Read the statements below and write ‘T’ for the statements that are true and ‘F’ for the statements that are false. Statements True/False 1 Air is mainly made up of nitrogen and oxygen. 2 The air we breathe out contains more carbon dioxide than the air we breathe in. 3 Water vapour makes up 1 % of the air around us. 4 Oxygen is needed for respiration to take place. 5 Exhaled air is warmer than inhaled air. 6 Limewater can be used to test for the presence of oxygen. © 2012 Alston Publishing House Pte Ltd Science SMART Teacher’s Guide Grade 6 75 Body Systems: Circulatory and Respiratory Name: Class: Consolidation Worksheet 2 Date: What Makes Up Our Respiratory System and What Is Its Function?
