Cells, Organs, & Systems
What is the smallest building block of a living thing?
What is a cell?
What are the four main types of teeth humans have?
What is incisors, canines, premolars, and molars.
What part of a plant absorbs water from the soil?
What is roots?
What organ helps animals process information from their senses?
What is the brain?
What is a stimulus?
What is something in the environment that causes an organism to react?
What is an organ? Give one example.
What is a group of tissues working together to perform a job. Example: heart?
What type of teeth do carnivores use to tear meat?
What is canines?
What part of a plant transports water to other parts?
What is stem?
What are the five senses?
What is sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch?
What is a response?
What is a reaction to a stimulus?
Put these in order from smallest to largest: organ, cell, organ system, tissue.
What is Cell → Tissue → Organ → Organ system?
Why do animals have different types of tails?
What is tails help animals balance, communicate, swim, defend themselves, or swat insects?
What are the functions of the roots, stem, leaves, and flower?
What is roots absorb water, stems support and transport materials, leaves make food, and flowers help with reproduction?
What happens after your senses collect information from the environment?
What is the information travels to the brain, which processes it and sends signals to the body to respond?
What is a tropism?
What is a plant's growth response to something in its environment?
What is an organ system, and why are all its parts important?
What is a group of organs working together. Each part has a specific job that helps the entire system function?
How are the shapes of herbivore teeth different from carnivore teeth?
What is herbivores have flatter teeth for grinding plants, while carnivores have sharper teeth for tearing meat?
What is capillary action, and why is it important to plants?
What is capillary action helps water move through tiny tubes in a plant, helping transport water throughout the plant?
How does the eye gather light to help us see?
What is light enters through the pupil and is processed by the visual system, allowing the brain to create vision?
How do plants respond when they grow toward sunlight?
What is plants grow toward light through a process called phototropism?
Explain how cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems work together to keep an organism alive.
What is cells form tissues, tissues form organs, and organs work together in organ systems to keep living things functioning?
How are animal structures, such as teeth, tails, and beaks, adapted to help animals survive?
What is teeth help animals eat, tails help with movement and balance, and beaks help animals gather and eat different foods?
Explain how water travels from the roots through a plant and why this is important for survival.
What is water is absorbed by roots and travels through tiny tubes in the stem to the leaves and other parts of the plant. Plants need water to survive and grow?
Explain how information travels from a stimulus through the senses to the brain and causes a response.
What is the senses detect a stimulus, send information to the brain, and the brain processes it and sends signals to the body to respond?
Give an example of a plant responding to a stimulus. Identify the stimulus and the response.
What is an example: A plant grows toward sunlight.
Stimulus: sunlight.
Response: the plant grows toward the light?
