BRIEF INTRODUCTION
Lesson
Let’s Learn
How does a plant grow? How does a seed turn into a plant? Seeds grow into
new plants. For a seed to grow into a plant, it must first sprout, or germinate.
Do you know that all seeds require oxygen, water, and the proper
temperature range in order to germinate? Oxygen and moisture, initially
taken in through the seed coat and later by the root, help the seed get
energy from its food supply. Different types of seeds have specific
temperature requirements for germination. Many seeds also require
proper light conditions to germinate. Some require light, while others are
inhibited from germinating by light.
Germination is the process in which the embryo or baby plant gets energy from the
stored food in the seed and starts to grow.

Plants are living things. They grow and reproduce like any other living things. They
follow a cyclic process of starting a new life, growing, and then coming back to the starting
stage (reproducing). Plants start their life from a seed and grow-up to become a mature plant.

refers to the way insects develop, grow, and change form, usually accompanied by change
of habitat or behavior.
Most insects go through the four stages of metamorphosis such as butterfly, mosquito,
and housefly. Some animals such as cockroach and grasshopper go through only three
stages in their life cycle. Let’s explore more on the life cycle of these insects.

4. Draw the stages of the life cycle of the insect. Cut and paste them in each of the
three sections on the paper plate.

5. Once glue has dried up, label each section with the stages: 1. Egg 2. Nymph 3. Adult
6. Draw arrows from one stage to the next. This will show the progression of the
organism’s growth.
REMEMBER
1. All living things go through changes as they grow and
develop. The process where organisms change and
develop is called metamorphosis.
2. Most insects go through the four stages of
metamorphosis such as butterfly, mosquito, and
housefly. These insects go through complete
metamorphosis.
3. Some animals such as grasshopper, dragonfly, and
cockroach only go through three stages in their life cycle.
These insects go through incomplete metamorphosis.
3. How does life cycle of a grasshopper differ from life cycle of a butterfly?
