PLANTS

Plants are living things, so they carry out the three life processes:

• nutrition
• interaction
• reproduction

We can classify plants intro three groups:

• grasses
• bushes
• trees

We can see three different parts on a plant:

Flowers are the reproductive organs of a plant. They contain:

• stamens: they produce pollen.
• carpel: the seeds develope into the carpel. The carpel grows into a fruit.
• petals: they protect the stamens and carpel. They are coloured.
• sepals: they protect the petals.

Fruits are the part of the plant that develope from the flower. The fruit contains the seeds of the plant.

It covers and protects the seeds. A fruit can have fleshy or dry tissue.

Seeds are inside the fruit. Fruits can have:

• only one seed called stone.
• several seeds that can be soft or hard.

 

Plants life cycle. Plants need water, sunligh, air and minerals from the soil to grow.
