The document contains a set of questions about Earth and life sciences for Module 1. It asks the student to explain how the Earth consists of four subsystems across which matter and energy flow. It also asks how human environment relationships in ecosystems illustrate geography as an environmental science, how open and closed systems differ and why Earth is a closed system but its subsystems are open, to describe a situation where two spheres are interacting, and to explain how the biosphere depends on the atmosphere and hydrosphere to survive. The final question asks the student to identify the four major divisions of the Earth system and how they interact.

Teacher I Module 1 Questions Earth and Life Sciences MELCS: Explain that the Earth consists of four subsystems, across whose boundaries matter and energy flow.
SYNTHESIS How does the examination of human
environment relationships in ecosystems serve to illustrate the role of geography as an environmental science? EVALUATION Show your understanding about the interaction between the components and processes involved in Earth system by illustrating it using concept map. ANALYSIS How do open and closed systems differ? Why would Earth be best described as a closed system but its subsystems are open system? APPLICATION Describe a situation where to or more spheres are interacting. Which spheres are they? COMPREHENSION How does biosphere depend on the atmosphere and hydrosphere to survive? KNOWLEDGE What are the four major divisions of the Earth system, and how do the division interact with one another?
