Together with PNU, this Teaching Guide was studied and reviewed by education and pedagogy experts, and was enhanced with appropriate methodologies and strategies. Furthermore, the Commission believes that teachers are the most important partners in attaining this goal. Incorporated in this Teaching Guide is a framework that will guide them in creating lessons and assessment tools, support them in facilitating activities and questions, and assist them towards deeper content areas and competencies. Thus, the introduction of the SHS for SHS Framework. The SHS for SHS Framework, which stands for “Saysay-Husay-Sarili for Senior High School,” is at the core of this book. The lessons, which combine high-quality content with flexible elements to SHS for SHS accommodate diversity of teachers and environments, promote these three fundamental concepts: Framework SAYSAY: MEANING HUSAY: MASTERY SARILI: OWNERSHIP Why is this important? How will I deeply understand this? What can I do with this? Through this Teaching Guide, Given that developing mastery When teachers empower teachers will be able to facilitate goes beyond memorization, learners to take ownership of an understanding of the value teachers should also aim for their learning, they develop of the lessons, for each learner deep understanding of the independence and self- to fully engage in the content subject matter where they lead direction, learning about both on both the cognitive and learners to analyze and the subject matter and affective levels. synthesize knowledge. themselves. Biology I is a Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Specialized Subject About this taken in the first half of Grades 11/12. Learners go on a journey geared toward the deeper Teaching Guide understanding and appreciation of life processes at the cellular and molecular levels previously introduced in Grades 7-10. They will also apply basic chemistry and physics principles as they examine the transformation of energy in organisms. Implementing this course at the senior high school level is subject to numerous challenges with mastery of content among educators tapped to facilitate learning and a lack of resources to deliver the necessary content and develop skills and attitudes in the learners, being foremost among these. In support of the SHS for SHS framework developed by CHED, these teaching guides were crafted and refined by biologists and biology educators in partnership with educators from focus groups all over the Philippines to provide opportunities to develop the following: 1. Saysay through meaningful, updated, and context-specific content that highlights important points and common misconceptions so that learners can connect to their real- world experiences and future careers; 2. Husay through diverse learning experiences that can be implemented in a resource- poor classroom or makeshift laboratory that tap cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains are accompanied by field-tested teaching tips that aid in facilitating discovery and development of higher-order thinking skills; and 3. Sarili through flexible and relevant content and performance standards allow learners the freedom to innovate, make their own decisions, and initiate activities to fully develop their academic and personal potential. These ready-to-use guides are helpful to educators new to either the content or biologists new to the experience of teaching Senior High School due to their enriched content presented as lesson plans or guides. Veteran educators may also add ideas from these guides to their repertoire. The Biology Team hopes that this resource may aid in easing the transition of the different stakeholders into the new curriculum as we move towards the constant improvement of Philippine education. 2 This Teaching Guide is mapped and aligned to the DepEd SHS Curriculum, designed to be highly Parts of the usable for teachers. It contains classroom activities and pedagogical notes, and is integrated with Teaching Guide innovative pedagogies. All of these elements are presented in the following parts: 1.

