SUBSTANCE ABUSE
Substance abuse refers to the harmful or hazardous use of psychoactive substances, including alcohol and illicit drugs. Psychoactive substance use can lead to dependence syndrome - a cluster of behavioural, cognitive, and physiological phenomena that develop after repeated substance use and that typically include a strong desire to take the drug, difficulties in controlling its use, persisting in its use despite harmful consequences, a higher priority given to drug use than to other activities and obligations, increased tolerance, and sometimes a physical withdrawal state.
Policies which influence the levels and patterns of substance use and related harm can significantly reduce the public health problems attributable to substance use, and interventions at the health care system level can work towards the restoration of health in affected individuals.
The term "substance abuse" is more inclusive than drug abuse and is used
to cover the abuse of all substances, whether they are drugs or not. Substances which are abused are sugar and soft drinks.
CAUSES OF SUBSTANCE ABUSE
Some of the causes of substance abuse are:
CURIOSITY: some young people start taking drugs as a result of a desire to find out how it feels to take drugs. Curiosity leads them to experiment. From repeated experiments, they become drug abusers.
LACK OF SELF CONFIDENCE: young people take drugs to boost their self confidence and eventually lead to habitual taking of the drug.
TRYING TO FIT IN A PEER GROUP: young people like to do what other persons of their age group do.
SEARCH FOR EXCITEMENT: some people take drugs because it feels good and give them some excitement.

WEEK 2
TOPIC: DISEASE PREVENTION
CONTENT
1. Water borne diseases and Sources of clean water
2. Water treatment processes
3. Immunization against human diseases
SUB-TOPIC 1: WATER BORNE DISEASES
Diseases caused by unclean (dirty) water are called water borne diseases. The following are some of the water borne diseases.
1. CHOLERA: It is caused by harmful bacteria that inflame the intestine and cause extreme diarrhea. Cholera is the most common diseases that can be contacted by drinking unclean water.
The symptom of cholera is frequent stooling with vomiting which lead to dehydration. Cholera can be prevented by boiling water before drinking.
2. DYSENTRY: It can be caused by a one-celled animal called Amoeba or by certain bacteria.
3. DIARRHOEA: the symptom of diarrhea is frequent stooling which leads to dehydration, abdominal pains, bloating of the belly, feverish conditions and cramps. To prevent diarrhea, the food we eat and our drinking water should be hygienic.
4. TYPHOID: It is caused by bacteria called salmolena typhi. Symptoms of typhoid fever manifest within three weeks of infection.
Symptoms include feeling cold, serious headache, running stomach,
Constipation, enlarged liver and spleen and high fever. Typhoid fever could be prevented by boiling water before drinking, hygienic handling of food and being immunized against the diseases.
SOURCES OF CLEAN WATER.
1 Pipe-borne water
2 Spring water.
3 Rain water
4 Deep well water
EVALUATION
Mention three water borne diseases.
List the sources of clean water.
SUB-TOPIC: 2: WATER TREATMENT PROCESSES
FILTERATION: - This is the process of removing impurities i.e. mud, soil, leaves from water. Filter paper is used in the laboratory while filter beds are used at water co-operations.
CHLORINATION: - Chlorine gas is added to water to kill bacteria. It is harmless to human beings. It is also used to purify the water in swimming pools.
DISTILLATION: - This is a process of obtaining pure water from impure water by using an apparatus called Lie Bib Condenser.
DESALINATION: - This is the process of taking away salt from sea water. FLOCCULATION: This is the dissolution and stirring of alum in water to make tiny solid particles suspended in water to stick together (flocculate).
ADVANTAGES OF USING PIPE-BORNE WATER
1. It is clean and colourless.
2. It is odourless.
3. it is tasteless.
4. It is conveniently available in the home.
5. It is treated to kill disease-causing living organisms.
6. Suspended matter has been removed.
SUB-TOPIC 3: IMMUNIZATION AGAINST HUMAN DISEASES
Immunization is a method of stimulating resistance against specific diseases in the human body using microorganisms (bacteria or viruses) that have been modified or killed. It is also called vaccination or inoculation. The system in the body that keeps disease-causing organisms from entering our body is called Immune system. Immunization of the child begins during pregnancy. The deadly diseases that require immunization are Polio, chickenpox, Pneumonia, measles, whooping cough, hepatitis, malaria, tuberculosis, cholera, tetanus diphtheria etc.
Where to get immunization is a reputable hospital e. g government hospital around you.

