    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    Which of the following are features of all living things?

    • A.

      Living things need food.

    • C.

      Living things need water

    • D.

      All of the above

    Correct Answer
    D. All of the above
    Explanation
    All living things require food, air, and water for their survival and functioning. These are essential features that are common to all living organisms. Food provides the necessary nutrients and energy, air is needed for respiration, and water is essential for various metabolic processes and maintaining hydration. Therefore, all of the given options are correct as they represent the fundamental requirements of living things.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    Which of the following things can grow?

    • A.

      Aeroplane

    • B.

      Key

    • C.

      Bottle

    • D.

      Fish

    Correct Answer
    D. Fish
    Explanation
    Fish can grow because they are living organisms that have the ability to increase in size over time. They undergo a process called growth, where they develop and mature, allowing them to become larger and more mature individuals. This growth is facilitated by various factors such as nutrition, genetics, and environmental conditions. Fish have the ability to grow throughout their lifespan, allowing them to reach their full size and potential.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    Which of the following things given below cannot live without food.

    • A.

      Fan

    • B.

      A plant

    • C.

      A Toy

    • D.

      A Chair

    Correct Answer
    B. A plant
    Explanation
    A plant cannot live without food because it undergoes photosynthesis, a process in which it converts sunlight, water, and nutrients into energy. Without food, plants would not be able to produce the necessary energy for growth and survival. Unlike a fan, toy, or chair, which do not require food to function or survive, a plant relies on nutrients from the soil and other sources to sustain itself.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    Which of these is a living things.

    • A.

      Fan

    • B.

      A plant

    • C.

      A Toy

    • D.

      A Chair

    Correct Answer
    B. A plant
    Explanation
    A plant is considered a living thing because it exhibits characteristics of life such as growth, reproduction, and response to stimuli. Plants are able to grow and develop, they can reproduce through processes like pollination and seed production, and they respond to their environment by growing towards light and adapting to changes in temperature and moisture levels. Additionally, plants require energy in the form of sunlight and nutrients to survive, further indicating their living nature.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    All Living things can _______ from one place to another.

    • A.

      Water

    • B.

      Non Living Things

    • C.

      Air

    • D.

      Move

    Correct Answer
    D. Move
    Explanation
    Living things have the ability to move from one place to another. This is a characteristic that distinguishes them from non-living things. Movement allows living organisms to search for food, find shelter, escape from predators, and reproduce. While some living things may have limited mobility, such as plants that move towards sunlight or animals that can only move within a small range, the ability to move is a fundamental aspect of life.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    A Chair cannot move as it is ________ things.

    • A.

      Non Living Things

    • B.

      Water

    • C.

      Air

    • D.

      Move

    Correct Answer
    A. Non Living Things
    Explanation
    A chair cannot move as it is classified as a non-living thing. Non-living things do not possess the ability to move on their own as they lack the necessary biological or physical mechanisms for mobility. Unlike living organisms, such as animals or humans, chairs are inert objects that require an external force or agent to be moved from one place to another. Therefore, the fact that a chair is categorized as a non-living thing explains why it cannot move on its own.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    Living things cannot live without_______.

    • A.

      Air

    • B.

      Fan

    • C.

      Plant

    • D.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    A. Air
    Explanation
    Living things cannot live without air because air is essential for the process of respiration. Respiration is the process by which living organisms take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide. Oxygen is necessary for the production of energy in cells, and carbon dioxide is a waste product that needs to be eliminated. Without air, there would be no source of oxygen for living organisms, leading to their inability to survive.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    Which of the following things remain same in size after many years.

    • A.

      Fish

    • B.

      Teddy Bear

    • C.

      Plants

    • D.

      Dog

    Correct Answer
    B. Teddy Bear
    Explanation
    Teddy Bears remain the same in size after many years because they are inanimate objects made of fabric and stuffing. Unlike living organisms such as fish, plants, and dogs, which can grow and change in size over time, teddy bears do not have the ability to grow or age. Therefore, their size remains constant throughout the years.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    Living things will die if they don't get________.

    • A.

      Air

    • B.

      Food

    • C.

      Water

    • D.

      All of the above

    Correct Answer
    D. All of the above
    Explanation
    Living things require air, food, and water to survive. Without air, organisms cannot breathe and obtain the oxygen necessary for cellular respiration. Without food, organisms cannot obtain the nutrients and energy required for growth and maintenance. Without water, organisms cannot maintain their bodily functions, as it is essential for various metabolic processes and helps regulate body temperature. Therefore, the statement "Living things will die if they don't get all of the above" is true, as the absence of any of these essential elements can lead to the death of living organisms.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    Which of the following is correct about living things?

    • A.

      Living things need food to grow

    • B.

      Living things remain same in size

    • C.

      Living things cannot eat

    • D.

      All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Living things need food to grow
    Explanation
    Living things need food to grow because food provides the necessary nutrients and energy for their growth and development. Without food, living things would not have the resources to build new cells and tissues, repair damaged ones, or carry out essential biological processes. Additionally, food is required for living things to obtain the necessary molecules and substances they need to survive and function properly. Therefore, the statement "Living things need food to grow" accurately describes the fundamental requirement of living organisms for growth and sustenance.

    Rate this question:

    • C.

      Living things need food to live.

    • D.

      None of the above

    Correct Answer
    C. Living things need food to live.
    Explanation
    Living things need food to live because food provides the necessary energy and nutrients for their survival and growth. It is through the process of consuming and digesting food that living organisms obtain the essential substances needed for their bodily functions. Without food, living things would not be able to carry out their metabolic processes, maintain homeostasis, or sustain their life functions. Therefore, the need for food is a characteristic that distinguishes living things from non-living things.

    Both a Rabbit and a Tree are living things because they exhibit the characteristics of life. They are made up of cells, grow and develop, reproduce, respond to stimuli, and require energy to survive. On the other hand, a Car is not a living thing as it does not possess any of these characteristics.

Growth is a characteristic of living organisms and is essential for their survival and reproduction. Plants, animals, and even humans exhibit growth throughout their lifespan, as they increase in size, develop new tissues, and undergo physiological changes. Therefore, this statement accurately reflects the concept of growth in living things.
