubes called bronchioles. In the last part of the terminal bronchioles are tiny bubble-
like bunch of structures called alveoli or airsacs.

II. Objective/s
Knowledge:
describe how the movement of the diaphragm helps the air go in and out of the lungs
Skills: assemble a model of chest cavity
Values/Attitude: foster cleanliness and timeliness in completing the task
III. Subject Matter Human Breathing System-Mechanism and activities of the lungs and diaphragm
V. Procedure
A. Readings
Oxygen is necessary for life to exist. Without it, the cells in the body would not be able to release the
energy in food for power, and they would die within minutes. When you breathe in or inhale, the
diaphragm muscle contracts. Inhaling moves the diaphragm down and expands the chest cavity.
Simultaneously, the ribs move up and increase the size of the chest cavity. There is now more space and
less air pressure inside the lungs. Air pushes in from the outside where there is higher air pressure. It
pushes into the lungs where there is lower air pressure. It pushes into the lungs where their is lower air
pressure. When you breathe out or exhale, the diaprhagm muscle relaxes. The diaphragm and ribs
return to their original place. The chest cavity returns to its original size. There is now less space and
greater air pressure inside the lungs. It pushes the air outside where there is lower air pressure.

II. Objective/s
Knowledge:
describe blood flow and gas exchange within the heart, circulatory system and lungs
Skills:
illustrate the mechanism of how the respiratory and ciculatory systems work together
Values/Attitude: exhibit patience and accuracy in illustrating the bloodflow
III. Subject Matter Mechanism of how the Respiratory and Circulatory system work
V. Procedure
A. Readings
Air enters your lungs and then into the left part of your heart. It is then driven by your heart into the
bloodstream, all the way through your body. The heart pumps blood, which transports essential
nutrients, oxygen and other chemicals to every cell in the body. Once it reaches the cells, oxygen
processes the nutrients to release energy. Carbon dioxide is given off during this process. The blood
delivers carbon dioxide into the right portion of your heart from which it is pumped to the lungs. Carbon
dioxide leaves your body through the lungs when you exhale.

II. Objective/s
Knowledge:
describe the different types of circulation
Skills: diagram the parts and function of the circualtory system by completing a graphic
organizer
Values/Attitude: organize ideas to complete task
III. Subject Matter Circulatory System - Parts, Function and Types of Circulation
V. Procedure
A. Readings
The circulatory system is the life support structure that nourishes your cells with nutrients from the food
you eat and oxygen from the air you breathe. It can be compared to a complex arrangement of highways,
avenues and lanes connecting all the cells together into a neighborhood. Sequentially, the community of
cells sustains the body to stay alive. Another name for circulatory system is the cardiovascular system. It
functions with other body systems to deliver different materials in the body. It circulates vital elements
such as oxygen and nutrients. At the same time, it also transports wastes away from the body. The
following are the three major parts of the circulatory system, with their roles. Heart pumps the blood
throughout the body. Blood carries the materials thorughout the body. Blood vessel carries the blood
thoughout the body. There are three types of blood vessels namely; arteries which carry oxygenated
blood away from the heart to the cells, tissues and organs of the body, veins which carry deoxygenated
blood to the heart and lastly the capillaries considered as the smallest blood vessel in the body
connecting the smallest arteries to the smallest veins where actual actual exchange of gases and
nutrients take place. There are three types of circulation. Pumonary circulation is the movement of blood
from the heart, to the lungs, and back to the heart. Coronary circulation is the movement of blood
through the tissues of the heart. Systemic circulation is the movement of blood from the heart to the rest
of the body, excluding the lungs.
Exercise 1.
Directions: Complete the table below regarding the types of circulation.

