This document discusses the unique characteristics of Earth that make it habitable and able to support life. It focuses on four key characteristics: liquid water, heat sources, the atmosphere, and how these allow life. Liquid water is essential for life and is maintained on Earth by its position in the habitable zone around the sun where water can exist in liquid form. Heat sources like the sun and internal geological activity help regulate temperatures. The atmosphere protects the planet from extreme temperatures and radiation, and allows photosynthesis to occur through its gases. These factors together make Earth uniquely habitable compared to other planets in the solar system.

Earth as Unique Planet
The document discusses the Earth's unique characteristics that make it habitable and able to support life. It focuses on three key aspects: the presence of liquid water, heat sources, and the atmosphere. Liquid water is essential for life and was brought to Earth by comets or volcanism. The Earth exists within the habitable zone of the Sun where water can be liquid. Heat sources both internally from the Earth's core and externally from the Sun allow life-sustaining temperatures. The atmosphere supports photosynthesis, regulates gases and temperature, and its existence is due to the Earth's gravity holding it in place.
Q1C1L3 Life on Earth.pptx
The document discusses the key factors that make Earth capable of sustaining life. It states that all planets in the solar system formed from dust particles through accretion. Two important characteristics for life are the presence of liquid water and an atmosphere. Water allowed the first photosynthetic organisms to emerge and produce oxygen. Heat from both the Earth's interior and Sun is also necessary, as it drives systems like plate tectonics and the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect helps regulate temperatures and enables photosynthesis, which controls gas levels. Together these factors have made the Earth uniquely suited for life.
Q1C1L3 Life on Earth.pptx
The Earth is able to support life due to key characteristics like the presence of liquid water, its ability to maintain heat from both its core and the Sun, and the existence of an atmosphere. Life first began in water, as the earliest photosynthetic organisms used sunlight, carbon dioxide and water to produce oxygen. Maintaining heat allows photosynthesis and the right balance of gases, while the atmosphere provides surface temperature regulation and protects from extreme temperature fluctuations. Other planets lack some of these necessary conditions to sustain life over long periods.

Here are brief answers to the questions:
1. Temperature affects biological and chemical processes that are necessary to support life. Temperature must be within a certain range for liquid water and biological molecules to exist.
2. Liquid water is essential for life as we know it. It acts as a solvent and is necessary for biological and chemical reactions in living cells and organisms.
3. The atmosphere provides insulation from temperature extremes, protects from harmful radiation, provides gases like oxygen and carbon dioxide needed for life, and contributes to the greenhouse effect that helps regulate Earth's temperature.
4. Living organisms harness energy from the sun through photosynthesis or rely on chemical energy through chemosynthesis. This energy is used to power biological processes and

History Of Life On Earth
The document summarizes the history of life on Earth from its beginnings around 4 billion years ago to the present. It describes how life first emerged on Earth through natural chemical and physical processes, with the earliest life forms being microspheres composed of amino acids and RNA. These eventually developed into the first prokaryotic cells through self-replication of their RNA. Further evolution led to eukaryotic cells through endosymbiosis, and complex multicellular organisms developed over time, with major diversifications and several mass extinction events altering life on the planet.

https://app.box.com/s/y977uz6bpd3af4qsebv7r9b7s21935vdA Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
How to Fix the Import Error in the Odoo 17
An import error occurs when a program fails to import a module or library, disrupting its execution. In languages like Python, this issue arises when the specified module cannot be found or accessed, hindering the program's functionality. Resolving import errors is crucial for maintaining smooth software operation and uninterrupted development processes.

- 1. LES S ON 4 THEEARTH A S A UNIQUE PLANET
- 3. LESSON OBJECTIVES At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to recognize the uniqueness of the Earth being the only planet in the solar system with properties necessary to support life.
- 5. LIQUIDWATER Life would not have begun without water. Is this statement true? Why?
- 6. LIQUID WATER Water is the most abundant molecule in cells,accounting for 70% or more of total cell mass.
- 7. LIQUID WATER Can our cells function without water? CERTAINLY NOT!
- 8. LIQUID WATER The presence of water allowed the first photosynthetic organisms to thrive.
- 9. LIQUID WATER Cyanobacteria is an organism that needs sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to produce biomass and oxygen.
- 10. LIQUID WATER Where does water come from?
- 11. LIQ U IDWATER Scientists believe that water on Earth came from two possible sources: Volcanism Melting of icy meteors of the outer regions of the Solar System that bombarded Earth.
- 12. LIQ U IDWATER Earth is situated in the HABITABLE ZONE (GOLDILOCKS ZONE)- the distance from a star where liquid water can exist in its liquid form.
- 13. LIQ U IDWATER What will happen if Earth had been located a little farther or nearer to the Sun?
- 14. LIQ U IDWATER Water would exist as ice crystals (if farther from the Sun) or as part of the thick atmosphere (if nearer).
- 15. HEA T S O U RCE
- 16. H EATSO URCE Heat drives the different systems necessary to support life on Earth.
- 17. H EATSO URCE What are the two sources of heat on Earth?
- 18. H EATSO URCE Two S ources of Heat 1.Internal Heating 2.External Heating
- 19. H EATSO URCE Heat coming from the Earth is caused by plate movement and volcanism.
- 20. H EATSO URCE The heat coming from the sun is in the form of radiation which enters the Earth.
- 21. H EATSO URCE S ome of the heat from the sun is trapped by layers of gases that envelope the Earth known as the atmosphere.
- 22. H EATSO URCE The atmosphere is responsible for the occurrence of the greenhouse phenomenon, a natural process which maintains heat.
- 23. ATMOSPHERE The atmosphere is a vital part of photosynthesis.How important is photosynthesis to us and why?
- 24. ATMOSPHERE Photosynthesis ensures the adequate amount and flow of gases on Earth.
- 25. ATMOSPHERE What will happen if Earth has no atmosphere?
- 26. ATMOSPHERE Without an atmosphere, the average surface temperature would be below freezing.
- 27. ATMOSPHERE Without an atmosphere, a planet would receive an extreme amount of radiation.
- 28. ATMOSPHERE The existence of an atmosphere is mainly due to a planet's gravity which pulls the atmosphere from being carried by the solar radiation.
