                      The situations below show a number of incidents that happened while
                      Amir and his friends were doing activities 1, 2 and 3.

                      Activity 1                                    Activity 2

                       The balloon                                    There is something
                       expands 20 minutes  Maybe there’s              moving in this drop of
                       after the activity.    gas trapped in          pond water.
                       What caused it         this balloon.
                       to expand?














                                    What is growing on
                      Activity 3
                                    top of these three             What conclusion can
                                    slices of bread?               you make from these
                                                                   three activities?

                       Choose one type of microorganism
                       you have identified. Build a model           Which of the following microorganisms
                       of the microorganism using recycled          makes its own food through
                       materials and present it with extra          photosynthesis?