3. DIARRHOEA: the symptom of diarrhea is frequent stooling which leads to dehydration, abdominal pains, bloating of the belly, feverish conditions and cramps. To prevent diarrhea, the food we eat and our drinking water should be hygienic.
4. TYPHOID: It is caused by bacteria called salmolena typhi. Symptoms of typhoid fever manifest within three weeks of infection.
Symptoms include feeling cold, serious headache, running stomach,
Constipation, enlarged liver and spleen and high fever. Typhoid fever could be prevented by boiling water before drinking, hygienic handling of food and being immunized against the diseases.

2 Spring water.
3 Rain water
4 Deep well water
EVALUATION
Mention three water borne diseases.
List the sources of clean water.
SUB-TOPIC: 2: WATER TREATMENT PROCESSES
FILTERATION: - This is the process of removing impurities i.e. mud, soil, leaves from water. Filter paper is used in the laboratory while filter beds are used at water co-operations.
CHLORINATION: - Chlorine gas is added to water to kill bacteria. It is harmless to human beings. It is also used to purify the water in swimming pools.
DISTILLATION: - This is a process of obtaining pure water from impure water by using an apparatus called Lie Bib Condenser.
DESALINATION: - This is the process of taking away salt from sea water. FLOCCULATION: This is the dissolution and stirring of alum in water to make tiny solid particles suspended in water to stick together (flocculate).
ADVANTAGES OF USING PIPE-BORNE WATER
1. It is clean and colourless.

SUB-TOPIC 3: IMMUNIZATION AGAINST HUMAN DISEASES
Immunization is a method of stimulating resistance against specific diseases in the human body using microorganisms (bacteria or viruses) that have been modified or killed. It is also called vaccination or inoculation. The system in the body that keeps disease-causing organisms from entering our body is called Immune system. Immunization of the child begins during pregnancy. The deadly diseases that require immunization are Polio, chickenpox, Pneumonia, measles, whooping cough, hepatitis, malaria, tuberculosis, cholera, tetanus diphtheria etc.
Where to get immunization is a reputable hospital e. g government hospital around you.

CONTENTS
1. Definition of STI’s HIV\AIDS
2. Signs of HIV/AIDS and how it can be transfered.
3. How to prevent HIV/AIDS
SUB-TOPIC 1: DEFINITION OF STI’S HIV\AIDS.
STI’S means sexually transmitted infections. These are diseases that can be contracted through sexual activities. Examples include gonorrhea, syphilis, herpes, Chlamydia, Candida infections and HIV and AIDS.
HIV-AIDS : Aids is a very dangerous disease. The full meaning of AIDS is Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. An aid is caused by a virus called Human Immune deficiency Virus (HIV). HIV-AIDS has no cure yet. Human body has an Immune defense system which protects our bodies against attacks from diseases. The virus (HIV) damages this Immune defense system.
When the virus is in the body; it is said to be HIV positive and that is what develops to HIV-AIDS. When this happens, the person’s body will not be able to fight any other diseases (such as fever, cough, tuberculosis, pneumonia etc) that attack person. The person will die after some time. HIV-AIDS can affect anybody no matter the age.
SAFE AGE FOR REPRODUCTION
The safe age for reproduction is when somebody is fully matured and ready to take responsibilities. You have to answer the following questions
1. Are you matured enough, physically, socially and emotionally?
2. Have you finished schooling?
3. Do you have a good job to take care of the family you are about to start raising up?

