QUARTER 1 MODULE 2 Prevention and Treatment of Respiratory and
Circulatory Diseases
Name: ________________________________ Year & Section: _____________

Respiratory disease is also called lung disorder or pulmonary disease. It is a disorder or an infection
that affects the lungs and causes breathing problems.
Circulatory system disease is a condition that affects the structures or function of your heart and the
blood vessels.
I. Instructions: Classify the following diseases as respiratory or circulatory:
__________1. Emphysema is the damage of air sacs (alveoli) in the lungs.
__________2. Asthma is a chronic disorder that causes swelling and soreness of the interior airway
walls.
__________3. Lung Cancer is tumors in the lungs that reduce a person's ability to breathe.
__________4. Atherosclerosis refers to the buildup of fats, cholesterol and other substances that
trigger blood to clot.
__________5. Pneumonia is an infection in one or both lungs which causes inflammation of the air
sacs. The infection is caused by bacteria, viruses and fungi.
__________6. Stroke is caused by blockage of blood flow or rupture of an artery to the brain.
__________7. High blood pressure (hypertension) means too high force or pressure of the blood
flowing through the vessels.
__________8. Tuberculosis happens when the bacteria called mycobacterium tuberculosis attack the
lungs.
__________9. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is caused by long-term exposure to
substances that irritate and damage the lungs like cigarette smoke and other pollutants.
__________10.Coronary heart disease is the damage in major blood vessels that supply our heart
with blood, oxygen and nutrients. This disease can be caused by high cholesterol foods, diabetes,
family history and smoking

II. Health is wealth A. Directions: Arrange the jumbled letters to come up with the right
answer. Use the clue to help you.
1. ________________ ERXSESIC – It improves your heart and lung power.
2. ________________TIDE – The sum of food regularly consumed.
3. ________________RTSE – It helps you recover strength.
4. ________________GINEHYE – It helps you maintain health and prevent disease.

B. Based on the jumbled letters, list down practices on how we can prevent diseases.

LEVEL QUARTER Module 3: Inheritance Pattern: Codominance
GRADE 9

Name: ________________________________ Year & Section: _____________

Codominance, two dominant alleles of a contrasting pair are fully expressed at the
same time in the heterozygous individual. This happens when one allele is not
dominant over the other. The resulting heterozygotes exhibit the traits of both
parents. Codominance describes a situation in which both alleles are expressed at
the same time. The hybrid organism shows a third phenotype. It is not the usual
dominant or the recessive one but a third different phenotype. Codominance is
easy to spot in plants and animals that have more than one pigment color. Spotted
cows and flowers with petals of two different colors are examples of codominance.
Multiple alleles (3 or more) may exist for that gene within a population. A good
example of multiple alleles is the ABO blood group of humans. A single gene
controls ABO blood type but there are three common alleles of this gene in human
populations – IA, IB, and i. The IA and IB are dominant over i. Individuals with
genotype IA IA or genotype IA i have blood type A. Those with genotype IB IB or
genotype IB i have blood type B. The IA and IB alleles are codominant, thus
individuals with genotype IAIB have blood type AB.
I. Instructions: Study the picture below. Do you observe something unusual
or uncommon with the photo? Write your observation.

1. What are your observations based on the picture above? Explain.

GRADE 9 QUARTER Module 4: INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE: Non-
Mendelian Pattern of Inheritance
Name: ________________________________ Year & Section: _____________
A cross between the pure red and white-flowered four o’clock plant will produce all pink flowers. With
incomplete dominance, the dominant and recessive traits blend resulting the third phenotype something in
the middle. Follow the steps below on how to solve genetic problems using Punnett square. Show a cross
between two pink four o’clock flower using a Punnett square. Determine the genotypic and phenotypic ratio
of the offspring.
Solution: Step 1: Identify the genotype of the parents. Heterozygous pink (RW) x Heterozygous pink (RW)
Step 2: Construct the Punnett square and show the possible outcome of the cross.

Step 3: Interpret the results.

2 RW - Heterozygous pink four o’clock flower
1 WW - Homozygous white four o’clock flower
1 RR - Homozygous red four o’clock flower
Step 4: Write the genotypic and phenotypic ratio of the offspring.
Genotypic Ratio=2:1:1 or 50% RW, 25% WW, 25% RR
Phenotypic Ratio=2:1:1 or 50% Pink, 25% White, 2% Red
