Chapter 2 – Exploring the Plant World

15.   The green material in plants is chlorophyll. With the help of sunlight and chlorophyll, the leaf will make a simple sugar called glucose.

17.   Mushrooms grow from spores.

18.   The plant’s job:

Seed to grow new plants. Flower makes seeds. Steems take minerals and water from the soil. Stem carry foods. Leave make food

19.   The plant makes its own food. This process is called photosynthesis.

20.   The three main parts of seeds are seed coat, young plant, and food for the young plant. The seed coat is the hard outer covering of a seed. What happens to the seed coat when the seed begins to sprout? The seed coat pops open, falls off, and dies.

21.   To grow into a plant, the seeds need water, soil, and the right temperature.

Sunflower


Chapter 3 – Exploring the World of Vertebrate

22.   Animals with backbones are called vertebrates, and animals without backbones are called invertebrates.

23.   Briefly list the five ways that all mammals are alike:

They make milk for their babies and take care of their young.

They have hair/fur and has 4 limbs

They are warm-blooded.

Most give birth to live young.

Mammals breathe with lungs.

24.   Fish are alike in three ways: All fish have gills, all fish have fins and all fish are coldblooded. Fish breathe air with gills.

25.  Salmon are very interesting fish. They hatch in freshwater streams, swim downstream to the sea. Then one day, after they have grown, they swim back to the place where they hatched.

31.   Many insects go through four stages of growth during their lives: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. This is called metamorphosis.

32.   Spiders are not insects. Spiders have only two parts: a head and thorax.

33.   A caterpillar eating a lot of after it hatches.  A new butterfly’s wings must be dry before it can fly. An insect has 6 jointed legs.

34.   Energy moving through space from its source to an object, then from that object to our eyes called light. Energy ia ability to do work: Sound vibration traveling through the air are called sound waves.
