Read page 9 and answer the question to the right.

All that new bone, muscle, blood, and skin doesn't appear from nothing. Since an animal is made of matter, when it grows it needs to add more matter to its bones, muscles, and other parts. That's how animals grow.

Question 8
8.

What do animals need to do to grow?

Read page 10 and answer the question to the right.

The new matter needed for growth comes from what an animal eats. Food is also made of matter. When an animal eats food, it is eating billions and billions of atoms and molecules. These atoms and molecules are all matter that the animal uses to grow. Inside the animal's body, the food molecules are broken down and used to build new molecules that make up bone, blood, muscle, skin, and other body parts.

Question 10
10.

How do animals use matter to grow their body?

Read page 11 and answer the question to the right.

Not all the matter that an animal eats gets added to the animal's body. Some of the matter isn't used by the animal. This matter ends up as different kinds of waste, including droppings. More important, the animal uses some of the food matter to get energy. (Animals need every to move and do all of the things animals do.) When an animal uses matter to get energy, that matter is changed and released as gases into the air.
