COURSE OUTLINE FOR EARTH & LIFE SCIENCE
2nd
Semester
SY 2020-2021
Subject Description: This learning area is designed to provide a general background for the understanding of Earth Science
and Biology. It presents the history of the Earth through geologic time. It discusses the Earth’s structure, composition, and
processes. Issues, concerns, and problems pertaining to natural hazards are also included. It also deals with the basic
principles and processes in the study of biology. It covers life processes and interactions at the cellular, organism,
population, and ecosystem levels.
Objectives:
At the end of the semester students shall be able to:
1. State the different hypotheses explaining the origin of the universe.
2. Describing the different hypotheses explaining the origin of the solar system.
3. Recognize the uniqueness of Earth, being the only planet in the solar system with properties necessary to
support life.
4. Explain that the Earth consists of four subsystems, across whose boundaries matter and energy flow.
5. Explain the current advancements/ information on the solar systems.
6. Identify the layers of the Earth.
7. Differentiate the layers of the Earth.
8. Identify common rock-forming minerals using their physical and chemical properties.
9. Classify rocks into igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic.
10. Describe how rocks undergo weathering.
11. Explain how the products of weathering are carried away by erosion and deposited elsewhere.
12. Make a report on how rocks and soil move downslope due to the direct action of gravity.
13. Describe where the Earth’s internal heat comes from.
14. Describe how magma is formed (magmatism).
15. Describe what happens after the magma is formed (plutonism and volcanism).
16. Describe the changes in mineral components and texture of rocks due to changes in pressure and
temperature.
17. Compare and contrast the formation of the different types of igneous rocks.
18. Describe how rocks behave under different types of stress such as compression, pulling apart and shearing.
19. Explain how the continents drift.
20. Cite evidence that support continental drift.
21. Explain how the movement of plates leads to the formation of folds and faults.
22. Explain how the seafloor spreads.
23. Describe the structure and evolution of ocean basins.
24. Describe how layers of rocks (stratified rocks) are formed.
25. Describe the different methods (relative and absolute dating) to determine the age of stratified rocks.
26. Explain how relative and absolute dating were used to determine the subdivisions of geologic time.
27. Describe how marker fossils (also known as guide fossils) are used to define and identify subdivisions of the
geologic time scale.
28. Describe how the Earth’s history can be interpreted from the geologic time scale.
29. Describe the various hazards that may happen in the event of earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and landslides.
30. Using hazard maps, identify areas prone to hazards brought about by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and
landslides.
31. Give practical ways of coping with geologic hazards caused by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and landslides.
32. Identify human activities that speed up or trigger landslides.
33. Suggest ways to help lessen the occurrence of landslides in your community.
34. Describe the various hazards that may happen in the wake of tropical cyclones, monsoons, floods or ipo-ipo.
35. Give practical ways of coping with hydrometeorological hazards caused by tropical cyclones, monsoons,
floods, or ipo-ipo.
36. Describe how coastal processes result in coastal erosion, submersion, and saltwater intrusion.
37. Identify areas in your community prone to coastal erosion, submersion, and saltwater intrusion.
38. Give practical ways of coping with coastal erosion, submersion, and saltwater intrusion.

3. 39. Cite ways to prevent or mitigate the impact of land development, waste disposal, and construction of
structures on control coastal processes.
40. Explain the evolving concept of life based on emerging pieces of evidence.
41. Describe classic experiments that model condition which may have enabled the first forms to evolve.
42. Describe how unifying themes (e.g. structure and function, evolution, and ecosystems) in the study of life
show the connections among living things and how they interact with each other and with their environment.
43. Explain how cells carry out functions required for life.
44. Explain how photosynthetic organisms use light energy to combine carbon dioxide and water to form energy-
rich compounds.
45. Recognize that organisms require energy to carry out functions required for life.
46. Describe the different ways of how plants reproduce.
47. Explain how the information in the DNA allows the transfer of genetic information and synthesis of proteins.
48. Describe the process of genetic engineering.
49. Conduct a survey of the current uses of genetically modified organisms.
50. Evaluate the benefits and risks of using GMOs.
51. Explain the different metabolic processes involved in the various organ systems.
52. Describe the general and unique characteristics of the different organ systems in representative animals.
53. Analyze the relationships of the different plant organs.
54. Describe the structure and function of the different plant organs.
55. Explain the different metabolic processes involved in the plant organ systems.
56. Describe the evidence of evolution such as homology, DNA/protein sequences, plate tectonics, fossil record,
embryology, and artificial selection/agriculture.
57. Explain how populations of organisms have changed and continue to change over time showing patterns of
descent with modification from common ancestors to produce the organismal diversity observed today.
58. Describe how the present system of classification of organisms is based on evolutionary relationships.
59. Describe the principles of ecosystem.
60. Categorize the different biotic potential and environmental resistance (e.g., diseases, availability of food, and
predators) that affect the population explosion.
61. Describe how the different terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems are interlinked with one another.