There are some signs/ symptoms of HIV but positively infected person may or may not experience signs or illness immediately. It may take months and even five years before the person feels ill.
SIGNS OF AIDS
1. Unexpected weight loss
2. Getting tired easily
3. Fever that is lasting more than one month.
4. Diarrhea which is longer than one man
5. Cold sores (wounds) all over the body
6. Swollen glands at two or more places on the body for more than three months
7. Coughing
8. Sweating profusely.
HOW TO DETECT HIV
It can only be detected through blood test. It does not show in face or body, until it develops into AIDS. It can be passed from man to woman or woman to man.
WAYS THROUGH WHICH AIDS CAN BE TRANSFERRED
I. Through sexual intercourse
II. Transfusion of unscreened blood
III. Contaminated injection needles and syringes, razor blades, knife and other sharp objects.
IV. Through contaminated instrument during ear piercing, circumcision and putting of
tribal marks
V. Pregnant mothers to unborn babies

WEEK 5
TOPIC: DESCRIPTION OF ECLIPSE, CLIMATE AND SEASONS.
CONTENT:
1. Eclipse
2. Climate and the Seasons.
SUB-TOPIC 1: ECLIPSE
Sun is a large luminous body from which light shines on to the earth and the moon. Because of the movement of the earth and the moon, it is possible for one to shield (Eclipse) the other from the sun. Therefore, Eclipse is darkening of the Sun in the middle of the day .
TYPES OF ECLIPSE
There are three types of eclipse
1. AN ECLIPSE OF THE MOON: This is formed when the earth comes between the sun and the moon; the moon is in the shadow of the earth.
2. AN ECLIPSE OF THE SUN: This is formed when the moon passes between the earth and the sun, the shadow of the moon falls on parts of the earth.
3. ANNULAR ECLIPSE: A time when the moon is so far away from the earth that no region of total shadow falls on the earth. The moon is then observed against the circular sun.
EVALUATION
1. What is eclipse of the moon?
2. Explain the eclipse of the sun
TOPIC: Description of eclipse
SPECIFIC TOPIC: Eclipse of the sun
REFERENCE BOOKS: Basic Science for J.s.s 1 by Ndu et al

OBJECTIVES: At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to:
(i)define eclipse
(ii)describe the eclipse of the sun
CONTENT:
DESCRIPTION OF ECLIPSE, CLIMATE AND SEASONS
An Eclipse is the total or partial disappearance from view of a heavenly body, as a result of another heavenly body coming between that heavenly body and the observer. It is a natural event and does not signify that some evil is about to occur in the world. Eclipses are caused by the revolutions of the earth and the moon.
ECLIPSE OF THE SUN
The earth is a planet that revolves round the sun. The moon is a satellite of the earth that revolves round the earth. Neither the earth nor the moon produces its own light. Both of them receive light from the sun. If during the revolutions of the earth and moon, the moon comes between the sun and the earth, the moon will block out the light of the sun from reaching the earth, persons on earth or in all parts of it, will not see the sun for a short time.
The earth will become dark for some time during the day, until the moon again moves out of that position.

SEASONS OF THE YEAR
The revolution of the earth round the sun causes the occurrence of the seasons. When the earth is in a particular part of the orbit round the sun, an area of the earth such as Europe will have much sunshine and warmth. It will then be summer in Europe. The part of the earth on the opposite side of the Europe may then have a cold season. These differences bring about the seasons.
In the northern and southern zones of the world, there are four seasons namely: summer, autumn, winter and spring. In West Africa, there are only two seasons, the rainy season and the dry season.

SPECIFIC TOPIC: Movements of the Earth
OBJECTIVES: At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to:
(i)describe the sun
(ii)mention the two movements of the earth
(iii)differentiate between rotation and revolution
CONTENT:
THE SUN
The sun is a star at the centre of our solar system. It is a very large sphere which is many times larger than the size of the earth. The sun is made up of gases which are continuously reacting with one another. This reaction produces a very large amount of heat and light. The heat and light are radiated to the planets.
The sun is therefore the source of heat each planet has. The sun is many times hotter than the black smith's fire. The warmth from the sun keeps animals and plants alive and prevents them from dying of cold.
The Sun dominates the sky whenever it is visible. Without the Sun, there would be no life on Earth.
http://kids.nineplanets.org/portfoli.htm
MOVEMENTS OF THE EARTH
The earth carries out two types of movements, these are:
1. ROTATION: the earth rotates on its axis and completes one rotation in 24hours, that is a day. An apparatus called the globe is used to illustrate this rotation.
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkWyM-M8o0c[/youtube]
2. REVOLUTION: this is movement along a path round the sun. One complete revolution of the earth around the sun takes a year. The revolution of the earth round the sun causes the occurrence of the seasons. As the earth moves along its orbit round the sun, all parts of the earth do not receive the same amount of sunshine at the same time.

