Paragraph: (Science-textbook/science-g5-46.txt)
Sent 1: Living things need non-living matter as well as energy.
Sent 2: What do you think matter is used for?
Sent 3: One thing is to build bodies.
Sent 4: They also need it to carry out the processes of life.
Sent 5: Any non-living matter that living things need is called a nutrient.
Sent 6: Carbon and nitrogen are examples of nutrients.
Sent 7: Unlike energy, matter is recycled in ecosystems.
Sent 8: You can see how in Figure 3.11.
Sent 9: Decomposers release nutrients when they break down dead organisms.
Sent 10: The nutrients are taken up by plants through their roots.
Sent 11: The nutrients pass to primary consumers when they eat the plants.
Sent 12: The nutrients pass to higher level consumers when they eat lower level consumers.
Sent 13: When living things die, the cycle repeats.

Question: What is the beginning of the life cycle? (true/0)

Carbon
Decomposers release nutrients when they break down dead organisms
Decomposition

Question: Non-living matter in living things is called nutrients and a couple of these nutrients are what? (false/1)

Decomposers
Carbon
Nitrogen
Carbon and nitrogen

Question: Name an example of a nutrient and what it can do. (false/2)

Question: Which organisms allow plants to absorb nutrients from their roots? (true/3)

Composers
Decomposers

Question: What are two things matter is used for? (true/4)

Question: Are carbon and nitrogen considered living or non-living? (false/5)

Living
Non-living

Question: How are nutrients recycled? (true/6)

In factories
When taken up into plants through the roots, and later eaten
Through death

Question: How are the nutrients processed? (false/7)

Through the roots
The roots take up the nutrients they are passed on to those that eat the plants and then are passed to higher level consumer who eat the lower ones
By eating

Question: Describe this scenario of recycling nutrients in an example. (true/8)

I can place plant food in the soil where my tomato plants grow. A rabbit comes along and eats the tomato. A hunter kills the rabbit for food and eats it
Living things die and go extinct as a result of interaction with other animals
Nutrients pass to primary consumers
Nutrients pass through consumers

Question: Can you name something that matter is used for? (true/9)

Carry out process of life
Building bodies
To carry out life processes,among other things
Decomposition

Question: What happens to nutrients when the decomposers use them to break down dead organisms? (true/10)

Disapear
Take up by plants
The nutrients are taken up by plants through their roots, pass to primary consumers when they eat the plants, and pass to higher level consumers when they eat lower level consumers

Question: What is one thing non-living matter used for? (false/11)

Build bodies
Carry out life process
Fishing
Hunting

Question: Name living or nonliving things that uses energy (true/12)

Question: What can matter be used to build? (false/13)

Bodies
Roots

Question: What do living things need? (false/14)

Question: What do living things use non living matter for? (false/15)

Question: What happens so plants can take nutrients in through their roots? (false/16)

Dead organisms decompose and release nutrients
Nutrients pass to primary consumers
Decomposers release nutrients
