CIRCULATORY SYSTEM
The Cardiovascular or the Circulatory System is the transport system of body. It comprises of the blood,
heart, and the blood vessels.
FUNCTIONS
Transport of substances
1. The cardiovascular system transports nutrients absorbed from the digestive system to storage
sites (such as the liver) or directly to cells for energy.
2. Oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged between the blood and tissues at the capillaries,
supporting cellular respiration.
3. Other waste products, such as urea, are transported to the kidneys for excretion.
4. Hormones produced by endocrine glands are carried through the bloodstream to target organs
and tissues, regulating various physiological processes.
Immunity
1. White blood cells and antibodies are transported through the bloodstream, contributing to the
body's immune response against infections and foreign substances.
COMPONENTS
1. HEART – Main Pump
2. BLOOD – Circulating Liquid
3. BLOOD VESSELS – Passageway of Blood
HEART
VALVES
The heart’s valves ensure one-way flow of blood.
Semilunar (SL) valves open when blood flows out of
your ventricles.
a. Aortic valve: Opens when blood flows out of
your left ventricle to your aorta (artery that carries
oxygen-rich blood to your body).
b. Pulmonary valve: Opens when blood flows
from your right ventricle to your pulmonary
arteries (the only arteries that carry oxygen-poor
blood to your lungs).
Atrioventricular valves: The tricuspid valve and
mitral (bicuspid) valve. They are located between the
atria and corresponding ventricle.
Tricuspid valve: Door between your right atrium and right ventricle.
Mitral valve: Door between your left atrium and left ventricle.

another word you already know. (We’ll use the food court as our rendezvous, unless you can
suggest a better meeting place.)
2. Antonyms- words with opposite meanings, can be context clues like synonyms. Look for certain
cue words that suggest a contradiction or contrast. (Mary loves eating pasta like spaghetti and
noodles but abhors vegetables.)
3. Definition - Giving a direct definition of the new word using a form of BE or he can explain it by
restating it in other words.

HISTORY
The early beginning of dressmaking was marked by woven linen textile found in Egypt around 6,000
years ago and the evidence of silk culture in China 5 000 years ago.
Ancient Civilizations:
In ancient civilizations such as Egypt, Mesopotamia, Greece, and Rome, people crafted clothing using
basic sewing techniques. Garments were often draped and fastened with pins or brooches.
Medieval and Renaissance Periods:
Clothing became more tailored and fitted. The Renaissance saw a resurgence of interest in classical
styles, with an emphasis on luxurious fabrics, intricate embroidery, and elaborate accessories.
16th to 18th Centuries:
The 16th century saw the rise of structured garments, including corsets and farthingales. Tailors and
seamstresses worked with increasingly complex patterns. In the 18th century, the Rococo style
influenced fashion, characterized by elaborate and ornate designs.
19th Century:
The Industrial Revolution brought significant changes to dressmaking. Sewing machines were invented
in the mid-19th century, revolutionizing the production of clothing. Ready-made garments became
more widely available, but bespoke tailoring remained popular.
Victorian Era:
The Victorian era was marked by a strict social hierarchy reflected in clothing. Women's fashion
included voluminous skirts, corsets, and high collars. Tailors and dressmakers catered to the specific
needs and social status of their clients.
20th Century:
-The flapper style of the 1920s, with its loose silhouettes, symbolized a break from traditional restrictive
clothing.
-Prominence of couture houses like Chanel and Dior, shaping fashion with iconic designs.
-A rise in casual and eclectic styles.

OPERATION
1. Only use a sewing machine for its intended purpose as described in the operator’s manual.
2. Use the proper type and size needle for the fabric being sewn.
3. For zig-zag or any other special stitching, use a throat plate that accommodates a wide stitch.
4. Always maintain a safe zone, of about one inch, where fingers never enter when in operation.
5. Learn to start and run machine slowly & evenly. Operating the backstitch lever or knob takes practice.
6. Never sew across pins. Carefully use straight pins & when done, place in proper storage containers.
7. Never look away from the machine while it is sewing. If you need to look away, stop sewing first.
a. Temporary Stiches
1. Even basting – this is used for tacking seams and other details, which must be held
securely.
2. Uneven basting – It is used principally for marking center lines, pocket position and
the like.
b. Permanent Stiches
1. Running Stitch - This is a small hand stitch which is used for attaching fabrics
together or for joining fabric at the seams. Use a single thread with a knot at the end
and make several of the running stitches at once, so that it goes faster.
2. Back Stitch - This is a stronger and more secure hand stitch which done with a
single thread. Make a single stitch in and out of the fabric, and the front should look
straight and neat in a row, the back should have longer and overlapping stitches.
3. Blanket Stitch - Traditionally used to neaten edges. The regularly spaced stitches
cover the edge of a fabric, leaving a twist to strengthen and protect the edge. When
sewn very close together, it becomes a buttonhole stitch.
4. Slip Stitch/ Blind Stitch - This is an invisible hand sewn stitch which is used for
hemming. The less visible the thread is from the front of the hem the better.
5. Overcasting Stitch - This stitch is like the whip stitch. It is used for safe finishing of
the fabric edges to keep them neat and to stop them from getting unraveled at the

