ACTIVITY SHEET IN SCIENCE 7

2nd Quarter, Week 2 – (Focus specimens using the
compound microscope)
Direction: All answers in each activity should be written on a separate
answer sheet.
• Objectives - One of the most important parts of a compound microscope, as they
are the lenses closest to the specimen. Usually you will find 3 or 4 objective
lenses on a microscope. It is used to magnify the images of the specimen to form
an enlarged image.
• Scanner – 4x or 5x
• Low power objective (LPO) – 10x, use to get the outline of the object. •
High power objective (HPO) -40x, use to study the object in detail. • Oil
immersion objective (OIO) – 100x use to study bacteria

FROM SMALL TO BIG……

The process wherein an objects appearance is enlarged with the use of a microscope is
called magnification. The magnification of a specimen can be calculated using this:
Magnification = Magnification x Magnification

ACTIVITY SHEET IN SCIENCE 7
2nd Quarter, Week 4 - (Differentiate plant and animal cells according to presence or
absence of certain organelles, S7LT-IIc 3)
Direction: All answers in each activity should be written on a separate answer sheet.
Cells are the fundamental units of living organisms. The cell is the key to biology because it is at
this level that life truly springs. Cells have structures imagine that you could become smaller, down
to the size of one micron (1 micron = 1/1000 inch). Your whole body would be smaller than the
typical animal cell. Imagine, that you could step inside this cell and explore it. Find out some
structures inside a cell. Be able to explore how bacterial cells are different from other cells such
as plant and animal cells. Break a chicken egg into a dish, and look at the yolk. Other cells that
can be seen easily are large fish eggs. While cells differ in size and shape, most of them have
common structures. The cells of animals, plants, and related organisms have three basic
structures:
Cell membrane – the outer boundary of the cell.
Nucleus – the control center of the cell.
Cytoplasm – the material between the cell membrane and the nucleus.
The first thing you see as you approach this cell is a thin sac-like membrane. The cell membrane
covers the entire surface of the cell. As you take the imaginary step through

ACTIVITY SHEET IN SCIENCE 7

2nd Quarter, Week 5 - (Differentiate asexual from sexual
reproduction in terms of: 1. Number of individuals
involved, 2. Similarities of offspring to parents) Direction:
All answers in each activity should be written on a separate answer
sheet.
Overview
The beginning of a new life is truly a remarkable event. The sight of a chick making its
way out of the cracked shell or a germinating seed slowly pushing through the soil can leave
one fascinated. The ability of an organism to produce new individuals is one of the
characteristics that distinguishes living things from nonliving things. This ability is called
reproduction.

In the lower grades, you have learned that during reproduction, certain traits are passed
on from parent to offspring. These traits are in the form of codes contained in genes. Genes
are found in chromosomes which are in turn located in the nucleus of cells.
In asexual reproduction, the parent and the resulting offspring have the same genes and
this is the reason why they have the same traits. In other words, we can say that they are
genetically identical. Examples of this are budding, fission, and fragmentation.
On the other hand, in sexual reproduction, two parents produce offspring that have
unique combinations of genes. Offspring of sexual reproduction differ genetically from their
siblings and both parents.
Key Concepts:
1. Organisms must reproduce to continue their own kind.
2. There are two major modes of reproduction: asexual and sexual reproduction.
3. Asexual reproduction gives rise to offspring that are identical to the parent.
4. Individuals that reproduce through sexual reproduction need two parents, a male and
a female, that produce egg cell and sperm cell.
5. Sexual reproduction gives rise to offspring that are a combination of the traits from its
parents.

2nd Quarter, Week 7 - (Predict the effect of changes in
abiotic factors on the ecosystem)
Abiotic factors are all of the non-living things in an ecosystem. Both biotic and abiotic factors are related to each
other in an ecosystem, and if one factor is changed or removed, it can affect the entire ecosystem. Abiotic
factors are especially important because they directly affect how organisms survive.

Activity 1 A: Direction: Choose the letter of the best answer.

1. Which is abiotic factor that affects the number and kinds of plants in an ecosystem?
a.amount of water c. type of soil
b. average temperature d. all of the above

2. If a plant is adapted to low temperatures and the specific are where it lives, has a change in
its temperature this plant will die and this area will no longer support life which is due to the
change in temperature. What abiotic factor affecting plant growth?
a. amount of water c. change in temperature
b. amount of light d. concentration of oxygen

3. Light intensity affects the growth of plants in an ecosystem. Is this an example of_______
a. Biotic c. both abiotic and biotic
b. Abiotic d. none of these

4. Which of the following abiotic factors, when decreased, would not decrease the rate of
photosynthesis?
a. Carbon dioxide availability c. oxygen availability
b. Light d. temperature

5. The picture shows cacti plants in the desert. Cacti have adapted a thick, waxy covering and

adaptations?
a. carbon dioxide
b. Oxygen
c. Sunlight
d. water
