The life cycle of a tree begins with germination, where a seed sprouts and the beginning of growth occurs. The seedling develops into a sapling, which is a young tree. As the sapling matures it undergoes photosynthesis, using sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to produce its own food. A tree goes through different growth stages at different times of the year, with flowers and fruits growing in spring, the trunk developing in summer, and roots growing in autumn and winter.
9. photosynthesis
Photosynthesis is the process in which green plants use sunlight to
make their own food. Photosynthesis is necessary for life on Earth.
Without it there would be no green plants, and without green plants
there would be no animals. Photosynthesis requires sunlight,water,
and carbon dioxide gas.
