TENSES:

Uses of Simple Present Tense

1. To express a habitual action.

For example : I get up every day at five o’clock.

2. To express general truths

For example : Fortune favours the brave.

3. In vivid narrative , as substitute for the simple past.

For example : Immediately the Sultan hurries to his capital.

4. To indicate a future event that is part of a fixed programme or time table.

For example : The train leaves at 5:20 am.

Note: We can also use will leave in place of leaves.

5. It is used to introduce quotations.

For example : Keats says, ‘A thing of beauty is a joy forever’.

6. In exclamatory’ sentences beginning with here and there to express what is actually taking place in
the present.

For example : Here comes the bus!

7. When two actions of the future are being talked about, one dependent on the other, the former
action is represented by present simple and the latter by future simple.

For example : We shall go when the child comes back home.

Uses of Present Continuous Tense

1. For an action going on at the time of speaking.

For example: The boys are playing cricket in the ground.

2. For a temporary action that may not be actually happening at the time of speaking but was
happening in the recent past and is still happening in recent future.

For example: I am reading Sidney Sheldon now a days.

3. To express changing or developing situations .


For example: India is progressing day by day.

4. For an action that is planned or arranged to take place in the near future.

For example: I am going to cinema tonight.

Note: But it is not good to use the present continuous for slightly distant future. So, don’t say

a) I am going to cinema next week. Rather, use the future simple. So, it is better if you say

b) I will go to cinema next week.

5. When the reference is to a particularly obstinate habit, the present continuous is used instead of
present simple. An adverb like always, continually, constantly is also used.

For example: It is no use scolding him; he always does what is forbidden. (Incorrect)

Note: that his doing what is forbidden has become a die-hard habit. The habit persists in spite of advice
or warning. So, we should use the present continuous.

For example: It is no use scolding him; he is always doing what is forbidden. (Correct)

Uses of Present Perfect Tense

1. To indicate the completed activities in the immediate past .

For example: He has just gone out.

2. Action completed in the immediate past or an action of the past whose effect lingers in the present.

For example: I wrote three books. (Incorrect)

The given sentence appears to be incomplete. The reader of the sentence immediately queries. ‘When
did you write three books?” It would be a different case if you said

For example: I wrote books .

Then the reader would infer that you wrote books in the past as a profession or hobby. But when you
are being so specific as to say “three books”, we immediately feel the need of a time frame . Since no
time frame is mentioned, we assume it to be ‘by now’. So, we have something to the effect.

For example:

I have written three books by now.

This ‘by now’ is implied and need not be written.


So, For example:

I have written three books. (Correct)

3. The present perfect is never used with adverbs of past time. In such cases the past simple should be
used.

For example:

India has won the match last week (Incorrect)

“Last week” is not immediate past. You may therefore be tempted to use the present perfect. But
remember that the immediate past here does not go unindicated. Last week is being used as an adverb
of past time.

So, For example: India won the match last week. (Correct)

4. To express past actions whose time is not given and not definite – actions with their effect
continuing in the present.

For example:

a) I have never known him to be angry.

b) Have you read ‘Gulliver’s Travels’?

5. To describe the past events when we think more of their effect in the present than of the action
itself .

For example: I have cut my finger.

6. For long actions and situations which started in the near past and went on until very recently.

For example: I have read three chapters since this morning.

Uses of Present Perfect Continuous Tense

For an action, which began at some time in the past and is still continuing. With the present perfect
continuous tense an adverb or phrase that expresses time is used.

For example:

a) I have been reading this book since morning.

b) They have been building the bridge for several months.


Uses of Simple Past Tense

1. To indicate an action completed in the past . Generally, adverbs or adverb phrases of past time are
used in the past simple tense.

For example:

a) The steamer sailed yesterday.

b) He went home some time back.

2. To express imaginary present situations or imaginary future events that may not happen .

For example:

a) If I had longer holidays, I would be very happy.

b) If I got rich, I would travel all over the world.

3. When this tense is used without an adverb of time, then time may be either implied or indicated by
the context .

For example: I didn’t sleep well. (i.e., last night)

4. For past habits ‘used to’ is added to the verb.

For example: She used to carry an umbrella.

Uses of Past Continuous Tense

1. To denote an action going on at some time in the past . The time of the action may or may not be
indicated .

For example:

a) It was getting darker.

b) We were listening to the radio all evening.

