Devotional Questions:
1. God made man wonderfully. What is unique in creating man to the other living creatures? We are
more intelligent than the other creatures and more and also God made us with effort not just by word
but by work and Humanity’s unique role God’s unique role for humanity also sets us apart from the rest
of creation. God gave humanity a role in God’s creation. We are the caretakers of God’s world.
According to Psalm 8:3-9, God placed humanity slightly lower than God’s self in the created world.

Let us see if you still remember these in your science subject: (No need to submit your answers but
answer them with yourself.)

Activity 1: Human Sense Organ for Seeing: The Eye
Problem: What are the external and internal parts of the human eye? What are the ways of taking care
of the human eyes?
What to do:
Step 1: Do this activity with your partner.
Step 2: Look at each other with the focus on the eye.
Step 3: Identify the parts of the eye of your partner that you can see. Draw the eyes on the table
provided and label the parts.
1. Pupil 1. Pupil
3. Retina 3. Retina
4. Sclera 4.Sclera
You may surf the Internet or get hold of a Biology book to find the answers.
Step 4. Study the illustration of the parts of the human eye below. Enumerate the
parts as shown in the picture. Identify the function of each. Surf the internet to find the answers.
Macula - is to process harp, clear, straight-ahead vision.
Cornea - as the eye's outermost lens. It functions like a window that controls and focuses the entry of
light into the eye. The cornea contributes between 65- 75 percent of the eye's total focusing power.
Lens - changes the focal distance of the eye. In other words, it focuses the light rays that pass through it
(and onto the retina) in order to create clear images of objects that are positioned at various distances.
Optic nerve - to transfer visual information from the retina to the vision centers of the brain via
electrical impulses.
Retina - is to receive light that the lens has focused, convert the light into neural signals, and send these
signals on to the brain for visual recognition.
Step 5. How do you take care of your eyes? Give five good practices in taking care of your eye and five
practices that destroy your eye sight that you should avoid.
Activity 2: The Human Sense Organ for Hearing and Balance: The Ear
Problem: What are the external and internal parts of the human ear? What are the ways of taking care
of the human ears?
What to do:
Step 1: Examine the outer ear of your partner. Can you identify the three outer parts of the human
ear? The outer ear is made up of cartilage and skin. There are three different parts to the outer ear; the
tragus, helix and the lobule.
Step 2: Look at the picture of the structure of the human ear (outer, middle, inner).
Enumerate the different parts and identify the function of each.
Outer ear - catch sound waves, amplify them slightly, and funnel them down the ear canal to the
tympanic membrane
Ear canal - as an entryway for sound waves, which get propelled toward the tympanic membrane,
known as the eardrum.
Pinna - It collects sound waves and channels them into the ear canal (external auditory meatus), where
the sound is amplified.
Malleus - The malleus is one of three ossicles in the middle ear which transmit sound from the tympanic
membrane (ear drum) to the inner ear. The malleus receives vibrations from the tympanic membrane
and transmits this to the incus.
Incus- The incus receives vibrations from the malleus, to which it is connected laterally, and transmits
these to the stapes medially.
Middle ear - is to transmit vibrations from the tympanic membrane to the inner ear via the auditory
ossicles.
Organ of balance- picks up sound waves, allowing us to hear. It is also essential to our sense of balance
Stapes - transmitting sound waves from the air outside to the fluid-filled labyrinth (cochlea).
Vestibulocochlear nerve - is unusual in that it primarily consists of bipolar neurones. It is responsible for
the special senses of hearing (via the cochlear nerve), and balance (via the vestibular nerve).
Inner ear - It changes sound waves to electrical signals (nerve impulses). This allows the brain to hear
and understand sounds. The inner ear is also important for balance.
Eustachian tube - which opens intermittently to equalize the intratympanic air pressure with the
pressure in the external auditory canal. It also removes secretion and epithelial debris from the middle
ear by ciliary motion and gravity.
Step 3: How do you take good care of your ear? Give three practices in taking care of the ear and three
practices that are not good for your ears.
Destroying
•ear candling
Nose have hair and also it has two holes. Where Air are inhale and exhale
Step 2: Study the picture below. Identify the outer and the inner parts of the nose.
Olfactory bulb - receives neural input about odours detected by cells in the nasal cavity. The axons of
olfactory receptor (smell receptor) cells extend directly into the highly organized olfactory bulb, where
information about odours is processed.
Nasa cavity - It is lined with a mucous membrane that helps keep your nose moist by making mucus so
you won't get nosebleeds from a dry nose. There are also little hairs that help filter the air you breathe
in, blocking dirt and dust from getting into your lungs.
Nostril - is one of the two channels of the nose, from the point where they bifurcate to the external
opening. In birds and mammals, they contain branched bones or cartilages called turbinates, whose
function is to warm air on inhalation and remove moisture on exhalation.
Hard palate - The hard palate provides space for the tongue to move freely and supplies a rigid floor to
the nasal cavity so that pressures within the mouth do not close off the nasal passage.
Soft palate - The main functions of the soft palate are to aid speech, swallowing, and breathing.
Step 4: Enumerate the different ways of taking care of the nose.
•Clean your home regularly in order not to let dust accumulate on objects.
We blink because Blinking lubricates and cleans your eyes by spreading your tears over its outer surface.
It also protects your eye by closing it to keep out dust, other irritants, very bright light, and foreign
objects. And You can't control it like our body moves on its own. This is called involuntary blinking or
twitching. It the nature of our body.
2. Why do workers need to wear protective gears in construction site?
To protect every parts of nody from the things that can destroy our body parts.
3. You wish to eat leftover food like pasta. How can you tell if it is still good to eat it?
4. Your ears seem to be very itchy. What is the best way to handle this?
twe should see a doctor to find out the underlying cause. We may be able to relieve itchiness at home
by using a few drops of baby oil or olive oil. OTC eardrops may also help. If an infection is causing the
itchiness, we may require antibiotics.
5. Make a sample test for your pupils to show they know the parts of the skin.
3. React to the injury and feeling the pain will tell us? ( pain receptor)

IFLL- What sense organ did God use to give air for life to the man He made?
What do you think would happen if God did not make the sense organs
completely? It is the nose God blow the nose of the formed dust and turn into a living creature which
human being. Maybe when God did not make our organs it is very sure that human being are cannot
survive the world well or maybe we die early because we cannot sense anything. Life without organs is
very difficult, even right know we have organs but still difficult to survive how much more without those.
That's why we must give thanks to God who give us the best thing for us.
