IMPROVE YOUR LEARNING

I. Conceptual Understanding

1. Give some examples of animals that have thick fur on their skin.

• Examples: Sheep, Polar Bear, Yak, and Alpaca.

2.Why is a hen called oviparous?

• A hen is called oviparous because it lays eggs, and its young ones hatch from these eggs.

3. Sarath says that the duck and the crocodile belong to the same group. Do you agree, why or why not?

Yes, they both belong to the group of oviparous animals because they lay eggs. However, they are different in habitat and lifestyle. Ducks are birds, and crocodiles are reptiles.

II. Questioning and Hypothesis

4. What will happen if there are no crows?

If there are no crows, the natural ecosystem will be disrupted. Crows help clean the environment by feeding on waste and dead organisms. Without them, waste accumulation might increase, leading to a polluted environment.
