This document summarizes the main parts of a plant including roots, stems, leaves, buds, flowers, and fruits. Roots absorb water and nutrients and support the stem. Stems provide structure and can store food. Leaves use sunlight to produce food, release water and gases, and prevent diseases. Buds become shoots, flowers, or stems. Flowers produce seeds or pollen. Fruits develop from pistils or clusters of flowers to contain seeds.
