The earliest green plants lived in water. Since the conditions on land was very different from life in water, the earliest plants would have simply dried out and would have been unable to stay upright without support of water. Facto learns how plants developed to be able to live on land and which plants were the most successful in propagating on land…

The Earth is like a spaceship orbiting with other planets through space. The big difference between our planet earth and all the other planets, is that earth carries thousands of various forms of life. Flex explains to the Flixies how all the planets travel in their orbits around the sun and how the shapes of these orbits influence the seasons, allowing plants to grow and to rest.

Facto listens to what the Flixies have to say about water and learns that it is magical material!

No form of life, as we know it, can exist without water. It is an amazing solvent as all food for animals and plants must first be dissolved in water before it can be absorbed. It also used for washing and cleansing and even to cool off. But our supply of usable water is actually extremely limited…

We call living things on Earth, crew members and not passengers…

Flex and Dux tells us about the earth that is covered by a thin layer of atmosphere and stays in space exactly the right distance from the sun, in order to carry all living things and to keep them alive.

We learn that plants, animals and humans, each one of them – no matter how big or small – has a niche (a place and task) to make life possible for all on Earth. The Flixies also learn about the cycle of meat eaters, plant eaters and decomposers!

Die aarde is soos 'n ruimteskip saam met al die ander planete in die ruimte op reis. Die groot verskil tussen planeet Aarde en die ander planete is dat ons planeet in die ruimte duisende vorme van lewe saamdra. Flex verduidelik vir die Flixies van die bane waarin die planete om die son wentel en hoe die vorm van hierdie bane sorg dat ons verskillende seisoene het waarin die plante kan rus en kan groei.

Facto luister wat die Flixies te sê het oor water en hy hoor dat dit 'n wonderstof is! Geen lewe soos ons dit ken is moontlik sonder water nie. Dit is 'n wonderlike oplosmiddel, wat beteken dat die plante en diere se kos eers daarin moet oplos voordat dit deel van die plant of dier se liggaam kan word. Dit is ook 'n was- en spoelmiddel en dit koel af. Ons voorraad vars water wat bruikbaar is, is baie beperk en die Flixies verduidelik hoekom.

Alles wat op Aarde lewe, is ‘ruimteskip’ Aarde se bemanning en nie passasiers wat net kan saamry nie...

Ons leer dat plante en diere en mense elkeen, hoe klein of hoe groot ookal, 'n spesifieke nis ('n plek en 'n werkie) het om die aarde meer leefbaar te maak vir alles wat moet lewe. Die Flixies leer ook die lewensiklus van vleiseters, planteters en ontbinders!
