Hi,
You have to check if her school has covered the relevant topics that is similar to the past year CA papers from other schools. My child's school is only testing up to Plants; so he is using 'guesswork/common sense' for those questions pertaining to Animals and Micro-organisms.

Teachers always use green beans,soaked with water in a cotton bud in an experiment. May I ask how do green bean come from?Is it from bushes, trees,or others?

You very cute. Green beans are found inside pods (black in colour). The green bean plant is a creeper (weak stem that needs to climb onto support such as fence). So you need to break open the pods to see the green beans inside it (something like groundnut)

The question goes like this. The heading is "Animals that reproduce by laying eggs" Then it has group X and Group Y. Animals in group X consist of Frog, Housefly and butterfly. As for Group Y, they have chicken, cockroach and crocodile. So they ask which of the following group of animals are correctly classify in group X and Y


A) Mosquito and Pigeon
B) Grasshopper and Snake

Answer is A but why ? Pls kindly advise urgently. Thanks a ton.

Hi atutor2001, the green bean plant we grew at home recently didnt creeep nor twine. It grew upright to a height of about 30 cm and started producing pods containing green beans.

Thank you Happy Mama for sharing your knowledge. Can't trust my memory nowadays because I remembered having green bean plants that twine (when I was a little girl).

Hi all,

What does it mean the stages of growth in a plant is recognizable just like in an animal? TIA
