Changed variable: presence of warmth

Aim of experiment
3 Madam Lee wants to find out if wannth is needed for the seeds to grow.
She has four identical cOntainers, A, 8, C and D, containing the same
amount of cotton wool and beans. The containers are placed under
different conditions as shown in the table below.

Container Presence of Presence of Location

air water
A Yes Yes in an op�ri fi�ld-
B No Yes next to a window
C Yes No on a kitchen table
D Yes Yes in the free?;er

Which two containers should Madam Lee use to conduct a fair test?

(1) A and 8
(2) A and D
(3) B and C
(4) Cand D )

Properties of light:
1) Light travels in a straight line
2) Light can be reflected
A light source gives out light
eg Bulb, sun, TV, torchlight etc
Properties of light:
1) Light travels in a straight line

1)

Why Ali can read the book?

1) Line from the bulb shines
on the book,
2) Light from the book is reflected
to his eyes
Properties of materials:
1) transparent
2) translucent
3) opaque
 Conditions for seed germination:
Air, water and warmth
Function of: Seed leaf
1) Seed leaf provides food
for the young plant when
it cannot make food
shoots

Roots

Roots appear first or the shoots? Roots appear first to take water.

Roots absorb water and mineral salt from the soil
