2. The organs are in a similar position to those
in a human and some look similar.
1. Control centre for the body.
2. By nerves.
3. Sense organs have special cells called sensors.
These respond to stimuli and send messages to
the brain via the nerves. The brain recognises
the stimulus, interprets the message and sends
messages via the nerves to respond to the
stimulus.
4. Brain, nerves and spinal cord.

Page 15: The brain
1. a) The brainstem is also known as the
medulla. It connects the brain to the
spinal cord. It is responsible for breathing,
digestion and circulation. It is concerned
with involuntary muscle action, for
example the heart and in digestion. It sorts
messages to and from the brain.
b) The cerebellum is also called the little
brain. It is concerned with balance,
movement and co-ordination. It is also
associated with emotions and learning.
c) The skull is the bony protection inside
which the brain is situated.

1.
trachea
(windpipe)
lung
2. Answers will vary, for example: The apple begins
its journey in your mouth, where saliva begins
to break it down. It travels down the food pipe
and into the stomach, where it is churned up and
broken down by stomach acid. The liver produces
bile to aid digestion. The broken-down apple
then passes into the small and large intestines
where nutrients from it are absorbed into the
body. Any remaining waste matter is passed
through the rectum and out through the anus.

produce urine.
Page 32: The excretory (urinary)
system
Answers will vary, for example:
Drink plenty of water: Water allows your
kidneys to function properly and filter everything
they need to.
Eat a balanced, healthy diet: Eating the
right foods means that your kidneys will have
less work to do.

2. Saliva
3. Food is churned up and broken down by
stomach acid into liquid.

Do not drink alcohol or smoke: Smoking and
drinking alcohol means that your kidneys have to
work harder to remove toxins from your blood.

2. Answers will vary, for example: An ice-cube
is solid. When it gets warm or is heated, it
begins to melt and turn into liquid. This
liquid is water. When water is heated it turns
into a gas called water vapour and evaporates
into the air.

Air resistance is acting against the force of gravity.
The bigger the canopy, the greater the air resistance,
and so it takes longer to reach the ground. The
smaller the canopy, the lower the air resistance, and
so it takes less time to reach the ground.
