Animal Structures & Functions
Students will be able to recognize that living things are made up of parts. Different animals use their body parts in different ways to see, hear, grasp objects, protect themselves, move from place to place, and seek, find, and take in water and air. Plants also have different parts (roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits) that help them survive and grow. These parts are the structure of an organism to carry out its life functions. Some external parts of organisms are easy to see; others may be so small that magnification is needed. Some internal parts may not be obvious unless students look inside the object.