SPECIFIC TOPIC: Rotation and revolution of the moon
OBJECTIVES: At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to:
(i)describe the moon
(ii)describe the eclipse of the moon
CONTENT:
ROTATION AND REVOLUTION OF THE MOON
The moon is a satellite (an object put into orbit around earth in order to relay communications signal).This means that it is a natural body that revolves round the earth. The moon is smaller in size than the earth. The surface of the moon is uneven, there are hills and valleys (craters) and there is no air in the moon, neither is life. The shape of the moon varies from new moon to full moon as shown in the diagram below.
As the earth revolves round the sun the moon revolves round the earth, a time comes when the earth is located between the sun and the moon. The earth blocks the rays of light that pass from the sun to the moon. The shadow of the earth is cast on the moon so that for some time (usually a few minutes) the moon cannot be seen by observers on earth.

DESCRIPTION OF ECLIPSE, CLIMATE AND SEASONS
An Eclipse is the total or partial disappearance from view of a heavenly body, as a result of another heavenly body coming between that heavenly body and the observer. It is a natural event and does not signify that some evil is about to occur in the world. Eclipses are caused by the revolutions of the earth and the moon.
ECLIPSE OF THE SUN
The earth is a planet that revolves round the sun. The moon is a satellite of the earth that revolves round the earth. Neither the earth nor the moon produces its own light. Both of them receive light from the sun. If during the revolutions of the earth and moon, the moon comes between the sun and the earth, the moon will block out the light of the sun from reaching the earth, persons on earth or in all parts of it, will not see the sun for a short time.
The earth will become dark for some time during the day, until the moon again moves out of that position.

OBJECTIVES: At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to:
(i)mention the cause of the seasons
(ii)describe the seasons in Europe
(iii)mention the seasons in West Africa
CONTENT:
SEASONS OF THE YEAR
The revolution of the earth round the sun causes the occurrence of the seasons. When the earth is in a particular part of the orbit round the sun, an area of the earth such as Europe will have much sunshine and warmth. It will then be summer in Europe. The part of the earth on the opposite side of the Europe may then have a cold season. These differences bring about the seasons.
In the northern and southern zones of the world, there are four seasons namely: summer, autumn, winter and spring. In West Africa, there are only two seasons, the rainy season and the dry season.

This is the average condition of the weather of a place over a long period of time. Elements of climate are:
1. Rainfall
2. Temperature
3. Wind
4. Ice
THE SEASONS
The revolving of the earth about the sun causes the season. The time it takes to go once round the sun is a year (365 ¼ days)
TYPES OF SEASONS
Autum, winter, spring and summer. These four seasons are not well pronounced in the tropics. However, we have the rainy and dry seasons as it is in Nigeria.

SPECIFIC TOPIC: Movements of the Earth
OBJECTIVES: At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to:
(i)describe the sun
(ii)mention the two movements of the earth
(iii)differentiate between rotation and revolution
CONTENT:
THE SUN
The sun is a star at the centre of our solar system. It is a very large sphere which is many times larger than the size of the earth. The sun is made up of gases which are continuously reacting with one another. This reaction produces a very large amount of heat and light. The heat and light are radiated to the planets.
The sun is therefore the source of heat each planet has. The sun is many times hotter than the black smith's fire. The warmth from the sun keeps animals and plants alive and prevents them from dying of cold.
The Sun dominates the sky whenever it is visible. Without the Sun, there would be no life on Earth.
http://kids.nineplanets.org/portfoli.htm
MOVEMENTS OF THE EARTH
The earth carries out two types of movements, these are:
1. ROTATION: the earth rotates on its axis and completes one rotation in 24hours, that is a day. An apparatus called the globe is used to illustrate this rotation.
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkWyM-M8o0c[/youtube]
2. REVOLUTION: this is movement along a path round the sun. One complete revolution of the earth around the sun takes a year. The revolution of the earth round the sun causes the occurrence of the seasons. As the earth moves along its orbit round the sun, all parts of the earth do not receive the same amount of sunshine at the same time.

