Learn it step by step
Parts of a Plant
A plant has different parts including roots, stems, leaves, flowers, and fruits. Each part has a special job to help the plant stay healthy.
Roots and Stems
Roots hold the plant firmly in the soil and take in water. Stems hold the plant upright and carry water from the roots to the other parts.
Leaves, Flowers, and Fruits
Leaves make food for the plant using sunlight. Flowers help the plant make new plants, and fruits often hold seeds inside them.
What Plants Need to Grow
Just like us, plants need things to live and grow. They need water, sunlight, and air to stay green and healthy.
Similarities and Differences
Plants are similar because they all need water and sunlight to grow. They are different because they come in different shapes, sizes, and colors.
| Plant Part | Main Job |
|---|---|
| Roots | Takes in water from soil |
| Leaves | Makes food using sunlight |
| Stem | Holds the plant upright |
