Background Angiosperms (flowering plants) are the largest Phylum in the plant kingdom
Plantae, (Note that the Phylum A may also called Anthophyta or Magnoliophyta in different
classification systems.) These plants have true roots, stems, leaves, and flowers. The roots grow
into the soil to anchor the plant in place and take up water and nutrients. The leaves are above
ground and act as the main organs for photosynthesis. Stems provide above ground support for
the plant and operate as conduits to move nutrients and water throughout the plant. Flowers
contain the male and female reproductive organs of the plant. Assignment Details Part 1 Plants
develop specialized roots, stems, leaves, and flowers to make them better adapted to their
environment. People exploit many modifications as vegetables. An example of this is the taproot
of carrots. The carrot plant stores sugars in the taproot to supply energy for the formation of
flowers in later development. People dig up and eat the taproots while the sugar content is still
high. Complete the following: Describe the anatomy (structure) and physiology (function) of a
plant. Is the structure of your plant a modification from the standard root, stem, leaf, or flower?
Explain how this structure differs from the standard root, stem, leaf, or flower. Compare the
plant that you have chosen, its structure, and its function with 1 or more of your classmates\'
choices. Part 2 Animals are important for humans in ways other than providing food.
Medicines, clothing, beauty, fuel, air quality, building materials, and industrial products are a
few of the ways in which humans exploit animals. Complete the following: Choose l product or
benefit that people get from animals (besides food), describe it, and explain how people benefit.
Which do you think is the most important benefit of animals? Select 1 benefit and explain. List
3 adaptations that animals have that plants do not have. Provide references in APA format. This
includes a reference list and in-text citations for references used throughout the assignment
Solution
1. the normal function of roots is fixation of the plant in the soil absorption of water and
Minerals from the soil and conduction of the materials to the stem but in some plants roots
perform special functions like storage of food materials(carrot,raddish) respiration(rhizopora)
vegetative reproduction (sweet potato)support(betel vine) photosynthesis(orchids).
Betel vine:
Weak Climbing Plants produce some advantitious roots which cling to the supports and help the
plants in climbing they sometimes they secrete sticky substance or a disc like structures for this
purpose.
Betel Vine is a plant having climbing roots these adventitious roots are produced from their
nodes which help them to climb over a support another example is money plant.
These roots are aerial roots which twist and clasp the support to help plant to vlimb.
Normal rootsd show positive geotropism but these climbing roots show negativ.

2. Normal rootsd show positive geotropism but these climbing roots show negative geotropism as
they grow away from the ground.
My classmate choses stilt roots which are modifications of adventitious roots but there are some
differences:
The stilt roots normally arise from lower nodes of a weaks stem. they grow obliquely downwards
and penetrate into the soil to provide mechanical support to the plant after penetrating they
provide support.
Part2:
We get manure from animals which is a mixture of animal faces and straw. Animal manure such
as cow dung has been used as fertilizer informing animal manure encourages soil microbial
activity improving plant nutrition as it contains some nitrogen and other nutrients. Animal
manure also improve the soil structure and it helps to hold more nutrients and water thus makes
the soil more fertile.
All animals contribute to the ecosystem and help our earth keep alive.
I think V honey bees are very important for human survival these insects are our greatest
pollinators carrying Pollen from one flower to another. Their numbers have fallen down to 80%
in some parts due to diseases ,climatic changes and the usage of pesticides. it was found that
most of the plants depend on honey bees for their pollination. they help many plants to breed.
Along with this honey bees collect nectar from the flowers from which we get honey.
Animals have adaptations like behaviour and migration they can respond with the help of learnt
behaviour. Example Birds can build their nest as welln attract their mates Where are plants
cannot do.
Animals can move from one place to another in search of food due to changes in climate, for
giving birth but plants cannot move from one place to another example most birds and some
insects migrate to warmer climates.
Sometimes animals use colour and shape as adaptation to meet their needs they blend with the
environment to look like the surrounding environment.
They also show extended period of sleep like hibernation during which their metabolic rate is
very low animals often do this during winter months example ground squirrels.