SPECIFIC TOPIC: Rotation and revolution of the moon
OBJECTIVES: At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to:
(i)describe the moon
(ii)describe the eclipse of the moon
CONTENT:
ROTATION AND REVOLUTION OF THE MOON
The moon is a satellite (an object put into orbit around earth in order to relay communications signal).This means that it is a natural body that revolves round the earth. The moon is smaller in size than the earth. The surface of the moon is uneven, there are hills and valleys (craters) and there is no air in the moon, neither is life. The shape of the moon varies from new moon to full moon as shown in the diagram below.
As the earth revolves round the sun the moon revolves round the earth, a time comes when the earth is located between the sun and the moon. The earth blocks the rays of light that pass from the sun to the moon. The shadow of the earth is cast on the moon so that for some time (usually a few minutes) the moon cannot be seen by observers on earth.
Different shapes of the moon

WEEK 6
TOPIC: MATTER
CONTENT: 1. Meaning of matter
2. Identification of matter.
SUB-TOPIC 1: MEANING OF MATTER
Matter is anything in nature that has mass and occupies space. Stone, paper, plant, air, water, rubber etc. are made up of matter. Matter is made up of small particles called atoms.
Matter can go from solid to liquid to gas. You can change a material’s state of matter by changing its temperature or pressure. You can make something hotter or colder. You can squeeze the molecules more tightly together.
EVALUATION
1. What is a matter?
2. Explain an experiment to show that particles move from one end to another
[youtube]https://youtu.be/uYYEX5v5a9A[/youtube]
SUB-TOPIC 2: IDENTIFICATION OF MATTER
Matter comes in different forms. Matter can be solid like steaks and wood. It can be a gas like air. It can be a liquid like milk. Scientists call solids, liquids, and gases the ordinary “states of matter”.
Matter is made of tiny bits called molecules. How these molecules line up and move around is what makes solids, liquids, and gases.
Molecules in solids are packed tightly together and do not move around much. They give a solid its shape.
Molecules in liquids are not so tightly packed. They move around more. The moving molecules are far enough apart to let liquids flow, but they are close enough to give liquids volume.
Molecules in gases zoom around every which way. They expand, or keep going outward, until they run into something. They fill any size container they are in.
Matter is classified into solid, liquid, and gas. All living and non-living things are made up of matter. It means that everything that you can see, touch, smell, breathe or eat is made up of matter.
You change water to a solid when you make ice cubes. You fill an ice cube tray with water and put it in your freezer to chill. Lowering the temperature makes the water molecules slow down. When the water gets cold enough, the molecules slow down enough to freeze into solid ice. This change happens at 32° Fahrenheit (0° Celsius). This temperature is called the freezing point of water. Above 32° Fahrenheit (0° Celsius), ice starts to melt and turn back into a liquid. So this temperature is also called the melting point of ice.
You change water into a gas when you boil water. You set a pot on the stove and turn on the burner. The water gets hotter and hotter. The water molecules move faster and faster. When the molecules are zooming every which way, the water starts to bubble as steam rises up into the air. Water changes into steam, a gas, when its temperature reaches 212° Fahrenheit (100° Celsius).
EVALUATION
1. How could you explain why some substances dissolve in water and others do not?
2. Why is there a gurgling sound when you empty a bottle full of liquid?
3. Explain what you understand as FREEING POINT OF WATER.

