WEEKLY LEARNING PLAN

Quarter: 1 Grade Level: 9

Week: 5 Learning Area Science

MELC/s:
 Infer how one’s lifestyle can affect the functioning of respiratory and circulatory systems.
 Describe the location of genes in chromosomes.
 Explain the different patterns of non -Mendelian inheritance

Day Objectives Topic/s Classroom-Based Activities

1  Explain how genetic Heredity: Begin with classroom routine:
information is organized in Inheritance and a. Prayer
genes on chromosomes Variation b. Reminder of the classroom health and safety protocols
c. Checking of attendance
d. Quick “kamustahan”

Recall
A. Activity
The students will have a summative test about the circulatory and respiratory systems.
After the test, we will check their answers.
Introduce new topic by playing video lesson.
B. Analysis
1. What is a gene?
2. Where are genes located?
3. What is a chromosome?
C. Abstraction
Several lifestyle choices can affect a person’s risk for developing respiratory and circulatory diseases. Negative
lifestyle weakens your system while healthy lifestyle leads to complete wellness. Vices, stressful environments,
 and unhealthy eating habits can cause various diseases, specifically of the respiratory and circulatory systems
D. Application
1. What do genes do?
2. What is the role of DNA in the transmission of traits?
Formative Assessment
The result of student activity is subject for assessment

Begin with classroom routine:

a. Prayer
b. Reminder of the classroom health and safety protocols

d. Quick “kamustahan”

Recall
A. Activity
Do the activity “Phenotypes and Genotypes in Incomplete Dominance”
Q1. How many types of gametes will each parent produce in problem no.1?_________
In problem no. 2? ___________

3. State the Law of Non-Mendelian Inheritance in snapdragon.
Guide Questions:
C. Abstraction
Incomplete dominance is a form of intermediate inheritance in which one allele for a specific
trait is not completely dominant over the other allele. This results in a third phenotype in
which the expressed physical trait is a combination of the dominant and recessive
phenotypes.
D. Application
How will you avoid unhealthy doing, like smoking?
Formative Assessment

 A. Activity
Do the activity “Mystery Bull”
B. Analysis
Processing questions:
Q5. Will you be able to trace the father of the calves?______________
 List the genotypes of the What are the possible phenotypes of the calves for each cow?_____________________
bull and cow in the given Q6. Do you think you will make Mang Marcelino happy about the result of your investigation?
problem Q7. How are you going to explain it to him? ________________________
Heredity:
 Diagram and complete a Q8. How would you apply what you have learned to improve the breeds of livestock in your area?

Punnett square Q9. What possible suggestions can you give to animal breeders in your area?
Variation C. Abstraction
 Give phenotypic
percentages of the In codominance, both alleles are expressed equally in the phenotype of the heterozygote. For example, red cows
offspring crossed with white cows will have offspring that are roan cows. Roan refers to cows with red hair and white
blotches.
D. Application
Base on your activity, how do you differ genetic traits of animals from plant traits?

Day Objectives Topic/s Home-Based Activities

A. Activity
Do the activity “What’s your blood type”
B. Analysis
Processing questions:
Q10. What blood type (or types) can be found in an offspring if a mother has type A blood and the father has
type B blood?________________________________
Q11. What blood type (or types) can be found in an offspring if a mother has type AB blood and the father has
 Infer the unknown type B blood?________________________________

members In humans, there are four blood types (phenotypes): A, B, AB, O.
 Blood type is controlled by three alleles: A, B, O.
 O is recessive, two O alleles must be present for a person to have type O blood.
 A and B are codominant. If a person receives an A allele and a B allele, their blood type is type AB
D. Application
How does knowing the blood type helps us in medical perspective?
Formative Assessment
The result of student activity is subject for assessment
 A. Activity
Do the activity “Boy or Girl”
B. Analysis
Q13. What will be the sex of a child produced when an egg is fertilized by a sperm that has a Y chromosome?
_______________________________________________
Q14. What type of sperm must fertilize an egg to result in a female child?
_________________________________________________
Q15. Based on this Punnett Square, what percent of children would you expect to be male?

Q16. Which sex chromosome is present in both male and female?
Heredity: _____________________________________________________
 Discuss how sex in humans

is determined Q18. What are the other factors that may influence the expression of human sexuality?
Variation
C. Abstraction
Males have 44 body chromosomes and two sex chromosomes X and Y. The males
determine the sex of their children. Females have 44 body chromosomes and two sex
chromosomes, both X. The total number in each cell of an individual is 46. These
chromosomes contain the genes, which are the factors of heredity.
D. Application
After doing the activity, how does knowing the sex chromosomes helps human in medical field?
