Can anyone help suggesting an answer? I suspect the answer in the assessment book is either wrong or the question is poorly formulated.

Thanks.

Based on the pics alone, you can't tell the texture, so C is definitely out. the rest are correct.

Totally agree. Unless the question states the species of the leaves, then perhaps the textures can be known

no choice, must follow teacher's answer. sometimes feel difficult to explain to our kids.

Hi,
I posted your question to my child and he immediately said that his teacher told the whole class not to simply write 'living/non-living thing' as the answer for such questions. They were told to state characteristics or what are their physical attributes (eg bat vs bird, both have wings).
Science is indeed tricky. :roll:

The question is similar to a question in My Pals are Here - Diversity P3&4 - pg11. The question in the textbook asked \"WHY are Zoe (cat) and Teddy (toy) so different?
The answer given in the textbook:-
They are different because Zoe is a LIVING THING and Teddy is a NON-LIVING THING.
