TOTAL NUMBER OF MARKS SCIENCE 7 YEAR STUDENT NAME: CLASS INTERDEPENDENCE & PLANT REPRODUCTION Building on from Key Stage 2, you will start to understand how living things interact with one another and how energy travels from one organism to the next. This is important so we can make informed choices about things like conservation, farming and the food we eat. We will also learn about how plants reproduce; something really important to human survival on Earth. 7 RESPIRATION & PHOTOSYNTHESIS Building on from year 7, you will start to understand how living things are dependant on one another and the importance of this. As we lose species from our planet each day it is vital that we see the importance of protecting them. Understanding how we use out food to release energy is fundamental in developing our understanding out our bodies and what they are capable of. As plants don’t eat it is important to understand photosynthesis and why plants do it to survive. 8 9 BIOENERGETICS Respiration and metabolism are key life processes which help to explain how our bodies function. AEROBIC RESPIRATION ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION EXERCISE & RESPIRATION FOOD CHAINS & FOOD WEBS DISRUPTION TO FOOD CHAINS ECOSYSTEMS KEY: RP = REQUIRED PRACTICAL WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN? At KS2 you will have looked at the life cycles of mammals, birds, insects and amphibians.

This gives you the opportunity to see how things would function without our interference and, as a result, to developing opinions about how we as humans are disrupting this functioning and whether or not we need to do something to stop it before it is too late and there is nothing left to save.
