 PARTS OF A PLANT AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
Parts Function
Leaves Leaves (Produce food for the plant; Absorb
carbon dioxide to make food)
Stem Stem (Carries water and nutrients;
Provides support for the plant)
Flowers Flowers (Attract pollen – carrying insects)

Roots Roots (Absorb water and nutrients from

the soil; Keep the plant in position)
Seeds Seeds (Can grow into a new plant)

 PLANTS AND THEIR NEEDS
Plants need water because it helps the plant absorb nutrients
from the soil up through its stems and leaves. It also helps the
plant make its own food.
Plants need air to make their own food.
Plants need sunlight because it gives warmth and energy to
survive. Plants uses the sun’s energy to make their own food.
Plants need healthy soil because the roots absorb the nutrients
from it.
Plants also need proper care to make them grow healthy.