Values/Attitude: follow procedures properly
III. Subject Matter Circulatory System - Heart
V. Procedure
A. Readings
The heart is a hollow muscular organ, about the size of your fist, which is located in the center of your
chest between the lungs. It is a double pump that pumps on the left and right sides. Every side is divided
into two chambers, the atrium and the ventricle, each of which has left and right portion, totaling to four
chambers altogether. The top chamber is the atrium (plural: atria). The bottom chamber is called the
ventricle. The valve acts as a one-way door, allowing blood to flow either forward into the next chamber,
or out of the heart. All of the muscle tissues of the heart do not contract at the same time. Different parts
of the heart contract at different times. When the top portion contracts, the bottom part relaxes. When
the bottom contracts, the top relaxes. When a chamber contracts, it becomes smaller and the blood
inside gets squeezed or pumped out.

systems
II. Objective/s
Knowledge: explain the use of different tome intervals to measure heart rate
Skills: measure the pulse (heart rate) after several different activities
Values/Attitude: demonstrate appreciation on the importance of exercise
III. Subject Matter Pulse (Heart Rate)
IV. References Learner's Module pages 17-18, Teacher's guide pages 11, MELC for Science 9
V. Procedure
A. Readings
Each time your heart beats, it delivers oxygen-rich blood to your body, which allows it to function
properly. Your heart rate or pulse is the number of times your heart beats in a minute (BPM or beats per
minute). Shorter time intervals may be used in taking pulse as long as it comes to 60 seconds upon
multiplying with a factor. When you are resting, your heart rate slows down, because your body does not
need as much blood as it does when you exercise.
Exercise 1. The Rhythm of My Heart (Do not perform if you have serious medical condition)
Directions: Follow the procedures properly to achieve accurate results.
Materials: stopwatch/timer data logbook
Procedure: 1. Sit quietly for a few minutes before beginning the activity.
2. When you are ready, place your first two fingers either on your neck or on the
inside of your wrist and locate your pulse.
3. Once you find your pulse, start the watch, and for 60 seconds, count the
number of beats you feel. That is your pulse.
4. Try the experiment again, but this time count for only 30 seconds. When you
are done, multiply your count by two. Compare your pulses.
5. Repeat by counting for 15 seconds and multiplying your count by four, then
counting for 10 seconds and multiplying by six, and so on.
6. Once you have determined your resting pulse, go to a place where you can
exercise vigorously for at least one minute. Exercise of this sort might include
a fast jog, running stairs, skipping rope, or doing push-ups. When you are done,
you should be breathing hard.
7. Choose the length of the test you wish to perform and find your pulse again.
8. Compare your resting pulse with your pulse after exercise.
9. After the activity, record your observations on the table below.

Values/Attitude: demonstrate awareness on the negative effects of cigarette smoking
III. Subject Matter Cigarette Smoking is Dangerous to your Health
IV. References Learner's Module pages 21, Teacher's guide pages 13, MELC for Science 9
V. Procedure
A. Readings
Cigarette smoking harms nearly every organ in the body, causing many ilnesses and affecting health in
general. The negative effects of smoking on the circulatory system include increased heart rate and blood
pressure, coronary heart disease, arteriosclerosis, and vascular diseases. Areteriosclerosis is the
thickening and hardening of the walls of the arteries, occurring typically in old age. Increased heart rate
wherein the heart is beating faster than normal. COronary disease a disease in which a waxy substance
called plaque builds up inside the coronary arteries. Vascular disease a class of diseases of the blood
vessels – the arteries and veins of the circulatory system of the body. The respiratory diseases caused by
smoking are chronic bronchitis, emphysema, asthma, cough, colds, tuberculosis, lung cancer, and other
respiratory infections. Chronic bronchitischaracterized by the inflamation of the bronchial tubes
producing a lot of mucus. Emphysema is a condition in which the air sacs of the lungs are damaged and
enlarged, causing breathlessness. Asthma is a respiratory condition marked by spasms in the bronchi of
the lungs, causing difficulty in breathing. Cough is a rapid expulsion of air from the lungs, typically in order
to clear the lung airways of fluids, mucus, or other material. Colds is a common viral infection in which the
mucous membrane of the nose and throat becomes inflamed, typically causing running at the nose,
sneezing, a sore throat. Tuberculosis is an infectious disease that may affect almost any tissue of the
body, especially the lungs, caused by the organism Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and characterized by
tubercles. Lung cancer is also known as lung carcinoma,and a malignant lung tumor characterized by
uncontrolled cell growth in tissues of the lung.
