Remember

In nature there are living things and non-living things. Living things depend

on three basic life processes: nutrition, sensitivity and r epr  oduction .Living things are made up of cells.

1. Match the two columns.

Reproduction

Ingest food substances, transform them for their utilisation and eliminate waste.

 Nutrition

Sensitivity

Perceive what is happening around themand respond to what they perceive.

Create offspring similar to themselves.

2. Label the parts of the plant cell.

nucleus cytoplasm membrane wall

3. True or False? Write T or F.

A cell is the smallest unit which makes up living and non-living

things. Cells have three parts: membrane, nucleus and  plasma.

Cells group together to form tissues.

Living things made up of many cells are called unicellular .

■ Living things 3

4 ■ Classification of living things

Remember

Living things are classified into large groups called kingdoms.

The three principal kingdoms are the animal kingdom , the plant kingdom 

and the fungi kingdom .

1. Label the pictures: animal kingdom, plant kingdom or fungi kingdom.

2. Match the characteristics to the kingdom.

They make their own food.

They are anchored to the ground. Animals

They have a nervous system

and sense organs.Plants

They depend on other  living things for food. Fungi

They move from one place to another .

■ Answer the questions.

•  How are fungi and  plants similar? 

•  How are fungi and animals similar?

Remember

Plants can be classified into: non-flowering plants and flowering plants .

 Non-flowering plants never produce flowers or seeds.

They reproduce with spores. Examples are mosses and fer ns .

Flowering plants produce flowers and seeds to reproduce.

They can be classified into angiosperms and gymnosper ms .

1. Complete the word map.

in the right conditions.

• Ferns have thick underground and large leaves.

• Gymnosperm seeds are grouped together in .

• Angiosperm seeds develop inside the .

• are called deciduous plants. This is the most numerous plant group.

Remember

Plants use sexual reproduction or asexual reproduction to reproduce.

• Sexual reproduction uses flowers and seeds. There are three stages:

 pollination, seed formation and fruit formation.

• Asexual reproduction uses other plant parts like tubers,  bulbs

or stolons.

1. Label the parts of the flower.

ovary sepal  petal stamens ovules

2. Order the stages of plant reproduction. Write 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5.

The flower changes into a fruit.

Pollination takes  place.

Pollen forms on the stamen.

The seeds germinate.

Seeds form inside the fruit.

3. Match the two columns.

Bulbsare horizontal stems which develop roots and create

new plants when a node touches the ground.

Stolonsare thick subterranean stems which store

many nutritive substances.

Tubers are horizontal, subterranean stems.

Remember

Everything in the universe is made up of matter. Matter is made up of 

tiny particles called atoms.

Matter can be classified into: pure substances , which are made of only one

kind of element or compound, or mixtures, which are made of several  pure

substances.

Matter has general properties like mass and volume, and characteristic

 properties like density.

1. Identify and write pure substance or mixture.

•  bread

• flour 

•  water   

•  granite  

■ What is the difference between pure substances and mixtures? Explain.

2. Use the words to describe a homogeneous and a heterogeneous mixture.

Rememberthat individual components cannot be distinguished inhomogeneous mixtures, but in heterogeneous mixtures they can.

marbles flour milk sugar cocoa water 

Homogeneous mixture  

Heterogeneous mixture  

3. Match each property of matter with the correct definition.

Mass per unit volume. Volume

The amount of matter in an object. Density

The amount of space an object occupies. Mass

Remember

Matter can undergo chemical changes like oxidation, combustion and

 putrefaction, and physical changes like fragmentation, expansion, movement,

contraction, as well as changes of state.

When matter  changes from one state to another, a change of state occurs.

There are six types of changes: melting, solidification, boiling, evaporation,

condensation and sublimation.

1. Identify the change of matter taking place.

•  A substance changes when it  burns. c

•  An object changes  position. m 

•  An object gets  bigger  when the temperature rises. e

•  A substance changes when it reacts with oxygen. o

The atmosphere is the layer of air which surrounds the Earth. It is made up

of various layers. The troposphere is the lowest layer. Plants and animals can

only live here, and weather  phenomena occur  here.

The hydrosphere is all the water on the  planet.

The water cycle is the constant circulation of water on the Earth.

Remember

The coast is the area where the land meets the sea. Coastal plains are

low-lying coasts  and often have long, sandy  beaches. Mountainous or very

elevated coasts are called high coasts . They usually have rocky cliffs and coves.

Some coastal landforms are: capes, gulfs, peninsulas, islands, marshes and

estuaries.

Rivers are moving bodies of water. They originate in the mountains and

flowinto the sea, a lake or another river. We can distinguish three elements

The flow is the amount of water a river carries.

The flow regime  is the flow pattern of a river during the year .

1. Match the two columns.

Flow The flow pattern of a river during the year .

Remember

Prehistory extends from the time the first human beings appeared

up to the invention of writing. It can be divided into two periods:

The Stone Age gets its name from the stone used to make simple tools.

This period can be divided into the Palaeolithic and the Neolithic.

The Age of Metals gets its name from the metals used to make tools.

In this period, people invented the plough and wheel, and also builtthe first cities.

The Christians remained in the north of the peninsula. In 1230

the Christian territory was divided into four large kingdoms:

the Kingdom of Navarre, the Crown of Aragon, the Crown of Castile and Portugal.

In 1492, the Catholic Monarchs conquered Granada, the last taifakingdom.
