Study Notes
Graph Types
- Pictographs use images to represent data. Each image represents a specific number of items.
- Bar graphs display data using bars of varying heights.
- Line graphs show information that is connected.
- Pie graphs display data as sections of a circle, showing proportions.
- Table graphs use rows and columns to organize data.
Data Analysis
- Data is information gained from observation and experimentation.
- Analyze data to identify causes, key factors, possible results.
- Interpret data to understand its meaning.
- Conclusions are statements that accept or reject hypotheses. Recommendations suggest improvements to procedures.
Living Things
- Living things use energy to grow, respond to their environment, and reproduce.
- Non-living things do not grow, respond or reproduce.
- Living characteristics include movement, respiration, sensitivity, growth, reproduction, excretion, and nutrition (MRS GREN).
Classification of Living Things
- Living things are categorized into groups.
- Animals are classified by size, shape, color, body features, diet, or habitat.
- Animals can be vertebrates (with backbones) or invertebrates (without backbones).
- Microorganisms are tiny living things too small to see without a microscope.
Animal Classification
- Animals are classified according to size, shape, color, body features, food, or habitat.
- Herbivores eat plants, carnivores eat meat, omnivores eat both.
- A predator eats another organism (the prey).
Plant Classification
- Plants are categorized based on root systems, stems, and whether they flower.
- Taproots are thick primary roots, while fibrous roots are small and branching.
- Soft stems are flexible and green, while woody stems are stiff and have bark.
- Flowering plants produce flowers and seeds, while non-flowering plants do not.
- Conifers are plants that reproduce with cones; ferns and mosses reproduce with spores.
Ecosystems
- Forests are large areas with trees and other plants.
- Tundras are cold, dry regions with snow and little plant life.
- Grasslands are areas with primarily grasses.
- Producers make their own food.
- Consumers eat other organisms.
- Decomposers break down dead organisms/matter.
