Grade 5 - Science - On Level

NameDate

  1. Which inputs does the pea plant use to make food?

    • oxygen, sand, and darkness
    • soil, rocks, and Moonlight
    • sugar, fruit, and wind
    • water, carbon dioxide, and sunlight

  2. What is the role of Sun energy when a maple sapling makes food?

    • it makes the plant eat insects
    • it provides energy for making sugars
    • it replaces the need for water
    • it becomes soil inside the roots

  3. Which product is made by the oak seedling during food-making?

    • sugars used for growth
    • stored sugar
    • food sugars
    • sugar

  4. Which evidence best supports the claim that pea plants build growth material from air and water?

    • the plant gains most growth material from air and water
    • the plant's food energy started as light energy
    • leaves use light energy to make food
    • air and water provide materials for new plant tissue

  5. Why is "plants get all their food from soil" a weak explanation for a sunflower?

    • plants cannot use water
    • soil is the only source of plant matter
    • plants make sugars using air, water, and light energy
    • sunlight is a solid material

  8. Which product is made by the tomato plant during food-making?

    • stored sugar
    • plant food
    • food sugars
    • sugar molecules

  9. Which evidence best supports the claim that oak seedlings build growth material from air and water?

    • the plant uses air and water to build new plant matter
    • the plant gains most growth material from air and water
    • soil supports the plant but is not the main source of its mass
    • air and water provide materials for new plant tissue

  10. Why is "plants get all their food from soil" a weak explanation for a tomato plant?

    • plants make sugars using air, water, and light energy
    • plants cannot use water
    • sunlight is a solid material
    • soil is the only source of plant matter