2. When a new action happened in the middle of a longer action. In this case Past simple and Past
continuous are used together. Past simple is used for the new action.

For example: The Light went out while I was reading .

3. For persistent habits in the past.

For example: She was always chewing gum.


Uses of Past Perfect Tense

1. When two actions happened in the past. In this case it is necessary to show which action happened
earlier than the other. Here past perfect is used for the action, which happened earlier.

For example:

a) When I reached the station the train had started .

b) I had done my exercise when Hari came to see me.

2. An action that began before a certain point of time in the past & was continuing at the given point
of time in the sentence. A time expression like since last year , for the last few days is generally put
after perfect continuous tense.

For example:

a. At that time he had been writing a novel for two months.

b. Here, At that time is the given point of time and for two months is the point of time in the past.

Uses of Simple Future Tense

For an action that has still to take place.

2. Represents the future events that are planned.

For example: He will be meeting us next week.

Uses of Future Perfect Tense


To indicate the completion of an event by a certain future time.

For example: I will have written my exercise by that time.

Uses of Future Perfect Continuous Tense

1. The future perfect continuous tense indicates an action represented it being in progress over a
period of time that will end in the future. Generally time period is mentioned along with it.

For example: By next July we will have been living here for four years.

2. Event occurring at the same time must be given in the same tense.

For example: When he fainted, his brother was with him.

3. Will or Shall cannot be used twice in the same sentence even if both the actions refer to the future
tense.

For example:

a) I shall come if he will call me. (Wrong)

b) I shall come if he calls me. (Right)

4. With the phrases as if and as though the past tense and plural form of the verb should be used.

For example:

a) He behaves as if he is a king. (Wrong)

b) He behaves as if he were a king. (Right)

5. With the word ‘wish’ four verbs are used namely were, had, could, would. ‘Were’ is used when the
wish seems to be unrealisable.

For example: I wish I were a king.

6. ‘Had’ is used when our wish is a lament over the past happening .

For example: I wish I had accepted that job.

7. ‘Would’ is used when we refer to the future.

For example: I wish I would get a ticket.

8. ‘Could’ is used when we wish that something that has happened already should have happened
otherwise.
For example: He did not go because he was busy yesterday. I wish he could go with you.

9. ‘For’ is used for a period of time.

For example: He has been working for two hours.

10. ‘Since’ is used with a point of time.

For example: He has been working since morning.

11. In case of conditional sentences ‘had’ and ‘would have’ are used.

For example: If I had met him I would have invited him.

Subjunctive Mood

Sense Verb or Sensory Verb

A sense verb is a verb that describes one of the five senses: sight, hearing, smell, touch, and taste. Verbs
such as look, seem, taste, feel, smell, and sound are sensory (sense) verbs. In English, it is important to
use adjectives rather than adverbs with sense verbs.

Example:

Ethan crossed the street quickly. (correct)

However, sense verbs should be modified by adjectives to sound right.

1. Even from a distance, Ethan’s pace looked quickly. (incorrect)

Even from a distance, Ethan’s pace looked quick. (correct)


2. The cookies smelled delicious. (correct)

The cookies smelled deliciously. (incorrect)

Grammar:

Rule 8. With words that indicate portions—e.g., a lot, a majority, some, all —Rule 1 given earlier in
this section is reversed, and we are guided by the noun after of. If the noun after of is singular, use a
singular verb. If it is plural, use a plural verb.

Examples:

A lot of the pie has disappeared .

A lot of the pies have disappeared.

A third of the city is unemployed.

A third of the people are unemployed.

All of the pie is gone.

All of the pies are gone.

Some of the pie is missing.

Some of the pies are missing.

NONE

When none stands in as a shortened form of no one , as was its original purpose, it can be followed by
a singular verb.

For example: None of us is tall. (Not one of us is tall.)

When none means not any , the subsequent verb is plural:

1. None of the students are absent . (Not any of the students are absent from school.)

2. None of the jewels were stolen. (Not any of the jewels were stolen).

Either
1. Either of the restaurants is a good choice. (It might be easier to think of this as either one of the
restaurants, where one is singular, and either one is a good choice.

