GRADE 11 HUMSS reporting

4. - Have the capacity to interact with their
environment.
- Humans and the environment have that
“mutual” interaction with each other.
- Have the capacity to change or influence
the balance of society. (David 2018)

5. - A complex of many variables which
surrounds man as well as the living
organisms.
- Includes water, air and land and the
interrelation ships which exists among and
between water, air and land.

6. - It may be described as a complex of
interacting components together with
the relationships among them that
permit the identification of a boundary-
maintaining entity or process. (David
2018)

7. - Also known as CHANS (coupled human
and natural system).
- Dynamical two-way interactions between
human systems (e.g. economic, social) and
natural (e.g. hydrologic, atmospheric,
biological, geological) systems.

8. - Social and natural systems are inseparable.
- Tackle broader investigations into the
complex nature of reciprocating
interactions and feedbacks humans on the
environment and the effect of the
environment on humans.

11. - The visible features of an area of land of
countryside or land, often considered in
terms of their aesthetic appeal.
- Part of the Earth’s surface that can be
viewed at one time from one place.
- Continually changing under the influence
of many different factors.

12. 1. Natural Landscape
– Original landscapes that exists before it is acted upon by
human culture.
2. Cultural Landscape
– Cultural properties [that] represent the combined works of
nature and of man
– Designed and created intentionally by man
– An organically evolved landscape which may be relict
landscape

13. - Focuses on a specific theme or subject
area such as physical phenomena like
temperature variation, rainfall
distribution, and population density in
an area
(Berroya 2017).

14. - First-person perspective of an area and how
they interact with it.
- The image you have of your neighborhood.
Your mental map of where you live
allows you to know how to get to your
favorite coffee shop.
- It is what you use to plan activities and
routes to travel.

15. - The arrangement of a phenomenon
across Earth’s surface and graphical
display of such an arrangement is an
important tool in geographical and
environmental statistics.

16. - Describes how spread out a
population is (what area it occurs
in), while population density
describes how many individuals are
found in a given area.

17. - A type of geographical analysis which
seeks to explain patterns of human
behavior
and its spatial expression in terms of
mathematics, and geometry, that is,
locational analysis. (Berroya 2017)

19. Many of the environmental issues today relate to
humans over use of finite resources for economic
development. As a species, humans tend to regard the
environment as a never ending source of materials and
energy. Healthy ecosystems and environments are
necessary to the survival of humans and other
organisms. Ways of reducing negative human impact
are environmental resources management,
environmental protection, and environmentally
friendly chemical engineering (David 2018).

26. Beliefs, attitudes, and values related to
material possessions and the relation of
humanity and nature are often seen as
lying at the root of environmental
degradation.

27. Economic Growth for the first time in human
history, economic activity is so extensive that it
produces environmental change at the global
level; the prospect of further economic growth
arouses concern about the quality of the global
environment.

28. The global environment responds to
the actions of
markets, governments, and the
international political economy.
