1 Structure & Function Classwork Name: 1. How does a porcupine defend itself? Describe the structure and function. 2. How does a shark eat? Describe the structures and their function. 3. How does a cheetah run fast? Describe the structures and their function.

2 Structure & Function Homework Name: Pay attention as you eat dinner tonight. 1. What structures on your body did you use as you ate your food? 2. Write each structure and its function in the chart below. How did each structure help you to eat dinner? Structure Function

3 Animal Structure & Function Classwork Name: Draw a line, matching each bird with the correct function for its beak. Uses its strong beak to pierce frogs and fish. Scoops up many fish at one time in its beak. Tears apart fish with its beak. Sticks its beak into the sand and mud to search for food.

4 Animal Structure & Function Homework Name: For each structure below, write a sentence about how it helps the animal to survive. 1. A scorpion s stinger 2. A mouse s ears 3. An eagle s eyes

5 4. A giraffe s neck 5. A polar bear s fur 6. A monkey s fingers and thumbs

6 Plant Structure & Function Classwork Name: Fill in the chart with the function of each plant structure. Structure Function Flower Stem Leaves Roots Fruit

7 Plant Structure & Function Homework Name: 1. Draw a flower on the next page. Label each part: Flower Stem Leaves Roots 2. Draw an arrow along the right side of the stem to show in which direction water will travel in a plant. 3. Draw an arrow along the left side of the stem to show in which direction food will travel in a plant. 4. Where is pollen located in a plant? 5. What is the purpose of fruit?

8

9 Responses Classwork Name: Each box shows a green seed that is buried in soil. The sun in each picture is magic. It always stays in the same place. It does not move during the day. 1. In each picture, draw the direction that the roots will grow. 2. In each picture, draw the direction that the plant will grow.

10

11 Responses Homework Name: Complete the chart with an example of how each sense can help the animal in the picture to respond to its environment. Sense Sight Response Taste Touch Hearing Smell

12 Structure, Function Classwork / Homework Answer Key Structure & Function Classwork 1. A porcupines spines are sharp. They will hurt anything that tries to hurt the porcupine. 2. A shark s teeth are sharp and can tear food apart. 3. A cheetah s legs have strong muscles that help the cheetah to run fast. Structure & Function Homework Answers will vary. Examples of structures used while eating: fingers, thumb, jaw, teeth, eyes, nose, tongue. Animal Structure & Function Classwork Uses its strong beak to pierce frogs and fish. Scoops up many fish at one time in its beak. Tears apart fish with its beak. Sticks its beak into the sand and mud to search for food.

13 Animal Structure & Function Homework 1. A scorpion s stinger helps the scorpion to protect itself. 2. A mouse s ears helps it to hear noises and to stay away from danger. 3. An eagle s eyes help it to see. This helps the eagle to find food and to see danger. 4. A giraffe s neck helps it to eat food that is at the top of the trees. Since the head is up high, it can see danger. 5. A bear s fur protects it from cold weather. 6. A monkey s fingers and thumbs help it to grasp food. Plant Structure & Function Classwork Structure Function Flower Creates pollen which helps to make seeds. Stem Supports the plant and transports water and food. Leaves Make food. Roots Take in water from the soil. Fruit Hold seeds that help new plants to grow. Plant Structure & Function Homework 1. Make sure each structure is labeled correctly. 2. The arrow should point up from the roots to the top of the plant. 3. The arrow should point down from the leaves to the rest of the plant. 4. Pollen is located inside the flower. 5. The fruit holds seeds that help new plants to grow. Responses Classwork The roots in each seed will grow down into the soil. The plant will grow towards the sunshine. (Picture #1 to the left. Picture #2 straight up. Picture #3 to the right.) Responses Homework Answers will vary.
