LESSON 3:

ACTIVITY 1: ANSWER ME

Direction: Answer the following questions.

1. What are the contributions of Persia to the development of science and technology?

Persian engineers also developed a more advanced wind-power machine, which was based off
the early Babylonian model, for irrigation (Mirrazavi). The Persian Empire also made a grieve
contribution to recent day mathematics. He also expanded upon past Indian and Persian
arithmetic systems (Mirrazavi). The Persians were the first people to establish regular routes of
communication between three continents—Africa, Asia and Europe. They built many new roads
and developed the world's first postal service

2. What is the difference between Socrates’s Skepticism and Platos’ Idealism?

Socrates (470 – 399 B.C) emphasized the study of human nature in relation to society;
established the theory of skepticism. While Plato dealt with the nature of the universe; ascribed
geometric forms composed of bounding planes to the elements of earth, fire, air and water
based upon their physical properties.

3. Explain the contribution and influence made by Galen in the development of science and
technology.

Galen influenced the development of various scientific disciplines, including anatomy,


physiology, pathology, and neurology as well as physiology and logic. His most important
discovery was that arteries carry blood although he did not discover circulation. Galen was
prolific, with hundreds of treatises to his name. He compiled all significant Greek and Roman
medical thought to date, and added his own discoveries and theories.

4. Compare and contrast the theory of Ptolemy and Copernicus.

Ptolemy made the best model he could with the assumption that Earth was the center of the
universe, but by letting that assumption go, Copernicus came up with a much simpler model.
Before people would accept that Copernicus was right, they needed to accept that the Sun was
the center of the solar system. In Ptolemy model, the Earth was at the center and all planets
revolve around it. In Copernicus model, Sun was at the center and all the planets revolve around
the sun.

5. What are the contributions made by Archimedes?

Archimedes performs experiments which led him to discover the laws of the lever and the pulley
that resulted in the invention of machines which could easily move leads

6. What are the significance of aqueducts, dams, roads and bridges built by the Romans?

The Romans constructed aqueducts throughout their Republic and later Empire, to bring water
from outside sources into cities and towns. Aqueduct water supplied public baths, latrines,
fountains, and private households; it also supported mining operations, milling, farms, and
gardens.

ACTIVITY 2:

1. Make a letter of the scientist or Philosophers showing your appreciation of the contributions
made by them.

Dear Aristotle,

I really appreciate your contributions to all fields of philosophy and science, and also I want to
thank you because you invented the field of formal logic, and appreciate how you identified the
various scientific disciplines and explored their relationships to each other. I appreciate all your
contribution, you also created a basis for a great deal of today's scientific knowledge, such as
the classification of organisms and objects. Though erroneous by current standards, his four-
element system of nature (i.e. minerals, plants, animals, and humans) has guided scientists for
centuries in the study of biology.

Sincerely;

Judy-ann E. Aday

The Idea of Zero

Little needs to be written about the mathematical digit ‘zero’, one of


the most important inventions of all time. Mathematician Aryabhata
was the first person to create a symbol for zero and it was through his
efforts that mathematical operations like addition and subtraction
started using the digit, zero. The concept of zero and its integration into
the place-value system also enabled one to write numbers, no matter
how large, by using only ten symbols.

LESSON 6:
ACTIVITY 1: ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS.

1. Choose at least 3 inventions from the Medieval Ages that strikes you most?

• Hourglass

• wheelbarrow

• Oil plant

2. Choose at least three inventions from the Medieval Ages whom you think have the least
importance? Justify your answer.

For me the least important inventions from the Medieval Ages are chess, blast furnace and
mirror. Blast Furnace I feel that the speed advantage of a blast furnace is not really worth the
additional cost of crafting it, the reduction in XP yield, and the limitation to only smelting metals.
So there is very little benefit to using a blast furnace over a traditional furnace. For me chess
also is least importance because when someone is playing chess, overweight and obesity may
become a problem, and also it lacks of physical exercises and it takes so much time to learn. Last
is mirror why I choose mirror as the least import invention, because for me mirror can lessen the
self-esteem of a person who don't had a good looking, he/she will end up looking down to there
self.

