Learning Objective
I can describe the basic parts of a plant and their functions.
- 1
Roots act like anchors to hold the plant in place and soak up water and nutrients from the soil.
- 2
The stem supports the plant, helping it stand tall, and carries water and nutrients to the leaves and flowers.
- 3
Leaves are like food factories that use sunlight, water, and air to make food for the plant through photosynthesis.