Some other examples of the correct use of either include:

1. Does either of you know a good restaurant? (NOT: Do either of you know)

2. Let's get some ice cream, if either of you wants it . (NOT: If either of you want)

Neither

1. Neither restaurant was very good.

Some more examples include:

Neither of us wants to play tennis today. (NOT: Neither of us want)

Neither of these shops has the jacket in my size. (NOT: Neither of these shops have)

11. Balintuna (irony) – Ito ay isang tayutay na sa pamamagita nito ang kahulugang patitik ng isang anyo
ng pananalita ay kabaligtaran sa tangkang sabihin, dahil sa ang isang bagay na sinabi ay may ibang
pakahulugan at ginamit sa pangungutya o katuwaan lamang.

Halimbawa:

“Ang tao kung minsa’y batang nagagalak,

Utal pa ang dila, kung mangusap, patas!

Ipako si Kristo ang sabi ng lahat

At ang pagkawala’y itong si Barabas . . .!

-Sa tulang “Ang sasabihin ng Tao”

Ni Jose Corazon de Jesus

Kung ito’y totoo, siya ay bulaan.

-Lirio G.Mendoza-

15. Pagpapalit-saklaw (Synedoche) – Ito ay isang tayutay na bumabanggit sa bahagi ng isang bagay o

“Ang pag-ibig ay ating kaligtasan

Banal na pag-ibig at katotohanan.”

17. Patambis (anithesis) –Ito ay isang paglalagay ng isang sugnay o ibang bahagi ng pangugusap laban sa
isa pa na sinasalungat niyon.

Binhi hindi bomba! Pawis hindi dugo!”

-Sa tulang “Pawis Hindi Dugo”


ni Teo S. Baylen

18. Patiwas (epigram) –Ito ay isang mahayap o patambis na kasabihan tungo at nagwawakas sa isang

Halimbawa:

At ang kanyang anak, sa yama’y mag-angkin

Ang tawag ng bayan ay maginoo rin!

Ating pag-uugali nang ang suwi ng saging,

Gadangkal pa lamang saging nang tawagin!

Mana-manang yaman sa habang panahon,

Walang anu-ano ang bata’y naulol!

At ang mga tao ay nakapagtanong:

“Kakayamang tao, bakit nagkaganon?”

At ang pangyayari ang sumagot naman:

“Iyang ama nya’y baliw nang namatay,

Namana ang pilak, ano’t pagtatakhang

Manahin sa ama pati kabaligtaran

-Sa tulang “Ang Maginoo”

pamamagitan ng mandi’y pansariling paghihidwa.

22. Pag-uulit (germination) – Ito ay kagyat na pag-uulit ng isang salita saan mang bahagi ng mga taludtod
ng tula.

Halimbawa:

“taghoy ng pagkasing sa lambing at timyas

ay di nman taghoy;

kayat hindi tinghoy;

luoy na talutot na ang aking bango’y bangong

di naluoy;

lamuymoy ng sintang nang maging

hinaing ay gintong lamuymoy.”

- Sa tulang “Ang Tula”

ni Fernando B. Monleon
23. Pasintunog (onomatopoeia) – Ito ay paggamit ng mga salitang kung ano ang gamit o tunog ay siyang

KUNG ANO’T TUMUNOG SA MADALING ARAW.

AT ANG TINUGTOG AGUNYAS NG PATAY;

Saka nang dumating ang kinabukasan

May PUNTOD nang LIBING SA HARAP NG ALTAR

Madaling magmaliw madaling mapagod!

Itong Kagubatan

Milagros B. Macaraig

Dati ay masaya itong kagubatan,

May luntiang daho’t mga kabundukan;

Kahoy na mataas tila nagduruyan,

Mga ibo’t hayop doong nanahan.

Kagubatan noong mistula ay langit,

Mga mangangasong doo’y sumasapit


May galak sa puso ang hapis na dibdib

Dahil kalikasa’y sadyang may pang-akit.

Masdan ang araw kapag sumisikat

Sa pisngi ng lagit tila nagniningas;

Sabog na biyaya animo’y busilak,

Lalo’t tumatama sa maamong gubat.

Ngunit ano ngayon ang napagsapit na,

Ng saganang gubat na dati’y kayganda?

Mga ibo’t hayop na dati’y masaya,

Walang masilungan, di alam ang punta!

Mataas na kahoy kanilang pinutol,

Sinra pa nila ang luntiang dahon;

Damong makukulay pati ay pinupol,

At inabuso rin bundok, mga burol.

Ang mga kulisap, mga kaparangan,

Pati mga hiyas nitong kabundukan;

Ang biyayang bigay nitong kalikasan,

Ay ubos nang lahat kaydaling naparam!

