Natural Resources

PREPARED BY; JEYMAR A. PAYUMO

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
1. Define resources.
2. Value the importance of conserving
resources.
3. Explain the effects of human activities
on natural resources.

THIS EQUALS THAT!

Students will going to determine
the possible products that can
be made using the presented
pictures.

 RESOURCES
These are the things that are
available around us which we
use for different purposes.
 TYPES OF
RESOURCES
ARTIFICIAL RESOURCES
Resources that are man-made. This
means they don't occur naturally in
the environment, and they aren't
naturally replenished, so we have to
keep producing them or else we'll run
out.
 NATURAL RESOURCES

Materials from the Earth that are used

to support life and meet people's
needs
 TYPES OF
NATURAL
RESOURCES
 RENEWABLE RESOURCES
Renewable resources are resources
that is unlimited in supplies. This
also called as inexhaustible natural
resources.
NON-RENEWABLE RESOURCES
These resources are energy that
cannot be replaced if we use it
continuously.
Examples of
Resources
 SOIL
Most life on earth as a direct or indirect
source of food depend on soil. Plants and
animals source of nutrients and home to
many different life forms.. The process of
weathering and erosion helps in the
formation of new soils and rocks
 WATER
Water is a vital for everyone’s life. For life,
crops, animals and humans all need is water.
Water cycle allows to continuous distribution
of water on earth.
 ROCKS AND MINERALS
Rocks uses to made some musical materials
that we use. Such as Obsidian and pumice,
rocks produced by volcanic eruption.
Obsidian is used to mates couples and
pumice as abrasive
 COAL
Coal assembly that remains of woody plants
that died in swampy condition. It is produced
by the decomposition of organic matter it is
also a type of fossil fuel.
 FOSSIL FUELS
Fossil fuels are well our main energy
resources. They help in generating electricity
and heat. Coals, oil and natural gas are
examples of fossil fuels.
 Importance of
Natural Resources
1. Natural resources helps to maintain the environmental violence and
satisfy the needs to the fullest.

2. A wide range of industrial material and biological material from plant

and animal.

3. Resources as known as the capital converted to commodity.

4. Resources are important for the development of the country.

5. They play a vital role in the economic development of a country.

 Human activities
that affects natural
resources.
 POLLUTION
Pollution can damage crops and trees in a
variety of ways. Ground-level ozone can lead
to reductions in agricultural crop and
commercial forest yields, reduced growth and
survivability of tree seedlings, and increased
plant susceptibility to disease, pests and
other environmental stresses (such as harsh
weather).
 DEFORESTATION
The loss of trees and other vegetation can
cause climate change, desertification, soil
erosion, fewer crops, flooding, increased
greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, and a
host of problems for Indigenous people.
 MINING
The effects can result in erosion, sinkholes,
loss of biodiversity, or the contamination of
soil, groundwater, and surface water by the
chemicals emitted from mining processes.
These processes also affect the atmosphere
from the emissions of carbon which have an
effect on the quality of human health and
biodiversity.
 OVERPOPULATION
Larger populations require more food, water,
and energy, and consequently tax the earth's
ability to replace used resources.
Overpopulation depletes wildlife to
dangerously low levels. Overfishing has
ruined many formerly fertile fishing grounds.
 Seatwork
Identify the following.

1. It uses to meet some useful material. Obsidian

employees are example of it.
2. Natural resources that is vital for everyone life.
3. That remains a booty plants that died and swampy
condition
4. Coal, oil and natural gas is an example of?
5. These are the things needed for a man to live.
6. The loss of trees and other vegetation can
cause climate change.
7. The effects can result in erosion, sinkholes,
loss of biodiversity, or the contamination of soil
8. resources that is unlimited in supplies
9. Resources that are man-made
10. These resources are energy that cannot
be replaced if we use it continuously.
