The document discusses how environmental factors affect the life cycles of organisms. It notes that organisms interact with non-living elements in their environment, like water, air, and soil, and with other organisms for food and socialization as they grow. The document aims to help students identify and describe how environmental factors impact organisms' abilities to survive and progress through different life stages. It provides examples of environmental conditions like limited resources that could harm organisms if not available in sufficient quantities.

Objectives:
After going through this, you are
expected to: • identify the effects of environmental factors that affect the life cycle of organisms • describe the effect of the different environmental factors to the life cycle of organisms. The environment plays an important role in the life cycle of organisms. Along the developmental process, organisms interact with non- living materials such as water, air and soil As organisms grow, it is also expected that they socialize with other organisms which may be their means of food. Just like us, we need water and food. We also need clothes and shelter. That is why the environment are important for us to grow and perform our roles based on the species we belong. In this lesson, you will describe the effect of environment on the life cycle of organisms. Through the discussion, you will be able to determine the things an organism does to survive. Objectives Identify and describe the specialized structure of the following plants. Write your answer in your Science notebook. Example: Durian- They have fruits with pungent odor. 1. rose- ___________________________________________________ 2. cactus- _________________________________________________ 3. pineapple- _______________________________________________ 4. gabi- _______________________________________________ 5. banana- ___________________________________________ Take a walk inside your house. Go to the window to look for other things. List down the things that catch you attention. Determine if these things are living or non living. Look at the pictures below. Which picture shows that it is a living thing? Non living thing? Directions: Perform each activity and answer the questions that follow. Write your answers in your science notebook. Activity 1: “What is in the Picture?” Directions: Look at the picture below. Describe the environmental factors affecting life cycle of organisms in the following environments. Answer the guide questions below. Guide Questions: 1. What kind of environment is in picture 1? picture 2? picture 3? What do we call this habitat? 2. What organisms can be found in environment/habitat 1? habitat 2? habitat 3? 3. What are the environmental factors affecting the life cycle of organisms? 4. In what way does water help in the life cycle of organisms? food? shelter? space? 5. What will happen to the organisms if there is: a. limited food? b. insufficient water? c. limited space for the organism? d. no shelter? The environment is composed of biotic and abiotic factors or its components. Biotic factors are those ‘things’ that have life. In contrast, abiotic factors are components that have no life . The interaction of these two factors affect much the development of an organism (it may be a plant, an animal, or a microorganism). Organisms may interact from one another in beneficial ways. But there are also some interactions that harm other organisms. Organism to organism relationship may also be affected by the habitat’s physical conditions such amount of sunlight, water and food. In general, these actions and reactions (cause and effect) happens naturally to maintain a balance ecosystem. Ecosystem is a complex unit of the environment wherein these biotic and abiotic interactions and organism to organism relationships happen. The study of different interactions as living things relate too. An ecosystem is the largest level of organization. It portrays the most complex interactions of all plants, animals, and microorganisms with the physical (abiotic) environment. Abiotic factors such as climate, amount of sunlight (temperature and energy), water, air and nutrients affect greatly the way of living of organisms. The ecosystem is primarily composed of six components. These are the sun (source of sunlight), producers (plants), abiotic substances (water, soil, air, etc.), primary consumers, secondary consumers and decomposers. These components naturally connect to one another to sustain life in the ecosystem. Food is essential for every living organisms to carry out life processes and essential interactions. The environment where these organisms live are important for their survival. This can be the source of food that they can depend on for their survival. Can you identify where these organisms get their energy (food)? Direction: Read the sentences below. Write True if the sentence is correct and False if it is wrong.
______ 1.Exposure to hazardous substances in the
air can poison the wild animals. ______ 2.Contaminated flood waters can pollute rivers and kill organism living on it. ______ 3.The effect of air pollution can force wild animals to stay on their habitat ______ 4. We can lessen the effect of environmental condition of an organism by segregating the trash. ______ 5. Over crowded areas will lead to starvation of some organism.