Ganda nitong gubat sa mata’y nawaglit,

Winasak . . . Winasak at sinirang pilit;

Mga kabundukang dati ngang matarik,

Giniba’t sinira ng kung sinong lintik!

Puno, damo, baging, mga kaparangan,

Ngayon ay wala na, wala na’yong yaman;

Ang dating panahon, mga kalikasan,


Wari’y nalulungkot parang namatayan!

May lungkot sa puso ang mga bukirin,

Ang saganang gubat at nahihilahil;

Ilog, sapa’t batis tila ba’y nanimdim

Sa napagsapit na hirap at tiisin.

Tayo kayang tao’y di na magbabago,

Hidi na titigil sa pang-aabuso;

Hindi na hihinto paglikha ng gulo,

Di na mananawa sa gawaing ganito?

Pagdating ng araw tayo’y magsisisi,

Kapagka naranasan ang sigwa at peste;

Ng baha at lindol at sakunang grabe,

Ang pinsalang dulot sa atin ang ganti!

Habang may panahon tayo ay mag-isip,

Abuso sa gubat ay iwasang pilit;

Tayo’y magbago na sa gawaing ganid,

Gawang di mabuti’y sama ang kapalit

PANULAAN

Ang panulaan o tula ay isang uri ng sining at panitikan na kilala sa malayang paggamit ng wika sa iba't

Ang epiko ay mahabang tula na inaawit o binibigkas. Nauukol ito sa kababalaghan at pagtatagumpay ng
pangunahing tauhan laban sa mga panganib at hamong kanyang natatanggap. Ang mga nagsulat nito ay
naglayong gamitin ito sa ritwal. Ang Biag ni Lam-ang (Buhay ni Lam-ang) ay isang halimbawa ng epiko.
Isinulat ito ni Pedro Bukaneg ng taga-Abra. Ito ay kilala bilang pinakamatandang epikong naitala.
Nakasulat ito sa salitang Iloko at tungkol sa mga pambihirang pakikipagsapalaran ni Lam-ang, ang
pangunahing tauhan ng epiko. Si Lam-ang daw ay binigyan ng di-pangkaraniwang lakas at pananalita
nang ipinanganak. Isa pang halimbawa ng epiko ay ang tungkol sa Ifugao na si Hudhud. Ang epikong ito
ay kinakanta tuwing may importanteng mga kasayahan, katulad ng anihan at pagtatanim.

Ang mga paksa sa awit at korido ay tungkol sa pagkamaginoo at pakikipagsapalaran ng mga


pangunahing tauhang mga reyna’t hari, prinsesa’t prinsipe. Ang awit ay may 12 ang sukat ng pantig,
habang ang korido naman ay may 10 ang sukat. Ang

Florante at Laura ay isang halimbawa ng awit, at ang mga sumusunod ay halimbawa ng korido: Ang
Ibong Adarna , at Buhay na Pinagdaanan ni Donya Mariang Asawa ng Ahas .

Pambansang Awit ng Pilipinas. Iba pang halimbawa ay ang Leron, Leron Sinta, Dalagang Pilipina, Bahay
Kubo at ang Paruparong Bukid.

2. Soneto – ang tulang ito ay tungkol sa damdamin at kaisipan. Ito ay may 14 na taludtod. Dito ay may
mapupulot na aral ang mambabasa. Ang halimbawa ng soneto ay ang Sonnet on Worker’s Rights ni

1. Komedya – ang layunin nito ay gawing kawili-wili ang panonood sa pamamagitan ng mga ginagawa ng
pangunahing tauhan. Ang wakas nito ay masaya. Ang kaguluhan sa bandang simula ay naaayos. Ang
pagkakasundosundo ng mga tauhan ang nakapagpapasaya sa mga nanonood. Isang halimbawa ng
komedya na isinulat ni Juan Crisostomo Soto (o Crissot), na tinaguriang “Ama ng Panitikang
Kapampangan” ay ang komedyang Kiki-Riki, isang komedyang nakasulat sa Kapampangan at may isang
yugto.

tulang patnigan:

Karagatan - ang tulang ito ay ginagamit sa laro. Kadalasan itong ginaganap sa namatayan o may lamay at
may matandang tutula ukol sa paksa ng laro. Mayroon tabong papaikutin, at kung saan matatapat ang
hawakan ng tabo ay syang sasagot sa tanong ng isang dalaga na may matalinhagang bugtong at
matalinhagang sasagot ang binata. Ito ay nagmula sa isang alamat ng isang prinsesa na nahulugan ng
singsing habang siya'y naglalakbay sa karagatan . Kung sino man ang makakita ng singsing ay siyang
mapapakasalan ng prinsesa.

