1 | SC:1.2 | Living things have different structures and behaviors that allow them to meet their basic needs. |
1 | SC:1.2.a | Animals need air (oxygen), water and food to survive |
1 | SC:1.2.a1 | most animals and plants need water, food and air to stay alive. |
1 | SC:1.2.a2 | Identify structures and behaviors used by mammals, birds, amphibians, reptiles, fish and insects to move around, breathe and obtain food and water (e.g., legs/wings/fins, gills/lungs, claws/fingers, etc.) |
1 | SC:1.3.a | Some organisms undergo metamorphosis during their life cycles; other organisms grow and change, but their basic form stays essentially the same. |
1 | SC:1.3.a1 | Explain that living things experience a life cycle during which they undergo a predictable sequence of changes from birth, growth, reproduction and death. |
1 | SC:1.3.a2 | Distinguish between animals that are born alive (e.g., humans, dogs, cows) and those that hatch from eggs (e.g., chickens, sea turtles, crocodiles). |
1 | SC:1.3.a3 | Compare and contrast the changes in structure and behavior that occur during the life cycles of animals that undergo metamorphosis with those that do not. |
3 | SC:3.2.a | Plants and animals have structures and behaviors that help them survive in different environments. |
4 | SC:4.2 | All organisms depend on the living and nonliving features of the environment for survival. |
K | SC:K.2 | Many different kinds of living things inhabit the Earth. |