The compartmentalization of the cell into membrane-bound organelles: allows conflicting functions (i.e., synthesis vs. breakdown) and several cellular activities to occur simultaneously without interference from each other separates the DNA material of the nucleus, mitochondria, and chloroplast increases the surface area-volume ratio of the cell 16 Encourage the learners to look at the cell as both a system and subsystem. They should develop an understanding of how the parts of a cell interact with one another and how these parts help to do the ‘work’ of the cell (Source: (n.d.). Retrieved from ) Emphasize to the learners that energy transformation is one of the characteristics of life. This refers to the ability to obtain and use energy. This characterizes the main function of the mitochondria and the chloroplasts. MOTIVATION (5 MINS) Ask the learners how they understand the concept of compartmentalization. Relate the concept to how the cell is compartmentalized into organelles. Compare compartmentalization to the division of a house into a receiving room or sala, kitchen, dining room, comfort rooms, bedrooms, etc. Teacher tip Explain to the learner that this is how the Ask the learners why they think a house is divided into several rooms. cell is able to allow conflicting functions A possible response is that partitioning of the house into different parts facilitates the simultaneous (e.g., synthesis vs breakdown) and several occurrence of several activities without interfering with one another. Also, materials needed for each cellular activities to occur simultaneously without interference from each other. activity can be stored at their specific areas. For example, pots and pans are being stored in the kitchen and not in the bedroom. Beds and pillows are found in the bedroom and not in the toilet/bath. Explain to the learners that the mitochondria and chloroplasts have a small amount of DNA. Although most of the proteins of these organelles are imported from the cytosol and are thus programmed by the nuclear DNA, their DNA programs the synthesis of the proteins made on the organelles’ ribosomes (Source: Campbell et al). Compartmentalization separates the DNA material of the nucleus, mitochondria, and chloroplast. Ask the learners if they have experienced going to a city/municipal hall and if they have observed that the Mayor, Vice-Mayor, and the City/Municipal Administrator have separate offices. You can use other examples such as the University President, VP for Academic Affairs, VP for Finance; Philippine President, Vice President, Senators, etc. Compare the nuclear DNA to the Mayor and the mitochondrial DNA and chloroplast DNA to the Vice Mayor. The Mayor runs the city/municipality but the Vice Mayor also performs functions that are Teacher tip specific to their positions. They need different offices (or compartments) to avoid conflict in their functions. Select a fruit that can be easily peeled like calamansi or dalandan Introduce the concept of surface area-volume ratio/relationship to the learners. Show a fruit to the learners and explain that the outer surface of the fruit is the surface area. Peel the fruit and show them what’s inside, explaining that the inside of the fruit is the volume. Explain to the learners that surface area (SA) and volume (V) do not increase in the same manner. As an object increases in size, its volume increases as the cube of its linear dimensions while surface area increases as the square of its linear dimensions. Example: If the initial starting point is the same: SA = 2; Volume = 2 (Ratio = 1:1) A one-step increase will result to: SA = 22 = 4 while V = 23 = 8 (Ratio = 1:2) Teacher tip Ask questions to the learners while giving INSTRUCTION/DELIVERY (30 MINS) the lecture. If an LCD projector is not available, draw Explain and discuss the nature and functions of the Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) to the learners. the structure of the mitochondria and Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP)—It is the major energy currency of the cell that provides the energy for chloroplast on the board. most of the energy-consuming activities of the cell. The ATP regulates many biochemical pathways. Mechanism: When the third phosphate group of ATP is removed by hydrolysis, a substantial amount of free energy is released. ATP + H2O → ADP + Pi where ADP is adenosine diphosphate and Pi is inorganic phosphate Group the learners into pairs. Ask one to draw the endomembrane system as he/she explains it to his/ her partner. Reshuffle the groupings and repeat until all learners have performed the exercise. 