Duplo - ito ang pumalit sa karagatan. Labanan ito ng pagalingan sa pagbigkas at pagbibigay katwiran
nang patula. Ang mga pagbigkas ay galing sa mga kasabihan, salawikain at Bibliya. Ito ay madalas laruin
tuwing may lamay sa patay.

Balagtasan- ang balagtasan naman ang pumalit sa duplo. Ito ay debate na binibigkas nang patula.
Ipinangalan ito sa tanyag na manunulat na si Francisco "Balagtas" Baltazar"Ang Ama ng Balagtasan".
Pinatanyag ito ng "Hari ng Balagtasan" na si Jose Corazon de Jesus (Huseng Batute).

Batutian - ay isang uri ng tulang patnigan na hinango sa balagtasan. Ipinangalan ito sa kinikilalang "
Unang Hari ng Balagtasan", si Jose Corazon de Jesus (Huseng Batute). ginagawa ito sa mga lamayan

DESTRUCTIVE FISHING TECHNIQUES

Muro-ami fishing - employed on coral reefs in Southeast Asia, uses an encircling net together with
pounding devices. These devices usually comprise large stones fitted on ropes that are pounded into the
coral reefs.

Cyanide fishing - is a method of collecting live fish mainly for use in aquariums , which involves spraying
a sodium cyanide mixture into the desired fish's habitat in order to stun the fish. The practice hurts not
only the target population, but also many other marine organisms, including coral and coral reefs .

Ref Overfishing - is defined as catching more fish than the system can support.

Bottom Trawling - rockhopper trawls with large wheels or rollers are used to make fishing more efficient,
but too often are used in vulnerable reef areas. The trawls crush, scar, and destroy coral reefs, leaving
little more than a trail of rubble in their wake.

Solution - is a homogeneous mixture of two or more components. The dissolving agent is the solvent.
The substance that is dissolved is the solute. The components of a solution are atoms, ions, or
molecules, making them 10 m or smaller in diameter.

Example: Sugar and water

Suspensions - the particles in suspensions are larger than those found in solutions. Components of a
suspension can be evenly distributed by mechanical means, like by shaking the contents but the
components will eventually settle out.

Example: Oil and water

Colloids - particles intermediate in size between those found in solutions and suspensions can be mixed
in such a way that they remain evenly distributed without settling out. The mixture they form is called a
colloidal dispersion . A colloidal dispersion consists of colloids in a dispersing medium.

Example: Milk

Other Dispersions

Liquids, solids, and gasses all may be mixed to form colloidal dispersions.

Aerosols: Solid or liquid particles in a gas


Examples: Smoke is solid in a gas. Fog is a liquid in a gas.

Sols : Solid particles in a liquid

Example: Milk of Magnesia is a sol with solid magnesium hydroxide in water.

Emulsions : Liquid particles in a liquid

Example: Mayonnaise is oil in water .

Gels: Liquids in solid

Examples: Gelatin is protein in water. Quicksand is sand in water.

Deep vein thrombosis - occurs when a blood clot (thrombus) forms in one or more of the deep veins in
your body, usually in your legs. Deep vein thrombosis can cause leg pain or swelling, but also can occur
with no symptoms. It can develop if you have certain medical conditions that affect how your blood
clots. It can also happen if you don't move for a long time, such as after surgery or an accident, or when

VITAMINS

Vitamin A is a fat-soluble nutrient. It helps your body form healthy teeth, bones, soft tissues, and skin. It
can also help you ward off bacterial and viral infections, prevent night blindness, and keep your hair and
nails healthy.
Foods that are particularly high in vitamin A include: carrots, sweet potatoes, winter squash, cantaloupe,
apricots, spinach, kale, and collard greens

Some spices are also high in vitamin A, including paprika, red pepper, cayenne, and chili powder.

Vitamins B-6, B-12, and B-9 are essential for proper nerve function, the synthesis of DNA, and the
formation of red blood cells in your body. They also help maintain your brain function , prevent anemia ,
and support metabolism.

