LESSON 1: Man, Animals, and Ecosystem

Activity
Let’s Review!

A food chain is an order that shows the flow of energy from one organism to the other.
In a community which has producers, consumers, and decomposers, the energy flows
in a specific pathway. Energy is not created or destroyed. But it flows from one level to
the other, through different organisms. A network of food chains existing together in an
ecosystem is known as food web and generally a graphical representation what-eats-
what in an ecological community. Create a food web by connecting arrows among the
organisms in the picture below.
Analysis

Let’s Do the Math!

▪ List down each of the food chain you have created.


 PLANTS CATTLE  HUMAN  decomposer
 PLANTS SHEEP HUMAN  decomposer
 PLANTS  HORSE HUMAN decomposer
 PLANTS  TOAD  INSECT  BIRD  SNAKE  HUMAN  decomposer
 PLANTS  INSECT  BIRD  SNAKE  HUMAN  decomposer
 PLANTS  GRASSHOPPER  TOAD  HUMAN  decomposer
 ATMOSPHERE  PLANTS
 PLANTS  GRASSHOPPER  WEASEL  decomposer
 PLANTS  MOUSE  WEASEL  decomposer
 PLANTS  GRASSHOPPER  MOUSE SNAKE  decomposer
▪ Group the organisms into producers and consumers.
Producers Consumers
Plants Human
Insects Bird
Lizard Snake
Mouse

▪ Do you agree that energy is neither created nor destroyed along


the food chain? Support your answer?
o I disagree, why? Because the energy cannot be destroyed and created rather it
can only change forms.

Application

Watch the video on “The Environmental Impact of Livestock” by following the link
https://youtu.be/VGJduwENNw4. Make a reaction paper on how you can mitigate the
impact of livestock farming on the environment.

In order for us to mitigate the impact of livestock farming on our environment, we


need to reduce water use, reduced depletion or injury to water supplies through
improving waste management and feed-crop fertilization practices, and higher
replenishment of water resources. Managed the systems such as biological control and
manure management. Use the energy more efficiently because it generates
greenhouse gas emission. Conserve our water because the animals need it especially
our plants need it. Do not pollute the water. Without fresh waters, plants will be in
danger. We can be responsible enough in using the reduce, reuse and recycle system.
The forest help our environment lower the risk of sudden climate change and tone down
the possible impacts of natural disaster. The livestock farming produces huge carbon
and is very alarming in global warming which we must stop it. Government must take
action of it because it will be a big impact to our environment.

PLUS MINUS INTERESTING


Analysis

After filling up the PMI Table, consider answering the following


questions:

✓ What makes dairy cows in Israel one of the best producers of milk in the world?
o Because they treat the cows the better. They measure the quality of the milk’s
cow through the use of technologies and that makes the Israel one of the best
producers of milk in the world. Dairy farmers in Israel use high-tech procedures
and a lot of imported feed to provide milk in country that is two-thirds desert and
has little grazing pasture.
✓ Is the adaption of the technology good for the cows? How?
o Yes, the technology enhanced the growth of dairy cow in a right and healthy
manner. It helps boosting of milk production and help farmers to work precisely.
✓ Will it benefit the environment? Why?
o In my opinion, no, because dairy cows and their dung contributed to climate
change by emitting greenhouse gases. Poor manure and fertilizer management
can harm local water resources. Furthermore, unsustainable dairy farming and
feed production can result in the loss of ecologically significant places such as
grassland, wetlands, and forest.
✓ Will the adaption of the innovative technology of Israel, guarantee success of the
dairy enterprise in the Philippines?
o Yes, because if there is technology like Israel in the Philippines, then I can say
that it will be a success of our country too. Both countries are strengthen the

Lesson 1. The Integumentary System

Activity
Match the Horse!

Let see if you can match the color of the horse with the pictures shown below. Write the
letter that corresponds to your answer inside the box.
a. Palomino b. Bay c. Appaloosa d. Dapple gray

 B. Bay

 C. Appaloosa

 A. Palomino

 D. Dapple Gray

Analysis
▪ What makes the animal differ in their skin coloring?
 The animals makes differ in their skin coloring through their Melanin pigment.

