Lets start from the beginning.
• A cell is the building block of every living thing.
Example: muscle cell.
• A group of similar cells working together makes a
tissue, example: muscle tissue.
• A group of different tissues working together makes
an organ, example: heart.
• A group of different organs working together makes
an organ system, example: circulatory system.
• Many different organ system make up an organism!!

Each Tooth has a special

and bite food.
2. Canines: Sharp and
pointed to cut and
tear.
3. Premolars: have
cusps and grooves to

the food.
4. Molars: same as
premolars but larger in
size

Food groups
Carbohydrates:
are used as a
fuel for the
body, provides
body with
energy for
respiration and
growth.
Proteins
Provide the
body with
molecules
needed to
make new cells.
Useful for
growth and
repair.
Fats
Stored under
the skin, acts
as a heat
insulator to
keep body
warm. It is a
good store of
energy.
butter cheese
milk
cream
Ghee/
margarine
oil
Vitamins
Provide the body
with molecules
needed for a
strong immune
system, nerves,
bones, skin and
blood vessels.
For general
body health.
Micro-organisms
in food production
Yeast is a fungus
used in bread
making.
Yoghurt
making
A bacterium is used
to make yoghurt
from milk.
First milk is boiled to
kill any
microorganisms,
then cooled to 40⁰C,
then yoghurt is
mixed with milk and
