1 St. Mary s Catholic High School-Dubai Name. Year6. Science revision (2) Date a) Green beans contain vitamin C? Which other food is a good source of vitamin C? Put a cross to show the correct answer. Cheese chicken eggs oranges. 2. Cheese is a source of calcium. Why do we need calcium? Draw a line from each nutrient to a good source of that nutrient in our diet. 4. Tick two boxes to show which two statements about the life processes of the living microorganisms are true: In the fish tank The micro-organisms need nutrients. The micro-organisms do not grow. The micro-organisms do not reproduce. The micro-organisms can move. 5. Jo and Sabia are finding out about pulse rate and exercise. Their teacher tells them two ways they can measure pulse rate. Jo says, Method 2 is better because it gives results more quickly. a) Give ONE other reason why method 2 is better at measuring pulse rate than method 1.. Jo and Sabia plan an investigation. Their plan is shown below. 1

b) Write a question Jo and Sabia could use their plan to investigate.

c) Why is it important that the same person does all the exercises during their investigation?

...beats per minute e) Which graph shows what will happen to Jo s pulse rate if she runs at the same

2 b) Write a question Jo and Sabia could use their plan to investigate. Jo exercises and Sabia records Jo s pulse rate. c) Why is it important that the same person does all the exercises during their investigation? The table shows their results. d) What was Jo s pulse rate after skipping for 2 minutes?...beats per minute e) Which graph shows what will happen to Jo s pulse rate if she runs at the same speed for 15 minutes, starting from rest? Put a cross in one box to show the correct answer. 6. Tree leaves absorb light from the sun. Put a cross in one box to show the life process for which leaves absorb light. Reproduction nutrition movement germination 7. Observe the main group of plants. moss fern conifer i) Which group of plants reproduce by seeds but do not produce a flower? ii) Which group of plants produce spores? 2

8. Each organism shown below is either a vertebrate or an invertebrate. Into which sub-group would you place each one?

Circle the correct answer: i)which of the following are functions of the blood?

correct statement about red blood cells?

They are very narrow blood vessels They contain haemoglobin They contain valves They have thick muscle vi)one of the functions of plasma is.

3 8. Each organism shown below is either a vertebrate or an invertebrate. Into which sub-group would you place each one? Give one key feature that helped you to decide which sub-group each organism belongs to. Vertebrate/Invertebrat e: Sub-group: Feature: 9.Circle the correct answer: i)which of the following are functions of the blood? It forms part of the body's defence mechanism It transports waste to cells It transports food to cells It transports oxygen to cells ii)which is the correct statement about red blood cells? They help the blood to clot They can be produced by a type of blood cell They fight against disease They have no nucleus iii)which is the correct statement about white blood cells? They can be produced by a type of blood cell They contain haemoglobin They help the blood to clot They protect the body against disease iv)one of the functions of white blood cells is... to carry carbon dioxide to carry oxygen to engulf microbes to help the blood to clot v)which is the correct statement about capillaries? They are very narrow blood vessels They contain haemoglobin They contain valves They have thick muscle vi)one of the functions of plasma is... to carry carbon dioxide from the organs to the lungs to form blood clots to carry oxygen from the lungs to the organs to protect the body vii) One correct statement on platelets is They fight against disease They help the blood to clot They contain haemoglobin They are produced by the kidneys viii) What term is used to describe a substance that people can become dependent on? Addictive drug harmful medicine ix) The picture shows to peppered moths. The moths are the same species, but are found in different habitats. ix) x) What has caused the difference between these two moths? Cloning inheritance variation selective breeding 3

xi) Which of the following groups breathe through moist skin and lungs, and need water to breed? Amphibians crustaceans fish reptiles 9. The picture shows the skeleton of a deer.

(i) How does thick fur help an Arctic hare and an Arctic fox to survive during the winter?...... The Arctic fox hunts and eats Arctic hares.

4 xi) Which of the following groups breathe through moist skin and lungs, and need water to breed? Amphibians crustaceans fish reptiles 9. The picture shows the skeleton of a deer. Give three functions of a skeleton In winter, the fur of the Arctic hare and the Arctic fox becomes thicker and turns white. (i) How does thick fur help an Arctic hare and an Arctic fox to survive during the winter? The Arctic fox hunts and eats Arctic hares. (ii) How does white fur help Arctic hares to survive in the snow?... 11i) The function of the lung is to.. ii)the function of the heart is to iii)show the location of the heart with an x. In 1928 a scientist called Alexander Fleming grew micro-organisms called bacteria. Growth shows that bacteria are living things. The bacteria grew on agar(jelly) in glass dishes. After a few days, Fleming saw mould growing in one of the glass dishes. (i)sort the five things in the box below into living and non living things. One is done for you. (bacteria glass dish mould agar(jelly) human) Living things Non living things bacteria Growing is a life process. Name one other life process. Bacteria can cause disease. Fleming thought he could use the mould to help cure disease caused by bacteria. Look at the pictures above for Day 1 and Day 6. Use the evidence in the pictures to explain why Fleming thought the mould could be used to cure 4

5 disease. Fleming used the mould to make a medicine called penincillin. It took over 10 years for penincillin to be first used by doctors. Write true or false to show why it took a long time for penincillin to be used as a medicine. 1)The medicine had to be tested to make sure it was safe.. 2)Scientists had to find a way of making lots of penincillin at a time.. 3)It took 10 years for the mould to start growing. 4)Fleming needed to check that his ideas were correct... Some children are finding out about plants. they get three buttercup plants. They put each plant in a place with different conditions. After twoweeks the buttercup plant looks like this: Write A,B and C in the table below to match each place to the conditions found there. There are differences between plants. These differences help people sort plants into groups. Write true or false next to each reason that explains why plants need to be sorted into groups. 5

6 Describe the relationship between how many children are playing in a place and the number of common plantains found there. The buttercup plant has a long thin stem. The long thin stem of the buttercup plant stops it surviving in places where lots of children play. Explain why. 6