TOPIC: CLASSIFICATION OF MATTER
CONTENT 1: States of matter
STATES OF MATTER
Matter has been defined as anything that has mass and occupies space.
Matter can be classified into the following groups
I. Living and non-living things
II. Using the state of matter, solid, liquid and gas.
III. Using physical criteria like size, weight, texture, shape, color, smell, taste.
There are three states of matter which are solid, liquid and gas.
SOLID STATE OF MATTER
The particles of solid are arranged in an orderly manner. A strong intermolecular force holds the particles together. The particles are very much close together. Solids have definite shapes, volume and fixed mass. Examples of solid are salt, sugar, ice-block; stone e.t.c. solid undergoes translational motion and oscillatory motion.
LIQUID STATE OF MATTER
The particles of a liquid are not very close together. Liquid particles are a bit free to move about because of the moderate intermolecular force between particles. Liquid does not have a definite shape but takes the shape of the container. Liquid are fluid which flows or diffuse in all directions. Examples are water, blood, ink, urine. Liquid have definite volume, fixed mass. Liquid cannot be compressed or squeezed into a smaller space. Liquids undergo three kinds of motion, vibration, rotational and translational.
GAS STATE OF MATTER
The particles of gas are very far apart because of the very weak intermolecular force holding the particles. They move about freely at great speed. Gases have no definite shape, volume but have fixed mass. Gases can be compressed. Examples of gases are air, ammonia, steam, oxygen e.t.c.
CHANGE OF STATE
When solid water [ice] is heated, its particles move faster and break away from the ordered arrangement. The solid melts to become a liquid. The melting point of a substance is the temperature at which solid changes to liquid. The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which liquid changes to gas.

WEEK 8
TOPIC: CHARACTERISTICS OF LIVING THINGS.
CONTENT: 1.Charateristics of Living Things
2. Differences between plants and animals.
SUB-TOPIC 1: CHARACTERISTICS OF LIVING THINGS
THE CHARACTERISTICS OF LIVING THINGS (MR NIGERCLAD)
1. MOVEMENT: Movement is a change in position .Animals move from place to place. Plant only moves towards the light.
2. RESPIRATION :This is the release of energy as a result of breakdown of food in the body
3. NUTRITION/FEEDING: Food is a substance which when taken provides energy or materials for building the body. Plant and animals feed in order to get energy to carry out their daily activities and also to grow.
4. GROWTH: Growth is the increase in size as a result of formation of new cells and increase of the new cells .All living things grow as they become older.
5. IRRITABILITY/SENSITIVITY: This is the ability to respond to change in the environment. All living things respond to changes in the environment.
6. REPRODUCTION: All living things can reproduce their own kind/species.
7. EXCRETION: The removal of metabolic waste products from the body is called excretion
8. ADAPTATION: This is the way living things get used to their various environments.
9. COMPETITION: This is the ability of living things to struggle for all the necessities of life in order to survive in their various environments. Plants and animals compete for food.
10. LIFE SPAN/ DEATH: All living things must die because they have limited period of existence.
SUB-TOPIC 2: TYPES OF MOVEMENT
ACTIVE MOVEMENT: This occurs when a living thing moves by its own energy
[ii] Passive movement: This occurs when a living thing is carried by wind or water or animals from one place to another.
[iii] BENDING MOVEMENT: This occurs in plants which bend towards light, water or gravity.
PURPOSE OF MOVEMENT
To search for food.
To escape from dangers and enemies.
[iii] To respond to changes in the environment.
[iv] To seek reproductive mates or sites
Types of movement in plants are phototropism; movement towards light. Geotropism is the movement towards gravity.
EVALUATION
1. Write five differences between plants and animals
2. State the characteristics of living things.

