Topic 1: Theories on the Origin of the Universe
PRE-HISTORIC THEORIES
Genesis
Hindu Text Rigveda
Atomic Universe
Geocentric Universe
Cartesian Vortex
Atomic Universe
Atomic theory established that all matter is made of tiny particles. According to Democritus’ atomic theory,
everything is made of atoms which are:
o Physically but not geometrically indivisible
o Indestructible
o Have always been, and always will be in motion
5 Atomic models:
1. John Dalton’s atomic model – Dalton’s Billiard ball (Solid Sphere) Model
2. J.J Thomson’s model – Plum Pudding Model
3. Ernest Rutherford’s model – Nuclear Model
4. Neil Bohr’s model – Planetary Model
5. Erwin Schrodinger’s model – Electron Cloud Model/Quantum Model
Geocentric Universe
States that Earth is the center of the Universe. The earth is immobile in the center of the cosmos, and the
sphere if the fixed stars rotates around it once a day, carrying the sun, moon, and planets with it.
Characteristics of Geocentric:
o Earth is in the center and is stationary
o The planets, the sun, and the stars revolve around it
o The sphere are perfect shapes
Cartesian Vortex
A depiction of Rene Descartes’ vortices. In his theory, the universe was filled with elements of different sizes
which sifted around each other. Adopted on ontological of two finite substances:
o mind (spirit or soul), the essence is self-conscious
o matter, the essence is extension on three dimensions.
MODERN THEORIES ON THE ORIGIN OF THE UNIVERSE
Big Bang Theory Singularity
Describes the universe as expanding, and originated in an infinitely - Pure energy
tiny, infinitely dense point around 14 billion years ago. compressed in one
single point.
- Edouard Lemaitre - A violent explosion
- Edwin Hubble which caused the
- Amo Penzias inflation and
- Robert Wilson expansion of the
universe
4 Fundamental Forces:
o Gravity (attraction between bodies)
o Electromagnetic force (binds atoms into molecules)
o Strong nuclear force (binds protons and electrons)
o Weak nuclear force (breaks down an atom’s nucleus and produce radioactive energy)
Inflationary Theory
The concept was developed by Russian-American physicist Andrei Linde
American physicist Alan Guth
To solve the uncertainties of the standard big bang theory, such as horizon and flatness problems
String Theory
Everything in our universe is made up of tiny vibrating strings that are one dimensional objects and are identical
to one another.
Multiverse
Sees the universe as just one of many “bubbles” that grew as a part of a multiverse
Topic 2: Types of Galaxies
HOW DOES GALAXIES FORM?
As clouds of dusks and stars swirl around space, gravity pulls other objects closer to it, eventually moving in
together to form one giant spinning pack of stars and dust.
Elliptical Galaxies
Named for their shapes
Look like fat, fuzzy footballs
The stars in an elliptical galaxy is wrap completely around the galaxy’s
heart
Composed of older stars, and new star formation ceases to occur
The largest galaxies that have been observed are elliptical in shape
One of the largest observable elliptical galaxy is known as IC 1101
Irregular Galaxies
Have no definite shape
Often small in size, with only 1 million to billions of stars
Large and Small Magellanic Clouds are two irregular galaxies that lie
close to our Milky Way galaxy and can be observed in the sky from the
southern hemisphere.

2. Sedimentary rocks
- Formed by the compaction and cementation of sediments, a process called “lithification”
- Rocks are formed through the accumulation, compaction, and cementation of sediments
- Forms at the surface or near surface conditions; weathering of rocks; sediment transport and deposition,
compaction, and cementation
- Process: weathering and transport agents (water, wind, ice)
Common Sedimentary Features
a. Strata
- 1 cm is called bedding
- Anything less is lamination
- Layering is the result of a change in grain size and composition
- Each layer represents a distinct period of deposition
b. Fossils
- Remains of traces of plants and animals that are presented in rocks
Classification of Sedimentary rocks according to Clastic or Non-Clastic
a. Clastic
- Made up of sediments from pre-existing rocks
- When pre-existing rocks are physically weathered and eroded they form sediments
- When these sediments are transformed, deposited, lithified, they form the clastic sedimentary rocks
- These rocks can be identified based on their grain sizes that can range from 0.002 mm (e.g. clay size) to
>2mm (coarse gravel)
b. Non-Clastic
- Can be biological, chemical, or a combination of both
- Biological sedimentary rocks are lithified accumulation of dead organisms
Ex: coal (formed from carbon-rich plants) and limestone (from the remains of calcareous organisms)
- Chemical sedimentary rocks are from chemical precipitation
Ex: rock salt (dissolved salts precipitate from a solution)
3. Metamorphic rocks
- Formed by pre-existing rocks that are exposed to extreme heat and pressure in the Earth’s interior, a
process called “metamorphism”