▪ What do you think is the importance of skin color and markings in determining the
identity of the animal?
 The patterns on the bodies of animals match their surroundings, such as grass
and vegetation. These make it difficult for predators to spot animals. It simplifies
record keeping for livestock farmers and animal breeders,. It simplifies the care
of sick or inefficient animals. It makes it simple for breeder to choose
replacement stock for the following breeder season. Animal identification via
marking is a method of identifying and tracking specific animals.

Lesson 2. The Skeletal


System

Activity
Complete the bone word puzzle by filling in the boxes with letters forming the name of
the bones described by the clues listed below. Have fun and will see if you can
complete the puzzle!
Across
1. Fingerbone
4. Wishbone
6. Jawbone
7. Protect the thorax
Down
1. Kneecap
2. Protects the brain
3. Clavicle
5. Upper arm

Analysis
1. What do you think is the most important bone in your body and what
makes it so significant?
 For me, it’s the skull because it is the most vital component of our body, the
brain, is protected by our skull. Pushing on our head, especially at the rear a few
inches above our neck, will allow us to feel our skull. Our skull is really
composed of several bones. Some of these bones protect our brain, while other
form the framework or our face. My second choice is musculoskeletal system
because skeleton supports the body and protects internal organs
such as heart, lungs, and brain.
2. What will happen if you are born without bones?
 We all know that bone help us to have body shape, therefore, without
bones, we couldn’t stand or even move.

Application
Label the parts of the skeletal system of the chicken.

Activity
List down 10 activities that you loved doing.
1. Playing basketball 6. Doing household chores
2. Working 7. Dancing
3. Running/Jogging 8. Composing a song
4. Walking 9. Eating
5. Exercising 10. playing badminton

Analysis
1. How many among these activities you have listed
involved the
muscles?
 All of the above activities.
2. What do you think is the most important function of the muscle?
 For me, the most important muscle is our heart because without heart, we can’t
survive. Therefore, we must make our heart stronger and active.
3. Will your muscle still contract even if you are asleep?
 If your spine isn’t in proper alignment, your back muscles are compelled to
contract with support. Therefore, back muscles don’t necessarily go to sleep
when you’re in bed, but they stay tense if your mattress is not providing
continuous support.

▪ What blood group has the lowest percentage?
o AB
▪ Why is blood group O considered as a universal red cell
Donor?
o Because it is compatible with any blood type.
▪ Why is blood group AB considered as a universal plasma
donor:
o Because their plasma doesn’t contain A or B antibodies and it
can be transfused safely to all blood types.

Application

oxygenated blood from the
lungs to the liver and
the unoxygenated
blood from the
liver back to the
lungs. Identify all
blood vessels and
organs involved.
Submit your illustration or
diagram in an A4 size
bond paper.

Lesson 6. The
Respiratory System

Activity
Perform the following task:
• First exercise: Breathe normally for 60 seconds and
record your respiratory rate (equivalent to one
inspiration and one expiration)
• Second exercise: Hold your breath for 30 to 45 seconds, once
the breath has been released, start recording
your respiratory rate for 60
seconds.
• Record your data on the table below.

Holding of Breath

Before After

20 breaths / minute 32 breaths / minute

Analysis

Answer the following questions:


1. What is the difference in respiratory rate between before and after the holding of
breath?
 Holding-
out breath
for a
while
will not
affect
our

breathing
rate.
Before
holding
the breath, the respiratory rate is low while when after holding the breath, the
respiratory rate is faster, therefore, then it is high or more breaths.
2. What do you think is the reason for the difference in the rate of respiration?
 Conditions can change a normal respiratory rate like asthma, anxiety, heart
failure, lung disease or use of narcotics and drug overdose.
3. Why can’t you hold your breath for a long time?
 Because our body needs oxygen and we can only get that through breathing.

Application
• Trace a molecule of oxygen from the external nares to the pulmonary capillaries of the
lungs
• Trace a molecule of CO2 in the liver until it reaches the alveoli of the lungs
`Pulmonary Capillaries venules pulmonary veins in each lung  left atrium of
heart  mitral value  left ventricle aorta abdominal aorta celiac trunk 
common hepatic artery  proper hepatic artery  left and right hepatic artery
small hepatic arteries  small hepatic arterioles  hepatocytes.
