The document discusses the main plant parts and their functions. It explains that plants are made up of leaves, stems, flowers, roots, and fruits. Each part plays an important role in helping the plant survive. For example, leaves absorb sunlight for photosynthesis and allow gas exchange, stems transport water and nutrients, flowers produce seeds, roots anchor the plant and absorb water and nutrients from the soil, and fruits contain seeds and provide food for humans and animals. The document also notes that plants can be identified by their leaves, flowers, and other distinguishing characteristics.

2. Plant parts
• Plants are made up of different parts
• Each plant part has a certain job to help the
plant stay alive and healthy
• These plant parts also help us identify the
plants

3. Plant parts
Main Plant Parts Are
Leaves
Stems
Flowers
Roots
Fruits

4. Leaves
• The Job for the leaves is to absorb sunlight
so photosynthesis can occur to make food
for the plant
• They also let water, carbon dioxide, and
oxygen in and out

5. Stems
• The stems help the plant by carrying water
and nutrients taken up by the roots to the
leaves

6. Flowers
• The flowers are important for making
seeds
• They also make new plants with
the process of fertilization

7. Roots
• The roots help by supporting the plant by
anchoring the plant and absorbing nutrients
and water needed for the the plant to
survive

8. Fruits
• The fruit is the ripened ovary of the plant,
containing the seeds
• The fruit also provides humans and animals
with food

9. Identifying Plants
plants can be identified in many ways!
Here are some ways
• They can be identified by there leaves,
some plants have leaves that are different
shapes and sizes
• Some can even be identified by there
flowers, the petals can be different colors
like red, blue and much more
