3) Distance from the sea

4) Direction from which the winds blow

5) Humidity and rainfall.

Note - The detailed information can be collected

from the content given in the lesson.

Question 1 Fill in the blanks:

Question 4 Learn the answers for the following questions:

a) Why do places near the Equator receive more heat than those near the poles?

Ans- Near the Equator the sun’s rays are vertical and spread over a small area whereas

when we move away from the Equator towards the poles the sun’s rays become

slanting and fall over a large area. That is why Equator receives more heat than poles.

b) Write the difference between the moderate climate and extreme climate.

Ans- Places near the coast have a moderate climate i.e. neither too hot nor too cold

whereas places away from the coast have an extreme climate i.e. too hot and too cold.

c) Why do Chennai have a moderate climate?

Ans- Chennai experiences a mild or moderate climate as it is near the coast.

d) How do winds influence the climate of a place?

Ans – Winds influence the climate of a place in such a way that winds blowing from

L-2 ANIMALS EVERYWHERE

ORGANS OF BREATHING

Animals need to breathe to get oxygen. Animals get their supply of oxygen

from their surroundings. Microbes or microscopic animals, like amoeba and

paramecium, breathe through their body surface. Insects like grasshoppers

and cockroaches breathe through air holes on their bodies. These holes are

called spiracles. The blood of insects does not contain the oxygen carrier

called hemoglobin.

Some animals like earthworms take in oxygen through their thin, moist

skin.

A fish breathes through its gills. A frog is an amphibian. A baby frog or a

tadpole breathes through its gills. An adult frog breathes through its lungs

on land and through its moist skin in water. Reptiles, birds and mammals

breathe with the help of lungs. Whales and dolphins are also mammals.

Therefore, they are lung breathers even though they live in water.

ORGANS OF FEEDING

The beaks and claws of birds are modified according to the kind of food

they eat.

Rodents like rabbits, mice and squirrels have small and sharp front teeth.

They eat seeds and fruits.

Herbivores like cows, goats and giraffes have sharp front teeth for biting

and strong broad teeth for chewing. They eat green plants.

Carnivores like the lion, tiger and cat have very sharp, pointed and curved

front teeth for tearing flesh. They also have strong grinding teeth to chew

the flesh and the bones. They feed on the flesh of other animals.

Flesh -eating birds like eagles, kites and vultures have strong, sharp and

hooked beaks and claws to catch their prey and to tear flesh.

Refer to LESSON: 2: “ANIMALS EVERYWHERE”

PART – BREATHING IN ANIMALS AND FEEDING HABITS IN ANIMALS,

while doing the questions.

Question 1 Tick the correct answers:

1. (Amoeba/whale/ dolphin) breathes through its body surface.

2. A baby frog or a tadpole breathes through (air tubes/body surfaces/gills).

3. (Birds/ crabs/ prawns) breathe through lungs.

4. A frog is an amphibian because it can live (only on land/on land and in water /only

in water /none of these).

5. Whale and dolphins are classified as (fish/reptiles/mammals/amphibians).

Question 2 Change the underlined words to make correct statements.

1. Animals get their supply of oxygen from food.

2. Gills are special organs with which all mammals breathe.

3. The blood of an insect does not contain the carbon-dioxide carrier called

hemoglobin.

Question3: Answer the following questions:

a) How is the breathing process of an insect different from that of fish?

b) What is the difference in the way a tadpole and a frog breathe?
