### **Page 1: Mathematics - Data Table & Calculations**
*(Write this on the page before or next to your bar graph)*
**Activity:** Understanding Cancer Through Data and Science
**Task 1: Data Representation and Analysis**
**Sample Data Table:**
* **Oral Cancer:** 300 cases
* **Lung Cancer:** 250 cases
* **Blood Cancer:** 200 cases
* **Skin Cancer:** 150 cases
* **Brain Cancer:** 60 cases
* **Bone Cancer:** 40 cases
* **Total Cases:** 1,000
**Percentage Distribution Formula:**
**Calculations:**
* **Oral Cancer:** \left(\frac{300}{1000}\right) \times 100 = 30\%
* **Lung Cancer:** \left(\frac{250}{1000}\right) \times 100 = 25\%
* **Blood Cancer:** \left(\frac{200}{1000}\right) \times 100 = 20\%
* **Skin Cancer:** \left(\frac{150}{1000}\right) \times 100 = 15\%
* **Brain Cancer:** \left(\frac{60}{1000}\right) \times 100 = 6\%
* **Bone Cancer:** \left(\frac{40}{1000}\right) \times 100 = 4\%
### **Page 2: Conclusions**
*(Write this right below your bar graph)*
**Conclusions Based on the Data:**
1. **Highest Prevalence:** Oral cancer accounts for the highest share of cases (30%) in this dataset, showing it is the most common type in the sampled group.
2. **Major Categories:** Lung cancer (25%) and Blood cancer (20%) form the next largest groups, making up nearly half of the total cases combined.
3. **Lowest Prevalence:** Bone cancer (4%) and Brain cancer (6%) have the lowest distribution, indicating they are significantly rarer forms of cancer in this data.
### **Page 3: Science - Detection & Treatment Techniques**

**Task 2: Scientific Exploration**
**1. Importance of Ultrasound and Radiation Techniques:**
* **Ultrasound (Cancer Detection):** Ultrasound utilizes high-frequency sound waves to create real-time images of internal organs and tissues. It is highly important because it helps doctors safely differentiate between fluid-filled cysts (usually benign) and solid masses (which could be cancerous) without exposing the patient to harmful ionizing radiation.
* **Radiation Therapy (Cancer Treatment):** This technique uses controlled, high-energy radiation beams (like X-rays) to target and destroy cancer cells. The radiation damages the DNA inside the cancer cells, preventing them from dividing and growing, while medical advanced techniques ensure surrounding healthy tissues receive minimal exposure.

*(Write this final section to finish the assignment)*
**2. Commonly Used Cancer Medicines and Their Elements:**
Below are three vital chemotherapy medications used in cancer treatment along with the primary chemical elements that make up their structures:
1. **Cisplatin**
* *Used for:* Treatment of lung, ovarian, and testicular cancers.
* *Elements Present:* **Platinum (Pt)**, **Chlorine (Cl)**, **Nitrogen (N)**, and **Hydrogen (H)**.
2. **Carboplatin**
* *Used for:* Treatment of advanced ovarian, lung, and brain cancers.
* *Elements Present:* **Platinum (Pt)**, **Carbon (C)**, **Hydrogen (H)**, **Nitrogen (N)**, and **Oxygen (O)**.
3. **Cyclophosphamide**
* *Used for:* Treatment of blood cancers (leukemias and lymphomas) and breast cancer.
* *Elements Present:* **Carbon (C)**, **Hydrogen (H)**, **Chlorine (Cl)**, **Nitrogen (N)**, **Oxygen (O)**, and **Phosphorus (P)**.