3. Choose at least three inventions which you think are most valuable for survival of a human
being? Justify your answer.

I choose the tide well, artesian well, Heavy wheeled plough. I choose tide well because Tidal
mills were built in order to make grinding grain in mills easier, people were able to mass grind
the seeds into flour and it became a much easier process making the grain much more valuable.
It helped grain become even more of a staple food. Artesian well It is important to prevent
wastewater and human or animal waste being deposited anywhere near the well, as it could
penetrate the soil and potentially pollute the water table. If the well is used for drinking water
and to water livestock, the watering place for the livestock must be well away from the well.
The invention of the heavy plough made it possible to harness areas with clay soil, and clay soil
was more fertile than the lighter soil types. This led to prosperity and literally created a breeding
ground for economic growth and cities – especially in Northern Europe

LESSON 7-8:

ACTIVITY 1: COMPARE AND CONTRAST

1. Plate tectonic and continental drift theory.

The difference between continental drift and plate tectonics is that the theory of continental
drift states that the world was made up of a single continent. The theory of plate-tectonics, on
the other hand, states that earth's surface is broken into numbers of shifting plates or slabs. The
similarities would be the movement and they are both apart of one large theory

2. X-rays and radioactivity

Radioactive sources are unstable materials that generate gamma rays as they decay. X-rays are
generated in a vacuum tube where high voltage is used to accelerate electrons to a high
velocity, that then collide with a metal target, an anode creating X-rays. Both forms of ionizing
radiation are almost identical with exception to their source of origination.

3. The work of Charles Darwin and Gregor Mendel


Charles Darwin proposed the natural selection as an explanation of evolution. While Gregor
Mendel’s- Theory of Genetics

4. Gas lighting and glass making

Gas lighting is the large-scale introduction of this was the work of William Murdoch, an
employee of Boulton and Watt. The first gas lighting utilities were established in London
between 1812 and 1820. While Glass production involves two main methods – the float glass
process that produces sheet glass, and glassblowing that produces bottles and other containers.
It has been done in a variety of ways during the history of glass.

5. Alchemy and metallurgy

Alchemy is the very old study and philosophy of how to change basic substances (such as
metals) into other substances. Some alchemists used metals (like gold or silver) to represent
spiritual or occult ideas. People in many different countries studied alchemy. While Metallurgy is
a major change in the metal industries during the era of the Industrial Revolution was the
replacement of wood and other bio-fuels with coal.

ACTIVITY 2: ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS:

1. Identify and explain the various remarkable inventions in the 20th Century.

There can be no doubt that the twentieth century is one of the most remarkable in human
history for its previously unparalleled rate of technological advances and scientific discoveries, a
rate that continues to this day. In fact, there were so many new gadgets invented and
discoveries made in the last century that it’s difficult to pare the list down to just the ten (which
is why there will be a number of glaring omissions from my list). However, I think I have
managed to whittle it down to those ten innovations or technologies that have had the greatest
influence: The Internet, Radio, television, Antibiotics, submarine, Rocketry, Automobile,
Airplane, Personal computer, Nuclear Power. These are the top 10 various remarkably
inventions in 20th cwntuey

2. How these inventions give impacts in your daily lives? Justify your answer.

Society has always been impacted by the Technology that was been invented. Each invention
has affected how people relate to one another and how cultures have expanded or ended.
Technologies are the reason a few people are very rich, that people are more social, and that
teaching and learning is changing. Technology affects the way individuals communicate, learn,
and think. It helps society and determines how people interact with each other on a daily
basis. ... It's made learning more interactive and collaborative, this helps people better engage
with the material that they are learning and have trouble with.

3. If none of these inventions are present today, what would happen? Explain your answer.

Furthermore, imagine a world without those inventions and how it will affect the population
who used to adapt to various kind of technology. In conclusion, if there is no inventions to the
world, it will go dull and the students and other people are like living in a world without a useful
resources and lack of information. If there's no inventions the human kind will remain strenuous
in everything they do. Without technology,only few vehicles will be made and few buildings as
well. In general, if technology dies not exist, the world will not be as easy and as prosperous as
today