DIFFERENCES IN STRUCTURE BETWEEN PLANTS AND ANIMALS
S/N Plants.................................Animals
1 They have roots................They have no roots
2 They have stems...............They have no stems
3 They have leaves ..............They have no leaves
4 They have flowers, fruits and seeds...They have no flowers, fruits and seeds
5 They have chlorophyll( green colouring matter in plants)...They have no chlorophyll
6 They have no definite shapes.......They have definite shapes
7 They are made up of many parts i.e. many leaves, branches, roots etc.....They are not made up of many parts
Plant Cell
Plant cells contain a variety of membrane-bound structures called organelles. These include a nucleus that carries genetic material; mitochondria that generate energy; ribosomes and rough endoplasmic reticulum that manufacture proteins; smooth endoplasmic reticulum that manufactures lipids used for making membranes and storing energy; and a thin lipid membrane that surrounds the cell. Plant cells also contain chloroplasts that capture energy from sunlight and a single fluid-filled vacuole that stores compounds and helps in plant growth. Plant cells are surrounded by a rigid cell wall that protects the cell and maintains its shape.
Animal Cel
An animal cell typically contains several types of membrane-bound organs, or organelles. The nucleus directs activities of the cell and carries genetic information from generation to generation. The mitochondria generate energy for the cell. Proteins are manufactured by ribosomes, which are bound to the rough endoplasmic reticulum or float free in the cytoplasm. The Golgi apparatus modifies, packages, and distributes proteins while lysosomes store enzymes for digesting food. The entire cell is wrapped in a lipid membrane that selectively permits materials to pass in and out of the cytoplasm.

WEEK 9
TOPIC: ACTIVITIES OF LIVING THINGS
CONTENT: 1. Types of feeding and reproduction
2. .Associated organs
3. Purpose/importance of the activities.
SUB-TOPIC: MODE OF FEEDING
1. AUTHOTROPHIC MODE OF FEEDING: This is found in green plants .Light energy is trapped by green plants and combined with inorganic materials (CO2) to produce food.eg photosynthesis.
2. HETEROTROPHIC MODE OF FEEDING: This is found mainly in animals .They are unable to produce their own food hence depends on already manufactured solid food which must be digested and absorbed. Under this mode of feeding, organisms (animals) can be classified according to their feeding habits.
A] HERBIVOROUS ANIMALS: These are the animals that feed mainly on plants. These are called ruminants. Examples are goats sheep and cattle.
B] CARNIVOROUS ANIMALS: These are animals that feed mainly on flesh. Examples are lion, cat and tiger.
C] OMNIVOROUS ANIMALS: These are animals that can feed on both plants and animals materials e. g man.
Further Studies
SUB-TOPIC 2: TYPES OF REPRODUCTION
1. Asexual reproduction:
2. Sexual reproduction.
[a] In PLANT
a. SEXUAL REPRODUCTION: This is the reproduction of plant through seeds only.
b. ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION: This is the process by which plant reproduces itself through vegetative means/parts. This method includes cutting, layering, budding and grafting, etc.
ANIMAL
SEXUAL REPRODUCTION: This is the fusion of male and female reproductive organs together .It is the only means of reproduction in animals.
TYPES OF GROWTH
1. Apical is the growth that involves growing tip of plant, growing tall from time to time.
2. Intercalary is a type of growth that involves every part of the body growing at the same time.
TYPES OF RESPIRATION
1. Aerobic respiration oxygen is used to liberate energy.
2. Anaerobic respiration involves a chemical process common with organisms like bacteria.
[youtube]https://youtu.be/sVTDF6xZMKg[/youtube]
EVALUATION
1. In a tabular form highlight the types of movement in animals.
2. Explain the two types of growth in living things
SUB-TOPIC 3: ASSOCIATED ORGANS
PURPOSE/IMPORTANCE OF THE ACTIVITIES
MOVEMENT: It enables plants and animal to search for food. It enables animals to change position.
RESPIRATION: (Wastes product) carbon (IV) oxide gets rid of the body systems.
NUTRITION: this enables plants and animals to get energy for their daily activities. This enables plant and animal to grow.
IRRITABILITY: it enables plants and animals to be sensitive to changes in their environment.
GROWTH: The food eaten is used to increase size and weight of plants and animals.
EXCRETION: All the wastes product are eliminated from the body system during excretion.
REPRODUCTION: Plants and animals are able to bring forth young ones like themselves. This brings about increase in population .It is for continuity of life.
EVALUATION
1. How many types of movement do you know in plant?
2. Mention the importance of the activities in living things.
