This document contains review questions and answers about various science topics like the circulatory system, respiration, photosynthesis, plant and animal cells, and the digestive system. It discusses how blood carries oxygen from the lungs to the body and carbon dioxide from the body to the lungs. Photosynthesis is described as plants using carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight to produce sugar and oxygen. The digestive system breakdown is also reviewed.
