Call 2 to 3 learners to sum up the lesson
 EVALUATE
Multiple Choice: Write the letter of the correct answer, write
your answer on the space provided

1. Radio waves are useful forms of EM waves, but they also have harmful
effects to the body. Some health experts say that too much exposure
to high frequency radio waves may _________________________________.
A. cause severe burns
B. damage body tissues
C. carry the highest amount of energy
D. cause cancer, leukemia, and other health problems
2. How can you minimize/lessen exposure to cellphone radiation?
A. Sleep with your phone
 B. Avoid using your phone when it has high signal
C. Carry and keep your smartphone near your body
D. Use hand free and text messages whenever possible
3. When does infrared radiation become a health hazard? When ____?
A. It causes severe burns
B. It kills cells including cancerous cells
C. Exposure to high frequency may cause cancer
D. Exposure to intense electromagnetic radiation can damage the lens
and cornea of the eye
4. Why is absorption of UV rays in small doses by the human body very
important? It is because _______________________
A. it helps in the production of iron needed by the body
B. it helps in the absorption of sulfur needed by the body
C. it helps in the production and absorption of sodium that makes
our bones healthy and strong
D. UV rays play an important role in the production of vitamin D
which helps in the production and absorption of calcium that
makes our bones healthy and strong
5. Why are high frequency electromagnetic waves like gamma rays
harmful to living things? It is because ________________________
A. they carry very high amount of energy that enable them to
penetrate and kill living cells.
B. they carry moderate amount of energy that enable them to
penetrate and kill living cells.
C. they carry low amount of energy that enable them to penetrate and
kill living cells.
D. they pass through soft tissues but are filtered by dense matter

True or False: Write True if the statement is correct , write

False if the statement is incorrect. Write your answer on the space
provided.

__________1. Operating any appliances with a wet hand is unsafe

__________2. A circuit breaker automatically shuts down if there is
overloading in the circuit
__________3. Your washing machine and refrigerator should have
proper earthing for safe operation
__________4. Earthing protects the appliance used from the grounded
appliances
__________5. Grounded circuit happens when current takes a short cut
to a zero resistance conducting wire instead of passing through the load
__________6. It is a good practice to connect the computer set to a
voltage regulator to protect it from overloading
__________7. Fuse and circuit breaker are safety devices that open the
circuit when there is overloading
__________8. A fuse should be replaced immediately once it has blown
up
__________9. Blown out fuse can be replaced with a jumper wire
__________10. If you happen to touch with your bare hands an
uninsulated wire, it is safe if it has low current
