1. WATER
RESOURCES
and
BIODIVERSITY

2. In your own
words, what
is resources?

3. Differentiate
resources made
by humans and
those gathered
from nature.

9. BODIES OF WATER
• The occurrence of the monsoon is the
results of the interactions of these
landmasses and bodies of water with
the atmosphere.
• Bodies of the water that surround the
Philippines are the sources of
seasonal rain that fall on land.

10. Water Resources
Effect of Water
1. It have a moderating effect on land
temperature or on climate.
2. Oceans and large lakes heat up and cool
down more slowly than the land masses.
3. In summer, a body of water remains cooler
than the land surrounding it.
4. Winds blowing from over the water keep
the surrounding countryside cooler than it
would be if the water body was not present.

water into a stream and its tributaries.

15. WATERSHED
-- come in all shapes and sizes.
-- are not just water. It may include
combination of forest, grassland marshes
and other habitats.

16. Some factors that will affect the
amount of water in watersheds
a. Vegetation Cover
b. Slope of the Area
c. Kind of Soil
d. Amount of rainfall
e. Temperature

17. Main Functions of a Watershed
1. The production of a continuous water
supply that would maintain the life
forms within it and in the area fed by
its stream.
2. Moderate temperature.

18. Some Watershed that can be
found in the Philippines

19. Activity

**Showing ways on how to keep
watersheds’ healthy or how to protect
the watersheds and the importance of
it.
