You need to show you understand how living things' bodies and behaviours help them survive in their environment. You'll write about things like how an animal is built, what it eats, how it reproduces, and how it adapts to where it lives. You must use proper science language and explain how all these features connect to keeping the organism alive.
You correctly identify and describe some body structures or behaviours of an organism and explain in basic terms how they help it survive in its environment using some science vocabulary.
You describe multiple features of an organism (structures, behaviours, and adaptations) and clearly explain how each one helps it survive, using appropriate science language throughout.
You provide a detailed explanation of how an organism's various features (body structures, behaviours, and adaptations) all work together as an interconnected system to support its survival and reproduction in its specific environment.
