Living things, including plants and animals, depend on each other and the environment to survive
Elaborations
- investigating how plants provide shelter for animals
- investigating the roles of living things in a habitat, for instance producers, consumers or decomposers
- observing and describing predator-prey relationships
- predicting the effects when living things in feeding relationships are removed or die out in an area
- recognising that interactions between living things may be competitive or mutually beneficial