18 Illustration 1: Energy release in Hydrolysis (Source: (n.d.). Retrieved from http://scienceaid.co.uk/biology/biochemistry/atp.html) Illustration 2: Chemical Energy and ATP (Source: (n.d.). Retrieved from http://winklebiology.weebly.com/chemical-energyatp.html) Synthesis of ATP ADP + Pi → ATP + H2O requires energy: 7.3 kcal/mole occurs in the cytosol by glycolysis occurs in mitochondria by cellular respiration occurs in chloroplasts by photosynthesis Consumption of ATP ATP powers most energy-consuming activities of cells, such as: anabolic (synthesis) reactions, such as: joining transfer RNAs to amino acids for assembly into proteins synthesis of nucleoside triphosphates for assembly into DNA and RNA synthesis of polysaccharides synthesis of fats active transport of molecules and ions conduction of nerve impulses maintenance of cell volume by osmosis addition of phosphate groups (phosphorylation) to different proteins (e.g., to alter their activity in cell signaling) muscle contraction beating of cilia and flagella (including sperm) bioluminescence Extracellular ATP In mammals, ATP also functions outside of cells. ATP is released in the following examples: from damaged cells to elicit inflammation and pain from the carotid body to signal a shortage of oxygen in the blood from taste receptor cells to trigger action potentials in the sensory nerves leading back to the brain from the stretched wall of the urinary bladder to signal when the bladder needs emptying In eukaryotic cells, the mitochondria and chloroplasts are the organelles that convert energy to other forms which cells can use for their functions. Discuss the function and structure of the mitochondria. 20 Mitochondria (singular, mitochondrion)—Mitochondria are the sites of cellular respiration, the metabolic process that uses oxygen to drive the generation of ATP by extracting energy from sugars, fats, and other fuels. The mitochondria are oval-shaped organelles found in most eukaryotic cells. They are considered to be the ‘powerhouses’ of the cell. As the site of cellular respiration, mitochondria serve to transform molecules such as glucose into an energy molecule known as adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP fuels cellular processes by breaking its high-energy chemical bonds. Mitochondria are most plentiful in cells that require significant amounts of energy to function, such as liver and muscle cells. Figure 1: Structure of the Mitochonsdria (Source: (n.d.). Retrieved from http://www.britannica.com/list/ 6-cell-organelles) The mitochondria has two membranes that are similar in composition to the cell membrane: Outer membrane—is a selectively permeable membrane that surrounds the mitochondria. It is the site of attachment for the respiratory assembly of the electron transport chain and ATP Synthase. It has integral proteins and pores for transporting molecules just like the cell membrane Inner membrane—folds inward (called cristae) to increase surfaces for cellular metabolism. It contains ribosomes and the DNA of the mitochondria. The inner membrane creates two enclosed spaces within the mitochondria: intermembrane space between the outer membrane and the inner membrane; and matrix that is enclosed within the inner membrane. Ask questions to the learners on the structure of the mitochondria. A sample question could be: What is the importance of the enfolding of the mitochondria? The response would be to increase the surface area that can be ‘packed’ into such a small space. Discuss the purpose of the mitochondrial membranes. 22 As mentioned, the mitochondria has two membranes: the outer and inner mitochondrial membranes. Outer Membrane Teacher tip fully surrounds the inner membrane, with a small intermembrane space in between has many protein-based pores that are big enough to allow the passage of ions and molecules as large as a small protein Lecture on mitochondrial membranes can be accessed at (n.d.). Retrieved from Inner membrane. is loaded with proteins involved in electron transport and ATP synthesis surrounds the mitochondrial matrix, where the citric acid cycle produces the electrons that travel from one protein complex to the next in the inner membrane. At the end of this electron transport chain, the final electron acceptor is oxygen, and this ultimately forms water (H20). At the same time, the electron transport chain produces ATP in a process called oxidative phosphorylation During electron transport, the participating protein complexes push protons from the matrix out to the intermembrane space. This creates a concentration gradient of protons that another protein complex, called ATP synthase, uses to power synthesis of the energy carrier molecule ATP. Figure 4: The Electrochemical Proton Gradient and the ATP Synthase (Source: (n.d.). Retrieved from http://www.nature.com/scitable/topicpage/mitochondria-14053590) Explain and discuss the structure and functions of the Chloroplasts. Chloroplasts—Chloroplasts, which are found in plants and algae, are the sites of photosynthesis. This process converts solar energy to chemical energy by absorbing sunlight and using it to drive the synthesis of organic compounds such as sugars from carbon dioxide and water. The word chloroplast is derived from the Greek word chloros which means ‘green’ and plastes which means ‘the one who forms’. The chloroplasts are cellular organelles of green plants and some eukaryotic organisms. These organelles conduct photosynthesis. They absorb sunlight and convert it into sugar molecules. They also produce free energy stored in the form of ATP and NADPH through photosynthesis. Chloroplasts are double membrane-bound organelles and are the sites of photosynthesis. The 22 chloroplast has a system of three membranes: the outer membrane, the inner membrane, and the thylakoid system. The outer and the inner membranes of the chloroplast enclose a semi-gel-like fluid Teacher tip known as the stroma. The stroma makes up much of the volume of the chloroplast. The thylakoid system floats in the stroma. If an LCD projector is not available, draw the structure of the chloroplast on the board. Structure of the Chloroplast Outer membrane—This is a semi-porous membrane and is