KASAYSAYAN
AMERIKANO
Pagsilang ng radyo. Noong
Hunyo 1922, si Henry
Hermann ang 50-watts na
istasyon sa Pasay at Maynila.
Noong 1924, ang KZ ay
nagtakda sa lahat ng istasyon
ng radyo sa Pilipinas.
Kaakibat nito ang batas ng Estados Unidos.
Pagbabago. Ang dating 50 watts ay 100-watts na ngayon, nagngangalang “KZKZ”. Noong 1929, ang
KZRC – RADIO ay nagbukas sa cebuat ipinakilala ang Radio Broadcasting sa probinsiya.
Commonwealth Act 3840. Ang Radio Control Law ay naisabatas at noong 1931, nabuo ang Radio
Control Division sa ilaim ng pamamahala ng Kalihim ng Komersyo at Industriya. Tinawag itong Radio
Control Office na nagtagal hanggang 1972 nung pinirmahan ni Marcos ang Proclamation 1081,
“paglagay ng buong Pilipinas sa batas militaryo.” Naitatag rin ang KAPISANAN NG MGA
BROADCASTER SA PILIPINAS (KBP).
HAPON
Anim. Bagong himpilan ng radyo, KZ- (EG, IB, RF, RH, RM). KZRM lamang ang nagtagal sa
himpapawid noong 1927. Tatlong lingo matapos salakayin ang Pearl Harbor, nagtalaga ng shortwave
relay sa Pilipinas. Tumagal ito ng anim na araw.
Homma. Si Heneral Masaharu Homma, Japanese CIC, ay nagdeklara ng katapusan ng Martial Law.
Nagtatag sila ng Japanese Military Administration. Bilang alternatibo, nagkaroon muli ng shortwave
relay station.
Pagsuko. Nang sumuko ang mga sundalo, lahat ng istasyon maliban sa KZRH ay nasira. Binuhay muli
ang tatlong istasyon sa Manila, KZRH, KZRM, KZRF. Dito sa tatlo, dalawa ay bantog sa US bilang bibig
sa bansa. Sa pamamahala ng Hapones, ang dalawang letra na PI ay nagging Philippines Islands.
Noong Pebrero 6, 1942, nanawagan ang KZRH sa mga Hapones na sila ay sumuko dahil sa lakas nila.

DOKUMENTARYONG PANTELEBISYON
✓ Isa pang mahalagang midyum sa larangan ng Broadcast Media at hindi maikakailang bahagi ng
buhay ng bawat Pilipino ang telebisyon.
✓ Ang Telebisyon ay hindi lamang tumutukoy sa isang appliance unit na karaniwang natatagpuan
sa mga kabahayan.
✓ Ang Telebisyon ay tumutukoy sa isang sistemang nagpapadala at tumatanggap ng mga
elektrikong imahe gamit ang Radio Waves.
✓ Saglit mang nahinto ang pamamayagpag ng telebisyon noong panahon ng Martial Law, sumibol
naman ang mas matapang na anyo ng balita at talakayan sa mas makabuluhang gampanin ng
telebisyon sa mamamayan.
✓ Dito kinilala ang mga batikang mamamahayag na sina CheChe Lazaro, Abner Mercado, Jessica
Soho, Howie Severino, Sandra Aguinaldo, Jay Taruc at Kara David.
KASAYSAYAN
Ang pag-imbento ng telebisyon ay isang mahabang proseso na nilahukan ng maraming siyentipiko
at imbentor na nag-ambag ng kanilang kaalaman at natuklasan hanggang sa nabuo ang sistema
noong dekada 40.
Gaya ng pelikula ang mga programang pantelebisyon ay maituturing ding isang uri ng sining na
nagsisilbing libangan at gumigising sa isip at damdamin ng isang tao.

