Objectives:
At the end of the lesson, the students will be able to:
• State the different theories that explain the origin of the universe
• Describe the different theories that explain the origin of the Solar System
• Explain the current advancement or information about the Solar System
Matter – is composed of atoms
Organic matter – composed of cells

According to Genesis
Big Bang Theory and other Theories
• Theories that explain the origin of
the universe
• 1.Big Bang Theory
• 2.Steady State Theory
• 3.Inflation Theory
• 4.String Theory
• 5.M-theory
Big Bang Theory
• proposed by Alexander Friedman and Georges Lamaitre in 1920
• around 13.7 bya through colossal explosion
• there was a great explosion/expansion due to random fluctuation
sent space, time, matter and energy
Description of the Events
• 1.Inflationary epoch – size of atomic nucleus
• 2.Formation of the universe – universe continued to expand
• 3. Formation of the basic elements (3 s) – protons and neutrons combined
to form hydrogen nuclei.
• 4.Radiation era (10 000 years)– included different wavelengths of light,
X-rays, radio waves, and ultraviolet rays.
form
cosmic microwave background radiation
• 5.Matter domination (300 000 years) – matter dominate at the end of the radiation era.
- lithium atom began to form
- electrons joined with hydrogen and
helium nuclei to make small neutral
atoms.
6.Birth of stars and galaxies (300 million years) – slightly irregular areas of gas cloud gravitationally
attracted nearby matter and became denser.
- dense gas clouds collapsed and gained mass to
ignite and produce light
Huge clouds of gas – birthplace for dozens of stars
Galaxies – groups of stars
1. Strong force – short range attractive force which binds the
nucleus
2. Electromagnetic force – long-range force that binds atoms
which can either be attractive or repulsive
3. Weak force – short-ranged force present in radioactive decay
4. Gravitational force – weak, long-ranged, and attractive force
which binds the Solar System