Foods that are particularly high in vitamins B-6 and B-12 include: meat, poultry, and fish, seafood
including mussels and oysters, eggs, milk

Foods that are particularly high in B-9, or folic acid, include leafy green vegetables and poultry. Some
breakfast cereals, fruit juices, and other products are fortified with folic acid.

Vitamin C is also known as ascorbic acid. It’s a powerful antioxidant that helps protect the health of your
cells. It improves your body’s iron absorption. It’s also important for promoting healthy teeth and gums,
healing wounds, and helping you resist infection.

Foods that are particularly high in vitamin C include: papaya, citrus fruits, strawberries, bell peppers,
broccoli, Brussels sprouts, dark leafy greens, such as kale, mustard greens, and chard

Vitamin D is a unique vitamin. On top of absorbing it from foods you eat, your body can also synthesize
it from sunlight. It’s critical for the health of your bones and immune system, as well as calcium
absorption. According to the National Cancer Institute , it may also help lower your risk of developing
colorectal cancer .

Though sunshine is by far the richest source of vitamin D, foods that also provide vitamin D include:
some seafood, such as salmon, herring, catfish, trout, and oysters, milk, eggs, shiitake mushrooms

Like vitamin C, vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant. It helps protects your cells from damage. It also helps
your body use vitamin K and repair muscle cells.

Foods that are particularly high in vitamin E include: sunflower seeds and almonds, spinach, Swiss chard,
and turnip greens, bell peppers, asparagus

Vitamin K is critical for your body’s formation of blood clots. Without it, you could bleed to death from a
simple cut. It may also help maintain bone strength in older adults.

Foods that are particularly high in vitamin K include: kale, spinach, collard greens, Swiss chard, turnip
greens, and mustard greens, romaine lettuce, parsley, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, asparagus
Species - a group of living organisms consisting of similar individuals capable of exchanging genes or
interbreeding.

Community - also called biological community, in biology, an interacting group of various species in a
common location.

Community ecology - study of the organization and functioning of communities, which are assemblages
of interacting populations of the species living within a particular area or habitat.

Ecosystem - community of interacting organisms and their physical environment.

PLANT TROPISMS

Phototropism is the directional growth of an organism in response to light.

Growth toward light, or positive tropism is demonstrated in many vascular plant, such as angiosperms,
gymnosperms, and ferns. Stems in these plants exhibit positive phototropism and grow in the direction
of a light source.

Plant stems and leaves demonstrate positive phototropism , while roots (mostly influenced by gravity)
tend to demonstrate negative phototropism.

Heliotropism is a type of phototropism in which certain plant structures, typically stems and flowers,
follow the path of the sun from east to west as it moves across the sky.

Thigmotropism describes plant growth in response to touch or contact with a solid object. Positive
thigmostropism is demonstrated by climbing plants or vines, which have specialized structures called
tendrils. A tendril is a thread-like appendage used for twinning around solid structures. While tendrils
demonstrate positive thigmotropism, roots can exhibit negative thigmotropism at times. As roots extend
into the ground, they often grow in the direction away from an object.

Gravitropism or geotropism is growth in response to gravity. Gravitropism is very important in plants as


it directs root growth toward the pull of gravity (positive gravitropism) and stem growth in the opposite
direction (negative gravitropism).

Hydrotropism is directional growth in response to water concentrations. This tropism is important in


plants for protection against drought conditions through positive hydrotropism and against water over-
saturation through negative hydrotropism.

Thermotropism is growth or movement in response to heat or temperature changes.

Chemotropism is growth in response to chemicals.


A landslide is the movement of rock, earth, or debris down a sloped section of land.

Global warming is the long-term rise in the average temperature of the Earth's climate system.

The greenhouse effect is the process by which radiation from a planet's atmosphere warms the planet's
surface to a temperature above what it would be without this atmosphere.

A greenhouse gas is a gas that absorbs and emits radiant energy within the thermal infrared range. The
primary greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere are water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous
oxide and ozone.

Homeostatic - a machine that regulates room temperature. At the centre of a thermostat is a bimetallic
strip that responds to temperature changes.

Pacemaker - is a small device that's placed under the skin in your chest to help control your heartbeat.

Haemoscope - An instrument for regulating and measuring the thickness of a layer of blood for
spectroscopic examination.