Topic 7: Mining
Surface Mining Blasting –
- To extract are minerals near the surface of the Earth controlled use of
- Soil and rocks that covered the ores are removed through blasting explosions and
a. Open-pit Mining gas exposure to
- Most common type of surface mining break rocks.
- Open pit, means a big hole (pit) in the ground by blasting with explosives and
drilling
- Used to mine gravel and sand and even rock
b. Strip Mining
- Removal of a thin strip of overburden (soil) above a desired deposit
- Used for cool, phosphates, clays, and tar mining
c. Dredging
- Mining from the bottom of a body of water: rivers, lakes, and oceans
Underground Mining
- Used to extract rocks, minerals, and other precious stories that can be found beneath the Earth’s surface
- They create a tunnel
- More expensive and dangerous
Mineral Processing
- Extracting minerals from the ore, refining them and preparing these minerals for use
PRIMARY STEPS IN PROCESSING MINING
1. Sampling – removal of a portion which represents a whole needed for the analysis of this material
2. Analysis
- To evaluate the valuable component in an ore
- This includes chemical, mineral and particle size analysis
3. Comminution
- Valuable components of the ore are separated through crushing and grinding
- Begins by crushing the ores to a particular size and finishes it by grinding the ores into a powder form
4. Concentration – separation of the valuable minerals from the raw materials
5. Dewatering
- Uses the concentration to convert it to valuable minerals
- Involves filtration and sedimentation of the suspension and drying of the solid materials harvested from
the suspension
Fossil Fuels
- energy rich substances formed from the remains of once-living organisms
- Include coal, petroleum (oil), natural gas, oil shales, bitumens, tar sands, and heavy oils
- Without fossil fuels, most automobiles are stranded, most of the lights go out, and our homes become
hotter in summer and cooler in winter
- All fossil fuels contain carbon
- All were formed as a result of geologic processes acting on the remains of organic matter produced by
photosynthesis
- Comes from algae, bacteria, and plants
- Actual remains of plants and animals
- might be mere impressions made in the rock
- skeleton, bones which are rich in calcium phosphate and diatoms are made up of silicon dioxide (silica)
- sometimes bones, shells, and tissues are transformed into solid minerals
Fuels
A fuel is a substance that provides a form of energy
Such as heat, light, electricity, or motion
As a result of a chemical change
Combustion

KOMUNIKASYON AT PANANALIKSIK SA WIKA AT KULTURANG FILIPINO
Paksa: Konsepto ng Wika
ANO ANG WIKA?
Ang wika ay isang instrumento ng komunikasyon na ginagamit sa pakikipagtalstasan at kasangkapan ng tao sa
pagpapahayag ng kanyang damdamin.
Hutch (1991) “Ang wika ay isang sistema ng tunog o sagisag na ginagamit ng tao sa
pakikipagkomunikasyon.”
Otanes (1990) “Ang wika ay isang napakasalimuot na uri ng pakikipagtalastasan.”
Henry Allan Gleason (1961) “Ang wika ay isang masistemang balangkas ng mga sinasalitang tunog na
pinipili at isinasaayos sa paraang arbitraryo na ginagamit sa pakikipagkomunikasyon ng mga taong
kabilang sa isang kultura.”
Sapiro “Ang wika ay isang lakas at makataong pamamaraan ng paghahatid ng mga kasisipan,
damdamin, at hangarin sa pamamagitan ng isang kusang-loob na kaparaanang lumikha ng tunog.”
Hemphill “Ang wika ay isang masistemang kabuuan ng mga sagisag na sinasalita o binibigkas na
pinagkaisahan o kinaugalian ng isang pangkat ng mga tao, at sa pamamagitan nito’y nagkakaugnay,
nagkakaunawan, at nagkakaisa ang mga tao.”

Ang wikang opisyal ng Pilipinas ay Filipino at Ingles
Virgilio Almario “Ang wikang opisyal ay ang itinadhana ng batas na maging opisyal na talastasan
ng pamahalaan. Ibig sabihin ito ang wikang maaaring gamitin sa anumang uri ng komunikasyon.”
Itinakda sa Konstitusyon 1987 ang Filipino at Ingles bilang mga opisyal na wika ng Pilipinas
Saligang Batas 1987, Artikulo XIV, Seksyon 7
- Ukol sa mga layunin ng komunikasyon at pagtuturo, ang mga wikang opisyal ng Pilipinas ay
Filipino at hangga’t walang itinadhana ang batas, Ingles.
Saligang Batas 1987, Artikulo XIV, Seksyon 8
- Ang konstitusyong ito ay dapat ipahayag sa Filipino at Ingles; at dapat isalin sa mga
pangunahing wikang panrelihiyon, Arabic at Kastila.

espisipikong patakaran o mga alituntunin sa paggamit ng wika.
Yule (2014) “Ang wika at pamamaraan ng paggamit nito ay isang porma ng panlipunang
identidad at ginagamit, malay man o hindi, upang ipahiwatig o maging palatandaan ng pagiging kasapi
ng isang tao sa isang tiyak na grupong panlipunan.”
Unang wika – wikang kinagisnan mula pagsilang
Pangalawang wika – pagkakaroon ng eksposyur sa iba pang wika sa kanyang paligid
Ikatlong wika – iba pang wikang naririnig o nakikila na kalaunay natutuhan

Bilingguwalismo
- tumutukoy sa kakayahan ng isang taong makapagsalita ng dalawang wika
- Leonard Bloomfield (1935) “Ang bilingguwalismo ay ang paggamit o pagkontrol ng tao sa
dalawang wika na tila ba ang dalawang ito ang kanyang katutubong wika.”
- John Macnamara (1967) “Ang bilingguwal ay isang taong may sapat na kakayahan sa isa sa
apat na wika na markong kasanayan ang pangwikang kinabibilangan ng pakikinig,
pagsasalita, pagbasa at pagsulat sa isa pang wika maliban sa kanyang unang wika.”
- Uriel Weinreich (1953) “Sinasabing ang paggamit ng dalawang wika nang magkasalitaan ay
matatawag na bilinggualismo at ang taong gagamit ng mga wikang ito ay bilinggual.”
- Lauren Lowry (2011) “Ang bilinggual na bata ay malikhain at mahusay. Sa nakatatanda
naman ay nababawasan ang sakit na may kinalaman sa pag-iisip at nahuhuli ng apat na
taon sa pagkakaroon ng Dementia.”
- Ipinatupad ang BEP sa Pilipinas sa pamamagitan ng National Board of Education (NBE)
Resolution No. 73-7 S. 1973 noong 1994
