9. LEAVES Petiole: connects blade to stem Blade: contains chlorophyll necessary for making food Veins: Bring in water for photosynthesis Transport food to all plant parts
15. SEPTALS PETALS Leaf-like parts Located at the base of the flower Colorful parts of the flower Arranged within the sepals
16. STAMENS Male part of the flower Located within the petals CARPELS Female part of flower
17. 5 STEPS OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS Water is taken in through roots. Water is transported to leaves. Carbon dioxide goes into leaves. Carbon dioxide spreads to cells that contain chlorophyll. Sunlight turns water in plant into oxygen.
18. AFTER PHOTOSYNTHESIS Hydrogen and Carbon Dioxide make food for the plant Plant gives off oxygen Humans and animals use oxygen to breathe