Hemodialyzer - or artificial kidney, is used to filter fluids and wastes from a dialysis patient's blood.

Tropical cyclone - also called typhoon or hurricane, an intense circular storm that originates over warm
tropical oceans and is characterized by low atmospheric pressure, high winds, and heavy rain.

Meteoroids are objects in space that range in size from dust grains to small asteroids. Think of them as
“space rocks."

When meteoroids enter Earth’s atmosphere (or that of another planet, like Mars) at high speed and
burn up, the fireballs or “shooting stars” are called meteors .

When a meteoroid survives a trip through the atmosphere and hits the ground, it’s called a meteorite.

Comets are often referred to as "dirty snowballs." They are left over from the formation of stars and
planets billions of years ago.

into two or more distinct parts each of which becomes dominant and controls behavior from time to
time to the exclusion of the other parts. A modern name for this condition is dissociative identity
disorder.

Cognitive dissonance (Leon Festinger) is the mental discomfort experienced by a person who holds two

Nonpathogenic: Incapable of causing disease. For example, nonpathogenic E. coli are E. coli bacteria
that do not cause disease, but instead live naturally in the large intestine.

Solutes are the particles that are dissolved in a solvent, and together they form a solution. In your
body, these solutes are ions like sodium and potassium. There are three types of solutions that can
occur in your body based on solute concentration: isotonic, hypotonic, and hypertonic. An isotonic
solution is one in which the concentration of solutes is the same both inside and outside of the cell. A
hypotonic solution is one in which the concentration of solutes is greater inside the cell than outside
of it, and a hypertonic solution is one where the concentration of solutes is greater outside the cell
than inside it.

Swell - happens when the cell is in hypotonic solution.

Shrink - happens when the cell is in hypertonic solution.

Myosin filaments play two key roles in muscle contraction and cell motility.

Microfilament functions include cytokinesis, amoeboid movement and cell motility in general,
changes in cell shape, endocytosis and exocytosis, cell contractility and mechanical stability.

Pseudopods/pseudifilament have two main functions: locomotion and capture of prey or engulfing of
food.

Auxins and Gibberellins are growth hormones that stimulate cell elongation and cause plants to grow
taller.

Cytokinins are a group of hormones that promote cell division in plant roots and shoots and the
growth of buds.
Abscisic acid (ABA) is a plant hormone. ABA functions in many plant developmental processes,
including seed and bud dormancy, the control of organ size and stomatal closure.

Kolokyal - pinaikling mga salita. Aywan-ewan, nasaan-nasan

Parameter-gives numerical value of population

Convection - Heat energy is transferred from hot place to cool place.

When the warm air and cool air converge, it forms/causes stormy weather.

Thyroxine plays a crucial role in heart and digestive function, metabolism, brain development, bone
health, and muscle control. It affects almost all of the body's systems, which means proper thyroxine
levels are vital for health.

Lack of thyroxin will cause a person to be mentally retarded.

Epiphyte, also called air plant, any plant that grows upon another plant or object merely for physical
support.

Saprophyte - a plant, fungus, or microorganism that lives on dead or decaying organic matter.

makakatakas sa predators, most likely, they can continue produce offspring of their likes.

Parts of flower

1. Pistil - is considered the “female” part of a flower because it produces seeds. Its purpose is
reproduction. It’s made up of the following parts:

Stigma - is the upper part of the pistil. It receives the pollen to affect reproduction.

Style - is the long part of the pistil. It provides a place for the pollen tube to grow. It also acts as a barrier
for bad pollen.

Pollen Tube - is a part of the pistil that is located inside of the style. It enables the pollen to go from the
stigma through the style to the ovary.

Ovary - is the enlarged part of the pistil located at the end of the style. The ovary is designed to protect
the ovules. It’s the job of the ovules to fertilize the pollen to grow it into a seed.
In flowering plants that produce fruit, the ovary usually develops into the fleshy fruit that surrounds the
inner seed.

Ovule - is located inside of the ovary. Basically, these are the flower’s eggs.

The pollen will travel from the stigma through the style to the ovary. Once in the ovary, the pollen will
then fertilize the ovules.

This fertilization ensures the ovule will eventually develop into a seed. In some plants, only a seed will be
grown. In other plants, a seed and a fleshy fruit will be grown simultaneously.

2. Petal - is the colored part of the flower that gives it a unique shape. Petals are often brightly colored
to attract insects, birds, bees, and other animals. In this way, the petals aid with the pollination of the
plant.

