Life Science Standards



SC.3.L.14.1: Describe structures in plants and their roles in food production, support, water and nutrient transport, and reproduction. Students will identify and/or describe:
  • How plants respond to stimuli.
  • Processes of reproduction in flowering plants.
SC.3.L.14.2: Investigate and describe how plants respond to stimuli (heat, light, gravity), such as the way plant stems grow toward light and their roots grow downward in response to gravity.

SC.3.L.17.2: Recognize that plants use energy from the sun, air, and water to make their own food.

SC.3.L.15.2: Classify flowering and non-flowering plants into major groups such as those that produce seeds, or those like ferns and mosses that produce spores, according to their physical characteristics.

SC.3.L.15.1: Classify animals into major groups (mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, arthropods, vertebrates and invertebrates, those having live births and those which lay eggs) according to their physical characteristics and behaviors.

SC.3.L.17.1: Describe how animals and plants respond to changing seasons.
