Activity 1

Q1 - To differentiate CNS and PNS, CNS is in charge of activities that require intellectual
processing. On the other hand, PNS is involved in transferring information from CNS to
different parts of the body through nerves.

Q2 - If one part of the system does not work properly, then the rest of the system won't be
able to work correctly as well since they are interconnected. On top of that, the nervous
system controls all the other organ system in the body. If there is a dysfunction in the
nervous system, it will affect the other organ systems.

Activity 2

Question 3. Your answer will depend on whether you are a left-handed or right-handed
person.

Question 4. Your answer will depend on whether you are a left-handed or right-handed
person.

Question 5. The ruler was caught faster with eyes open.

Question 6. The message travels from one neuron to another until it reaches the brain. Then,
the brain’s response is also transmitted by another set of neurons.

Question 7. First, the eye sees the ruler, then sends a message to the brain. The brain sends
a response through the muscles in the hand. Finally, the muscles contract to allow the
person to catch the ruler.

Activity 3

8. brain receives the information through the sensory nerve cells.

9. brain analyzes the information as soon as it is received

10. the response is sent back to the structure that received it through the motor neurons

11.sensosry neurons received the information from the surrounding and deliver it to the
brain. motor neurons brings the response to whatever is the stimulus for proper action

12. stimulus travels from sensory neuron to CNS then the response travel through the motor
neurons

13.paralysis will result because there will be no stimulus that will reach the CNs

14. as of now there isn't any programs concerning health issues of nervous system (in our
locality)

1 DNA and RNA are actually called nucleic acids as a whole. Together, they keep track of
hereditary information in a cell so that a cell can maintain, grow and multiply on itself and
also serve its function well in a human's body.

2.These two are almost identical and work together in order for cell to grow. They both are
nucleic acids but RNA is only a single-stranded one compared to DNA.

3. URACILUracil is one of the four nucleobases in the nucleic acid of RNA that are
represented by the letters A, G, C and U. The others are adenine, cytosine, and guanine. In
RNA, uracil binds to adenine via two hydrogen bonds.

Q4. Each new strand formed is a complement of one of the original strands.

The result is the formation of two DNA molecules containing the original

DNA strand and the complementary daughter strands. The two new

daughter strands are also complementary to each other.

Q5. The two chains of nucleotides in a DNA molecule are held together by

hydrogen bonds between the bases. In DNA, cytosine forms three

hydrogen bonds with guanine, and thymine forms two hydrogen bonds

with adenine.

Q6. The pairing of the bases produces a long, two-stranded molecule that is

often compare to a zipper. If you look at a zipper, the sides of the zipper

represent the sugar and phosphate units, while the teeth of the zipper

represent the pairs of nitrogenous bases of the DNA.

Q7. Before a cell can divide by mitosis or meiosis, it must first make a copy

of its chromosomes. The DNA in the chromosomes are then copied in a

process called DNA replication.

Q8. The variety of life forms is encoded in the DNA sequences of these

organisms. More variations are alternative forms of genes cross-over and

recombine in meiosis. Production of different gametes containing different

sets of these genes and subsequent fusion with other gametes result to a
myriad of variations in the population.

Q13Basically in tRNA adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine are present whereas in mRNA the
thymine base is replaced with the usual RNA substitute, uracil.

Q14In first question do you mean RNA ? the partner or the only one who can join in the
adenine is the Uracil but in DNA the partner of Adenine is Thymine

Q15In science and biology, codon is the sequence or series of three nucleotide that forms a
genetic code in a certain deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) or in a ribonucleic acid (RNA). Codon
represents the genetic code within a DNA or an RNA.

Q16The role of tRNA or Transfer RNA in Protein Synthesis

tRNA or Transfer RNA brings or transfers amino acids to the ribosome during translation that
corresponds to each three-nucleotide codon of rRNA. The amino acids then can be joined
together and processed to make polypeptides and proteins.
Q17it will recognize which codon to attach due to the kind of bases present in the codon and
there will be the r-rna that will also help in the calling for specific amino acid and besides it
also has a kind of active sites that will accept only the right.
Q18when the ribosomes comes to an mRNA codon which is UGC (stop codon) this mean the
translation is done, and the polypeptide chain is completed.
Q19In translation process, the construction worker represent the function of tRNA, while the
hollow blocks represent the specific amino acid.
M3 activity 2
Q9. Yes, because their forelimbs are made up of same kinds of bones that just vary in size
and function differently, suggest that they share a common ancestor.
Q10. The teacher can assign the students to do some research to determine examples
about homologous structures.
Q11.In the embryonic development, it is STAGE 1 that shows similarities since the structure
of the different organisms like cat, birds, fish, lizards and human looked alike.
Q12.they are similar in structure of forelimbs
Q13.In the first and second stage of development the organisms have common patterns of
development they show similarities, but in stage 3 some structure that they differ such as
their forelimbs, their eyes and structure of bodies.
Q14.Yes it can be evidence that evolution takes place, the evidence of structure and
studying of their molecular structure may suggest that they are related to each other.
Q15. Chimpanzee
Q16. Kangaroo
Q17. Bread molds, with 48 differences in amino acid sequence.
Q18. Fruit fly and screwworm. Fruit fly and wheat, with 47 differences in amino acid
sequence.
Q19.Yes, the similarity in amino acid sequence may suggest similarity in their DNA
sequence.
Q20. Yes, similarity in amino acid sequence may suggest the closer relationship of the
organisms.

by a given environment especially in terms of food supply and a place to live in