3. Stamen - is considered the “male” part of a flower because it produces the pollen. Its job is
reproduction.

Anther - is located on the end of the filament. It’s usually fairly compact and is where the pollen is
created.

Filament - is the long narrow part of the stamen that supports the anther. It connects the anther to the
rest of the flower.

4. Leaf - is the part of the flower responsible for making food for the process of photosynthesis. Carbon
dioxide, water, and light are turned into glucose.

5. Stem - is the part of the flower that attaches it to the rest of the plant. It also supports the rest of the
flower.

In addition to supporting the flower, the stem enables water and nutrients to flow from the soil into the
leaf for the process of photosynthesis to take place.

A flower’s stem is made up of the following parts:

Xylem - The part of the stem that moves food to the rest of the plant is called the xylem.

Phloem - The part of the stem that moves water to the rest of the plant is called the phloem.

Cambium - The cambium is located inside of the stem and provides a continuous cylinder. It enables the
food and water to be transported to the rest of the plant together.
Vascular Bundles (Dichotomous Plant) - The vascular bundles of the stem are the groupings of the xylem
cells, phloem cells, and cambium. They only occur in dichotomous plants.

6. Receptacle - is where the stem connects to the rest of the flower. It provides support to the rest of
the flower.

7. Sepal - These are leaf-like structures attached to the outside of the flower. They’re very similar to
petals but with the function of enclosing the developing bud. Some sepals are green while others look
similar to the flower’s petals.

Boron - green gas

Krypton - colorless, odorless gas

Radon - yellow

Chlorine - yellow green

Strontium - metals hat gives brilliance to fireworks

Saturated solution is a solution in which no more solute can be dissolved in the solvent.

Saturated solution: A solution that contains the maximum amount of solute that is capable of being
dissolved.

Unsaturated solution: A solution that contains less than the maximum amount of solute that is capable
of being dissolved.

Groups/Families - the vertical columns on the periodic table. All the members of a family of elements
have the same number of valence electrons and similar chemical properties.

Neutron - determines the isotope of an element

Lamarck’s theory of evolution was based around how organisms (e.g. animals, plants) change during
their lifetime, and then pass these changes onto their offspring. For example, Lamarck believes that the
giraffe had a long neck because its neck grew longer during its lifetime, as it stretched to reach leaves in
high-up trees, meaning that each generation of giraffe had a longer neck than previous generations.

NCBTS National Competency -Based Teacher Standards - heart of TEPD (Teacher Education and
Development Program)

NCBTS - composed of 7 domains, 23 strands, and 80 performance indicators

Domain 1. Social Regard for Learning (SRFL)

The SRFL domain focuses on the ideal that teachers serve as positive and pjowerful role models of the
value in the pursuit of different efforts to learn. The teacher’s action, statements, and different types of
social interactions with students exemplify this ideal.

Domain 2. Learning Environment (LE)

This domain focuses on importance of providing a social, psychological and physical environment within
which all students, regardless of their individual differences in learning, can engage in the different
learning activities and work towards attaining high standards of learning

Domain 3. Diversity of Learners (DOL)

The DOL domain emphasizes the ideal that teachers can facilitate the learning process even with diverse
learners, by recognizing and respecting individual differences and by using knowledge about their
differences to design diverse sets of learning activities to ensure that all learners can attain the desired
learning goals.

Domain 4. Curriculum (Curr.)

The curriculum domain refers to all elements of the teaching-learning process that work in convergence
to help students understand the curricular goals and objectives, and to attain high standards of learning
defined in the curriculum. These elements include the teacher’s knowledge of subject matter and the
learning process, teaching-learning approaches and activities, instructional materials and learning
resources.

Domain 5. Planning, Assessing & Reporting (PAR)

This domain refers to the alignment of assessment and planning activities. In particular, the PAR focuses
on the (1) use of assessment data to plan and revise teaching-learning plans; (2) integration of
assessment procedures in the plan and implementation of teaching-learning activities, and (3) reporting
of the learners’ actual achievement and behavior.

Domain 6. Community Linkages (CL)

The LC domain refers to the ideal that classroom activities are meaningfully linked to the experiences
and aspirations of the learners in their homes and communities. Thus, this domain focuses on teachers’
efforts directed at strengthening the links between schools and communities to help in the attainment
of the curricular goals.
