3. Plants are living organisms
that are able to produce
their own food through
photosynthesis. They come in
a wide variety of shapes,
sizes, and colors. They
provide food and oxygen for
many other living things.
6. Roots are often found
below the surface of the
soil. They absorb water
and nutrients from the
ground. They also anchor
the plant in place. Some
roots store food and
nutrients for the plant's
growth.
7. There are two main types of roots:
taproots and fibrous roots.
A taproot has one main
root that grows straight
down.
A fibrous root is shallow
and spreads out in many
directions.
8. Stems are found above
the ground. They provide
support to the plant by
holding up leaves, flowers,
buds, and fruits. They
also transport water,
nutrients, and minerals to
different parts of the
plant.
9. Leaves are flat and thin
structures attached to
the stem of a plant.
They produce food for
the plant through the
process of photosynthesis.
They also help regulate
the exchange of gases
with the surroundings.
10. Leaves may be simple or compound.
A simple leaf is a leaf
that has a single blade.
A compound leaf has two
or more distinct leaflets.
11. Flowers are characterized
by their colorful petals
and sweet fragrance. They
attract pollinators like
insects and birds that
help in the transfer of
pollen from one flower to
another. This transfer of
pollen leads to seed
12. Fruits are the parts of
the plant that contain
seeds. They protect and
dispense seeds. They also
provide food for animals.
They are typically sweet
or tart in taste and
can be eaten raw or
cooked.
13. Some common examples of fruits include
bananas, oranges, and strawberries.
