Plants (I)

  • Plants are living things.
  • Plants have three life processes: nutrition, interaction and reproduction.
  • Plants give us the oxygen we need to live, food, medicine and clothes.
  • Plants need sunlight, air (oxygen), water, soil and warmth to grow.

Parts of a plant

ROOTS

  • They are underground.
  • They absorb water, nutrients and minerals from the soil.
  • They hold the plant in the soil.
STEM
  • It carries water, nutrients and minerals from the roots to the leaves.
LEAVES
  • They make the food for the plant using sunlight, air and water, nutrients and minerals from the soil.
FLOWERS
  • They are the reproductive part of the plant.
  • The seeds are formed inside the flower and the fruit is formed around the seed.

Types of plants

GRASSES

  • They have soft stem.
  • They are thin and flexible.
  • They are usually short.
  • Examples: lavender, rosemary.
BUSHES

  • They are taller than grasses and live longer.
  • Examples: corn, boxwood, oleander.
TREES
  • They have high branches and a thick, hard stem (trunk).
  • They are the tallest plants.
DECIDUOUS TREES
  • They lose their leaves in autumn.

Plants produce their own food using a process called PHOTOSYNTHESIS. During this process (photosynthesis) plants release oxygen into the air.

  1. The roots absorb water and minerals from the soil.
  2. The water and minerals travel up the stem to the leaves.
  3. The leaves absorb the carbon dioxide from the air. With the energy and light from the sun, and the water and minerals from the stem the plant makes its food.

Plants are living things and so they need to breathe, just like people and animals. During the day they can also use the Oxygen they produce during the photosynthesis process. At night, however, they must take in Oxygen from the air and release Carbon Dioxide.
