What You'll Learn

Animals can be classified as herbivores (plant eaters), carnivores (meat eaters), or omnivores (eating both plants and animals). Their teeth and digestive systems are adapted to their diet.

Key Words

  • species
  • organism

Steps

Step 1 โ€” Read

Look at the vocabulary words and write a definition for each in your own words.

Step 2 โ€” Do

Step 3 โ€” Observe

Compare the before and after states.

Step 4 โ€” Record

Write your conclusion: did the results match your hypothesis? What would you change next time?
