4TH QUARTER GRADE 9 SCIENCE PERFORMANCE TASK

Deadline: April 29, 2022, FRIDAY

You have learned from your previous lesson that
energy is the ability or capacity to do work. Energy
comes in different forms: chemical, electrical,
nuclear, thermal, sound, light, and mechanical.
Everything you do makes use of energy—thermal
or heat energy to cook food, electrical energy to
power appliances, electronic gadgets, and factory
machines; chemical energy from food to do daily
activities, and solar energy to facilitate
photosynthesis. Indeed, energy is related to work.
Food is your main source of energy. The
chemical energy in food can be converted to
another form of chemical energy when it is stored
in the body as glucose or as fat. It can be converted into thermal energy because our body produces heat
when digesting our food. The chemical energy in our food can also be transformed into mechanical energy
in the form of muscle movement.

Task:
1. Keep a record of the food (with their amount, say a glass of milk) you take for a week together
with their energy content (you can find it in the food label). Don’ forget to indicate the amount of
food or serving that you took per meal and its energy content. You may search for it in the internet
if it’s not in the food label.
2. Take a picture of one (1) meal you are having for the week. It may be your breakfast, lunch,
dinner, or snacks. Attach it on the last page.
3. Record also the regular exercises that you do and how long. Research on the amount of energy
needed by a teenager like you.

Submit your work in word document (for those submitting online) to your respective teacher on or
before the deadline ([email protected]). You may also print your project in a short bond
paper and submit it in school.

Below is a sample template for your project. Fill up the table and answer the questions in complete
sentences.

Do you exercise? How often do you exercise? How long do you exercise?
Yes, I do exercise, which is zumba. I do my exercise for about three times a week. As a general goal,
aim for at least 30 minutes of zumba. I love doing zumba because it can help lower my risk of heart
disease, reduce my blood pressure and bad cholesterol, and boost my good cholesterol and
especially it can boost my heart healthy.

Are you into sports? What sport/s are you in? If no, indicate what activities you do at home that
prove that you do not have a sedentary lifestyle.
Yes, I’m into sports, which is volleyball. I played volleyball every afternoon with my cousin if I have
free time. And I enjoyed playing volleyball eversince the pandemic started because volleyball can
improve my mood, reduce stress, improve my self-confidence, self-esteem, my body image and
make me feel happier about life in general. And also in playing volleyball it will strengthen the
upper body, arms and shoulders as well as the muscles of the lower body. Playing volleyball also
improves the cardiovascular and respiratory systems.

Research on how much calories per day is required for a teenager like you. Are you taking in
enough or too little?
Calories provide energy, which we need to survive and perform daily activities. The calories we get
from food and beverages allow us to breathe, walk, run, laugh and even pump blood. Based on my
research, calorie needs are often higher during the teenage years than any other time of life.
During this period of rapid growth and development, girls require an average of 2,200 calories a
day and for boys require an average of 2,800 calories a day.

What kind of food can provide you with adequate amount of energy to do your daily tasks? List
down at least 5 examples.
Along with exercising, hydrating, and getting enough sleep, the foods you eat play an essential
role in keeping your energy levels high. The 5 foods that can provide us with adequate amounts of
energy to do our daily activities are fresh, seasonal fruits and vegetables because the fresher your
food is, the more nutrients it will contain. The second one is, Red meats, because it marbled in fat
adds saturated fat to your diet. Leaner meats, like chicken, turkey, and fish, still provide quality
protein, but contain less saturated fat. The third one is, Oats, they’re not just for breakfast. A big
bowl of oats packs a punch of filling fiber and even a little protein. Plus, it’s good for people who
experience blood sugar spikes and drops with other processed breakfast cereals. The fourth one
is, Fatty fish, because fish, in general, is an excellent and light source of protein and B vitamins
that may give the body sustained energy throughout the day. And the fifth one is, eggs, because
they are one of the most nutrient-dense foods you can eat.
