Basic Needs of Living Things: Year 4 Science

The document discusses the basic needs of living things like animals and plants. It provides examples of how different organisms need water, food, air/oxygen to survive. For example, it notes that if a fish is placed in a tank with a layer of oil on top, blocking its access to oxygen, it will die after a week. It also provides examples showing that while mushrooms can grow without light, plants placed in sunlight without water will wilt after a few days. The document tests readers on identifying the basic needs of living things and human excretory organs.
