4/20

Give an example of an animal's habitat.

4/20

A crow's habitat includes trees where it nests and around urban areas where it finds food.

5/20

What is an ecosystem?

5/20

An ecosystem is a community of living organisms interacting with their physical environment.

6/20

List the characteristics of living things.

6/20

Living things grow, reproduce, respond to stimuli, and require energy.

7/20

What is a food chain?

7/20

A food chain shows how energy and nutrients flow from one organism to another in an ecosystem.

8/20

Distinguish between herbivores and carnivores.

8/20

Herbivores eat plants, while carnivores eat other animals.

9/20

What is the purpose of observing plants and animals?

9/20

Observing plants and animals helps us understand biodiversity and the health of ecosystems.

10/20

Explain 'adaptation'.

10/20

Adaptation is a change in an organism that helps it survive and reproduce in its environment.

11/20

What is a common mistake when observing animals?

11/20

A common mistake is disturbing their natural behavior, such as trying to touch or feed them.

12/20

Define 'habitat'.

12/20

A habitat is the natural environment where a particular species lives.

13/20

List different types of plants based on their features.

13/20

Plants can be classified as shrubs, trees, herbs, or grasses based on their height and structure.

14/20

What are the signs of a healthy ecosystem?

14/20

Signs include diverse species, balanced food chains, and clean resources like air and water.

15/20

What is the significance of birds in nature?

15/20

Birds help in pollination, seed dispersal, and insect control, contributing to ecosystem balance.

16/20

How do plants reproduce?

16/20

Plants reproduce through seeds, flowers, or vegetative parts like roots and stems.

17/20

Describe the relationship between plants and animals.

17/20

Plants provide oxygen and food for animals, while animals help in pollination and seed dispersal.

18/20

What types of movements do animals exhibit?

18/20

Animals can move by walking, flying, swimming, or crawling, depending on their species.

19/20

What can we learn from nature walks?

19/20

Nature walks teach us about biodiversity and encourage observation and appreciation of our environment.

20/20

Define 'flora' and 'fauna'.

20/20

'Flora' refers to plant life in a particular area, while 'fauna' refers to animal life.
