All living things influence and are influenced by other living things within a community. No
living things exist alone and independently of others. Some relationships between organisms
are beneficial to both types of organisms. Some relationships are one-sided and some are
harmful.
Animals in general are dependent upon plants for food. In return, animals give off carbon
dioxide which plants use in the food-making process.
Different relationships exist between organisms in order to satisfy their needs: food, shelter,
protection and others. Plants and animals live together in order to survive.
Kinds of Relationship
Mutualism- is a kind of relationship wherein both organisms benefit from each
other.
Commensalism – is a kind of relationship in which one organism’s benefits and the
other is not affected at all.
Competition- is a kind of relationship wherein organisms fight with each other to
satisfy their needs to live.
Predation- is a relationship when one organism kills the other for their survival.
Animals that kill are predators while the victims are called prey.
Parasitism -is a relationship wherein one organism benefits while the other is
harmed.
Parasites get nutrition from another organism while the host is the one supplying the
food.

Objective: Identify major parts of the circulatory system and their functions.
Remember:
The circulatory system is the transport system of the body. Its major parts are the heart,
the blood and the blood vessels like arteries, veins and capillaries.
Heart. The strongest muscles in the body which is pump-like organ located at the
center of the chest between the lungs. It keeps the blood circulating in
the body by contracting and then relaxing.
Blood. The liquid material that circulates throughout the body.
Blood vessels. The raw materials that man needs to power his thoughts and actions.
Note: Illustration of the Blood Circulatory System.
The heart is the strongest muscles in the body which is a pump – like organ
located at the center of the chest between the lungs. It keeps the blood circulating
in the body by contracting and then relaxing.
Note: Illustration of the heart showing its 4 chamber.
Directions: Encircle the number of the correct answer
33. What does the “pump “of the circulatory system refers too?
We can employ the given formula and substitute the given data.
Speed =?
Distance = 100 meters
Time = 11 seconds
S = 100/11
= 9.09 meters per second
Speedometer is an instrument which indicates the speed of a motor
vehicle.
VELOCITY
Velocity is the vector quantity in which the direction and speed of a moving object are
expressed.
Velocity may change if speed and direction change.
C
Change in speed a
Change in r
and direction velocity
The velocity of a moving body changes when its speed changes but remains towards the A
B
same direction.
ACCELERATION
Acceleration =?
Final speed = 30m/s
Initial speed = 10m/s
Time = 10 seconds
Acceleration = final speed-initial speed
Time
= 30m/s – 10m/s
10s
= 20
10
= 2.0 m/s2
CENTRIPETAL FORCE
41. If a person runs a distance of 300 meters in 20 seconds, what is his speed?
1. 10
2. 15
3. 20
4. 2
47. What is the acceleration of an automobile if its initial and final speed is 20 m/s
and
25 m/s respectively? The time is 5 seconds.
1. 0.5 m/s2
2. 1.0 m/s2
3. 2.0 m/s2
4. 2.5 m/s2
48. What will happen to a whirling ball attached to a string if it is suddenly
released?
1. the object will travel in a straight line
2. the object will travel in a circular path
3. the object will suddenly stop
4. the object will continue whirling
49 .Why does a moving object travel in a straight line?
1. because of velocity
2. because of centripetal force
3. because of acceleration
4. because of inertia
50. What causes an object to move in circular path?
1. centrifugal force
2. centripetal force
3. inertia
4. gravity
The distance of stars from Earth can be measured in terms of light year. A light year is the
distance of stars from Earth. This means one light year is equivalent to about 9.5 trillion
kilometers. If the stars’ distances were to be expressed in kilometers they will be so large that
they will be overwhelming us.
Proxima Centauri is about 4.25 light years away from Earth. Antares has an apparent magnitude
of + 1.0. Sirius has an apparent magnitude of – 1.4. Stars with a magnitude below + 1.0 are
considered brighter than those with an apparent magnitude of above + 1.0. Our Sun has an
apparent magnitude of – 26.8 which is below + 1.0. It is the brightest star we can see from our
Earth.
Our Sun is a yellow star. Betelgeuse is a red star. While Sirius is a white star. And Rigel is a
bluish-white star. The color of the star is related to its surface temperature. Blue stars are the
hottest while red stars are the coolest.
Stars vary in size. Those that are thousands larger than our Sun are called super giants.
Betelgeuse and Antares are supergiants. Stars bigger than our Sun but smaller than super giants
are called giant stars. Arcturus is a giant star. Stars which are smaller than our Sun are called
dwarf stars.
Usefulness of Stars
52. Why does a medium-sized star appear brighter than the others?
1. great distance
2. nearness to Earth
3. great size
4. both 2 and 3
56. A group of stars that seem to form patterns are called __________________.
1. Solar system
2. Constellation
3. Galaxy
4. Milky Way
58. Why is light year preferable to use than kilometer when expressing thedistance
ofstars?
1. It is longer.
2. It is more accurate.
3. It is more unique
4. both 1 and 2
59. The color of a star is due to its _____
1. temperature
2. distance from the Earth
3. orbit
4. size

OXYGEN –CARBON DIOXIDE CYCLE
Objective: Illustrate the interdependence of plants and animals for gases through the oxygen and
carbon –dioxide cycle.
Remember
An ecosystem has materials that plants and animals used in order to live. Among these materials
are oxygen and carbon-dioxide.
Oxygen is a gas released as a by-product of photosynthesis. It is cycled in the environment.
Carbon dioxide is released in respiration .It is also released when decomposition occurs.
Oxygen is released by plant sand is taken in by animals for respiration while carbon dioxide is
taken in by plants for photosynthesis.
21. In the carbon-oxygen cycle carbon gas and oxygen gas mixes in the ____________.
1 atmosphere
2 soil
3 fossil fuel
4 factories
24. Carbon- dioxide is one of the gases that cause the warming of the atmosphere. This
condition is known as the ____________.
1. global warming
2. green house effect
3. thermal energy
4. heat
The plants and the fish in the aquarium show a basic type of ecosystem.
28. Which
statements above illustrate
the dependence of one organism to another?
1. The fish can make food through the help of the plants
2. The fish needs the plants for reproduction and the plants need the fish for
protection.
3. The fish need carbon-dioxide from the plants for respiration and the plants oxygen
from the fish for photosynthesis.
4. All of the above.
30. What will if the supply of carbon –dioxide is permanently cut off?
1. Oxygen
2. Carbon –dioxide and water
3. Nitrogen
