Elements of a Map

A map is a drawing that represents the earth or part of it on a flat surface.
The key elements of a map include:

Title - is the name given to a map. It is usually written at the top or the bottom of the map
Frame - is the border that is drawn around a map
Key/legend - contains the symbols and signs that have been used on a map. It shows what the signs and symbols represent. Symbols are small pictures, drawings or letters. They represent real objects on a map.
Scale - shows the relationship between the distance on the map and the real distance on the ground.
Compass - shows the direction of places on a map. A good map should have the five key elements.

Importance of Maps include:

Locating the directions and position of places
Identifying the direction and position of places
Identifying our neighbours
Locating various physical features
Guiding tourists to their destination.

This referred to giving meaning to the features and symbols used on a map.
We use the key elements of a map to read and interpret maps. Symbols and signs helps us to identify the different features, areas and activities on a map e.g.
The presence of a quarry shows that mining is taking place in the area.

Market - shows that trading activities is taking place in the area
Game reserved - shows the presence of wild animals.
A sawmill - shows that timber processing takes place in the area.
Scrubland - shows that the area is dry.

- Functions of human skeleton
Types of Muscles
- Functions of Skeleton Muscles (Voluntary muscles)
Breathing system

Sense Organs

Human have five basic senses, namely sigh, smell, taste and feeling or touch
The organs associated with each senses send informations to the brain to help us understand and perceive the world around us.

Functions of sense organs

These organs include;
1. Tongue - for taste
2. Ears for hearing
3. Nose for smell
4. Skin – for feeling or touch

Clean the ears using cotton buds.
By no putting sharp objects into the nose or ears.

Skeleton and Muscles

Parts of a human skeleton

The human body is a complex design made of various system and structures
The parts that make the human skeleton are the skull, the rib cage and the smooth muscles.

Functions of human skeleton

This is the structure made of bones, cartilages and connective tissues; it serves the following functions;
1. The skull protects the brain from injuries
2. Backbone provides support to the body and helps the body to remain upright
  - It also makes the person flexible.
  - It is also known as human spine
  - It is made up of 33 bones called the vertebrae . these bones stretches from the neck to the pelvis and protect the spinal cord.
  - The backbone provides support to the body,allowing the body to stand , bend or twist.
  - The backbone also protect the brain and the body
3. The rib cage protects the heart and the lungs
  - It is made up of curved bones called lungs
  - It is found in the chest area
  - It protects a person’s internal organs from damage and gives structures to the test.
  - Most human beings have 12 pairs of rib bones
4. The limbs bones support the weight of the human body.
  - They also help a person to move
  - There are 30 bones in each lower limps(leg) these are,
    1. Femur – is a single bon of the thigh, its rounded head connects with the hip socket to form the hip join. There are 30 bones in each upper limb (arm)
    2. The humerus is the single bone of the upper arm and the ulna and the radius are the paired bones of the forearms. Other bones include:
      1. Tibia
      2. Fibula
      3. Seven tarsal bones
      4. Five metarsal bones and 14 phalanges

Types of Muscles

It is a tissue that functions as a source of power
It is a bundle of fibrous tissue in a human or animal body that can contract, producing movements in the body maintaining the position of the part of the body.
The human body has three types of muscles
1. Cardiac muscles – these muscles make up the mass of the heart and are responsible for the heart’s rhythmic contractions.
2. Skeleton muscles - they connect to and control the motions of the human skeleton. They are found between the bones and use tendons to connect to bones. They are controlled voluntarily and are concerned with movement, posture and balance of human body.
3. Smooth muscles – are control involuntarily. They are found in the walls of blood vessels ,urinary bladder , the intestine and stomach

Functions of Skeleton Muscles (Voluntary muscles)

support and help the body move
Control the body temperature
Keep the body upright
Protect the organs of the body

Breathing system

Parts of human breathing system

System – the human body is like a factory that is made of many parts. These parts work in groups called system
The breathing system has both visible parts such as the nose, internal parts such as the trachea, lungs and diaphragm. These parts work together to enable human being to breathe.

Functions of breathing system

Breathing – this is the mechanism of taking air and blowing out air.\
Air blow from outside into the nose through nostril. The nose has tiny hairs that clean the air by trapping dusts. At the back of the nose these is membrane that produces mucus which makes the air moist, warm and clean.
The trachea is called windpipe, it receives air from the nose,it has C- shaped ring that keep it strong and open. The walls of the windpipe have mucus and tiny hairs that filter air and keep it clean. The trachea acts as a passage for air from the nose into the lungs
A human being has two lungs
Membrane that produces mucus, which makes the air moist, warm and clean.
The trachea is also called the windpipe. It receives air from the nose. It has C-shaped rings that keep it strong and open. The walls of the windpipe have mucus and tiny hairs that filter the air and keep it clean. The trachea acts as passage for air, from the nose into the lungs
A human being has two lungs located inside the chest. The lungs are a pair of airfilled organs. The lungs take in the oxygen in the air and take out carbon dioxide that the body does not need.
The diaphragm is located under the lungs. It controls breathing. It separates the chest from the abdomen. It helps to fill the lungs with air when breathing in.
It also helps to take out air when breathing out.
Breathing is essential for the living process of human beings to continue.

Diseases that affect the human breathing system

The human breathing system is affected by many diseases. They include:

Mipango yote ya sherehe ya kuzaliwa kwa baba yangu ilikuwa imepangwa ikapangika.Ilikuwa siku ya tatu ya juma. Baba alikuwa akikamilisha miaka thelathini na tisa. Yeye hakuwa amekula chumvi nyingi kama alivyokuwa babaye Meishisana.

Mapochopocho ya vyakula mbalimbali yalikuwa yakinukia mezani na hata mekoni. Vyakula kama vile pilau, biriani , maandazi na vibanzi vilivutia sana machoni pa wageni watano waalikwa. Nilishangaa nilipomwona Bwana Kauleni akidondokwa na mate kwa sababu ya kuitamani keki yenyewe. Watu wengine ambao sikuwatambua kwa majina yao, walikuwa wameketi kitako sebuleni huku wamejipamba kweli kweli. Bila shaka wote walijawa na tabasamu nyusoni pao. Keki yenyewe ilikuwa tamu kama halua.
