Function: The flower is the reproductive part of the plant. It produces seeds through pollination, which helps create new plants.
Key Features: Contains petals, stamens (male parts), and pistils (female parts). Attracts pollinators like bees and butterflies with its colors and scent.
Function: Leaves are the food factories of the plant. They perform photosynthesis, converting sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into food (glucose) and oxygen.
Key Features: Contains chlorophyll (makes them green), has tiny pores called stomata for gas exchange, and veins that transport water and nutrients.
Function: The fruit protects the seeds and helps in their dispersal. When animals eat the fruit, they spread the seeds to new locations where they can grow into new plants.
Key Features: Develops from the flower after pollination, contains seeds, often colorful and nutritious to attract animals for seed dispersal.
Function: The stem supports the plant and acts as a highway for water, nutrients, and food. It transports water from roots to leaves and food from leaves to other parts.
Key Features: Contains vascular bundles (xylem and phloem), provides structural support, and can store food in some plants.
Function: Roots anchor the plant in soil and absorb water and minerals from the ground. They also store food for the plant.
Key Features: Has tiny root hairs that increase surface area for absorption, grows downward (geotropism), and can be fibrous or tap root systems.
