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.

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?
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.
Change in speed
Change in
and direction velocity
● The velocity of a moving body changes when its speed changes but remains
towards the 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
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
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.