permeable to small molecules and ions which diffuse easily. The outer membrane is not permeable to larger proteins. Intermembrane Space—This is usually a thin intermembrane space about 10-20 nanometers and is present between the outer and the inner membrane of the chloroplast. Inner membrane—The inner membrane of the chloroplast forms a border to the stroma. It Lecture on structure and functions of the chloroplast can be accessed at (n.d.). regulates passage of materials in and out of the chloroplast. In addition to the regulation activity, Retrieved from. membrane of the chloroplast. It is the space outside the thylakoid space. The chloroplast DNA, chloroplast ribosomes, thylakoid system, starch granules, and other proteins are found floating around the stroma. Thylakoid System The thylakoid system is suspended in the stroma. It is a collection of membranous sacks called thylakoids. Thylakoids are small sacks that are interconnected. The membranes of these thylakoids are the sites for the light reactions of the photosynthesis to take place. The chlorophyll is found in the thylakoids. The thylakoids are arranged in stacks known as grana. Each granum contains around 10-20 thylakoids. The word thylakoid is derived from the Greek word thylakos which means 'sack'. Important protein complexes which carry out the light reaction of photosynthesis are embedded in the membranes of the thylakoids. The Photosystem I and the Photosystem II are complexes that harvest light with chlorophyll and carotenoids. They absorb the light energy and use it to energize the electrons. The molecules present in the thylakoid membrane use the electrons that are energized to pump hydrogen ions into the thylakoid space. This decreases the pH and causes it to become acidic in nature. A large protein complex known as the ATP synthase controls the concentration gradient of the hydrogen ions in the thylakoid space to generate ATP energy. The hydrogen ions flow back into the stroma. Thylakoids are of two types: granal thylakoids and stromal PRACTICE (10 MINS) thylakoids. Granal thylakoids are arranged in the grana. These Group the learners into pairs. Ask one to draw the mitochondria and circular discs that are about 300-600 nanometers in diameter. The label its parts while the other does the same for chloroplast. Once stromal thylakoids are in contact with the stroma and are in the form done, the partners exchange tasks (i.e., the learner that drew the of helicoid sheets. mitochondria now does the same for the chloroplast). The granal thylakoids contain only Photosystem II protein complex. Reproduce these diagrams without the labels and use these for the This allows them to stack tightly and form many granal layers with class activity. granal membrane. This structure increases stability and surface area for the capture of light. To demonstrate how folding increases surface area, ask the learners to trace the edges of the outer membrane with a thread and The Photosystem I and ATP synthase protein complexes are present measure the length of the thread afterwards. Repeat the same for in the stroma. These protein complexes act as spacers between the the inner membrane. Compare the results and discuss how the sheets of stromal thylakoids. enfolding of the inner membrane increases surface area through folding. 24 ENRICHMENT (30 MINS) 1. Using the figure below, ask learners to compute surface area vs. volume. 2. Draw the table on the board and instruct the learners to write their measurements.

This shall help the learners to understand the connection of the game with the lesson. At the end of the activity, ask one or two learners what they think the learning objectives of the lesson will be. Immediately proceed with the Introduction. Check how the class behaves during the activity. If the learners get rowdy, you may choose to stop the game. Make sure to warn the learners of the consequences first before the start of the activity. INSTRUCTION/DELIVERY (95 MINS) Teacher tip Facilitate a five-minute review on the Hierarchy of Biological Organization and on the concept of “form Do not use too much time for the review. fits function”, the unifying theme in Biology. Just make sure to guide or lead the learners in remembering past lessons. Provide clues if necessary. Review on Hierarchy of Biological Organization 1. Discuss that new properties arise with each step upward the hierarchy of life. These are called emergent properties. 2. Ask the class what the levels of biological organization are. The learners should be able to answer this since this is just a review. In case the class does not respond to the question, you may facilitate the discussion by mentioning the first level of the hierarchy. 3. Start with the cell since it is the most basic unit of life that shows all life properties. cells tissue organ organ system multicellular organism Illustrate this by showing photos of the actual hierarchy using animals that are endemic in the Philippines (e.g., pilandok, dugong, and cloud rat). Teacher tip For the review on “form fits function”, if the class does not respond well, start giving your own examples for the students to Review on the unifying theme in Biology: “form fits function” figure out this unifying theme. Make sure to relate structure to function. 1. Ask the class what the relation of form (structure) to function and vice versa is Mention the role of fossils in determining 2.