THOMAS HOBBES
- Inihayag ni Hobbes ang kanyang kaisipan sa kanyang librong Leviathan. Ang pangyayaring
Digmaang Sibil na nangyari sa England ang nagkumbinsi sa kanyang konklusiyon na ang mga
tao ay natural na makasarili at masama.
- Ayon sa kanyang akda, ang mga tao ay pantay-pantay ngunit dahil sa kagustuhang makuha ang
mga bagay-bagay na inaasam ay nagdudulot ito ng kompetisyon at kawalan ng tiwala sa isa’t
isa. Ang ganitong pangyayari ay nagdulot ng pagiging dominado ng iba at maaari nilang
makontrol ang mas mababa sa kanila. Bukod pa rito nasambit niya sa kanyang libro na kung
walang pamahalaan na magmamando ng kaayusan, tiyak na magkakaroon ng awayan o
digmaan sa pagitan ng bawat tao. Naniniwala si Hobbes na kumikilos ang tao dahil sa
pansariling interes. Gusto ng tao na magkaroon ng kapangyarihan, pag-aari, at maraming
kakilala.
Anong sistema ng pamamahala ang ninanais ni Hobbes ayon sa kanyang akdang Leviathan?
- Hindi direktang sinabi ni Hobbes ang sitemang Absolute Monarchy ngunit ito ay isang
halimbawa na kanyang tinukoy. Sa pagkakaroon ng absolute monarchy, ang hari ay
magkakaroon ng ganap o buong karapatang kontrolin ang kanyang nasasakupan upang
magpataw ng kaayusan at pagsunod.
LEVIATHAN
Alam mo ba na ang pangalang Leviathan na pamagat ng libro ni Thomas Hobbes ay nakuha sa Bibliya
ng isang sea monster. Ngunit ayon kay Hobbes, makikita sa larawan na ang Leviathan ay isang
JOHN LOCKE
- Si Locke ay mayroong perspektibo tungkol sa likas na katauhan ng mga tao. Naniniwala siya na
ang mga tao ay natuto sa kanyang mga karanasan at kayang mapaunlad ang kanyang sarili.
- Ayon sa kanya, ang mga tao ay ipinanganak ng maylaya at pantay-pantay na mayroong natural
rights- life, liberty, at property. Ang pagkakaroon ng pamahalaan ay mainam dahil
binibigyan nila ng proteksyon ang mga karapatang ito. Kung hindi magagawa ito ng
pamahalaan, may karapatan ang mga mamamayan na palitan at paalisin ang namamahala.
- Malaki ang impluwensya ni Locke lalo na sa kasalukuyan dahil sa kaniyang paniniwalang, ang
kapangyarihan ng pamahalaan ay galing sa pahintulot ng mamamayan naging pundasyon ito
ng modernong demokrasya sa kasalukuyan.
MGA PHILOSPHERS
JEAN JACQUES ROUSSEAU
- Karamihan sa mga philosophes ay naniniwala na ang pangangatwiran, siyentipiko, at sining ay
nakatutulong sa pag-unlad ng pamumuhay ng mga tao. Ngunit para kay Rousseau ang
pagkabuo ng sibilisasyon ang dahilan ng pagkawala ng kabutihan sa mga tao. Nasambit niya ang
katagang, “Man is born free, and everywhere he is in chains.” Sa pagpapaliwanag ni
Rousseau, noong primitibong panahon, ang mga tao ay ipinanganak na malaya at pantay.
Gayunpaman, habang unti-unting nagiging civilized ang mga tao at nabubuo ang sibilisasyon,
ang taong malakas at makapangyarihan ay may kontrol na ipilit na ipatupad ang mga hindi
makatarungang mga batas para sa ibang tao.
- Naniniwala si Rousseau na ang tanging magandang gobyerno ay malayang binubuo ng mga tao
at ang gabay nito ang tinatawag niyang “general will” o pangkalahatang interes o kagustuhan.
Sa ganitong klaseng gobyerno, kinakailangang isuko ang kanilang ibang karapatan para sa
kabutihan ng lahat. Makikita ito sa libro niyang The Social Contract. Magka-iba ang ideya ni
Rousseau at Hobbes pagdating sa konspeto ng social contract. Ayon kay Rousseau, ang social
contract ay kasunduan ng malayang indibidwal upang magkaroon ng lipunan at
pamahalaan.
BARON DE MONTESQUIEU
- Ayon sa kanyang librong The Spirit of Laws, mayroong paghihiwalay ng kapangyarihan sa
pamahalaan — ang lehislatura bilang tagagawa ng batas; ang ehekutibo na tagapagpatupad
ng mga batas; at ang hudikatura na tagapagpaliwanag ng batas at tagahusga sa mga
lumalabag. Kilala ang konseptong ito bilang separation of powers. Ang pagkakahiwalay ngunit
pagkakapantay-pantay ng mga pangkat na ito ay magbibigay ng tiyak na kalayaan at seguridad
sa isang estado.
- Ang pagkakaroon ng separation of powers ay maiiwasan ang pagkontrol ng ilang grupo ng tao sa
pamahalaan. Nabanggit ni Baron na, “power should be a check to power” na kalaunan mas
kilala na sa kasalukuyan bilang “checks and balances.”
CESARE BECCARIA
- Siya ay isang Italian na philosophe na nakatuon ang ideya sa sistemang panghustisya.
Naniniwala siya na ang pagkakaroon ng batas ay upang magkaroon ng lipunang kaayusan at
hindi tanda ng paghihiganti sa mga krimen.
- Sa kanyang akdang On Crimes and Punishment, inilahad niya ang pang-aabuso sa hustisya.
Ayon sa kanya, ang taong naakusahan ng krimen ay may karapatang mapabilis ang paglilitis
(speedy trial) at ang pagpapahirap (torture) ay hindi dapat gamitin bilang proseso at paraan
ng pagpapa-amin ng sala. Nasambit din niya na ang kaakibat ng parusa ay base sa kanyang
krimen na nagawa.
