What is a life cycle?
Gr 5 Natural Sciences and Technology – Term 1, Topic 5
This is the
process
that an
animal or plant
moves through from the
moment that it is
created
until the
time that it dies.
Different ways of growing
Gr 5 Natural Sciences and Technology – Term 1, Topic 5
•
There are
many different types of
animals and plants
on our planet.
•
They have
different life cycles
– think
about how the life of a frog or chicken
starts and how a cat’s life begins?
Plant life cycle
Gr 5 Natural Sciences and Technology – Term 1, Topic 5
The flowers produce
pollen
and
unfertilized seeds
(these can't yet grow new plants).
Insects, birds or other animals carry the pollen from
one flower to the next - this is
called pollination.
The
pollen fertilizes the ovules
in the flower.
The
fertilized ovules now develop into seeds.

The
seeds are then dispersed

Fruit and flowering plants
Gr 5 Natural Sciences and Technology – Term 1, Topic 5
Flowers and fruit plants
have slightly
different life
cycles.
Both involve flowers
,
but with a fruit the flower dies
and as the seed grows into the fruit – so fruit trees
have extra bits to their cycle.

Explore the fascinating world of life cycles in plants and animals through engaging visuals and descriptions. From the process of germination to the different stages of growth and development, discover how living organisms move through their life cycles. Topics include plant pollination, seed dispersal, and the unique life cycles of fruit and flowering plants. Delve into the intricate details of how life begins, evolves, and ends in the natural world.
