PARTS OF A PLANT - B.YUVINYA - AGE 7
Our topic for today is Parts of a Plant.
A plant has many different parts that perform various functions.
The two main parts of the plant are the root and shoot.
Root usually grows under the ground while shoot usually grows above the ground.
The shoot has different parts called the stem, leaves, flowers and fruits.
The stem is the stalk of the plant.
It helps the plant to stand upright.
It carries water and minerals from the roots to the leaves and carries food prepared by the leaves to the different parts of the plant.
Branches are parts that grow from the stem.
Leaves grow on the stem and branches.
They are usually green due to the presence of chlorophyll, which helps them to prepare food.
Leaves have small openings called stomata, through which plants take in and give out air.
Flowers are the reproductive parts of the plant.
They come in different shapes, sizes and colours.
By the process of pollination, many flowers develop into delicious fruits, which are eaten by us.
Roots help to anchor the plant to the ground.
They absorb the water and minerals required for the growth of the plant.
Parts of Plants
A plant is made up of primarily four parts. They are –
Roots
Stem
Leaf
Flower
Fruit
Functions of Parts of Plants
Function of Roots
A plant has roots that grow in the ground. This underground part plays a very important role in pulling the water and minerals so they can reach the plant. Furthermore, it also expands within the ground so that for better water absorption the water increases.
Roots also play the role of anchors which helps in creating better stability. In addition, the roots also fuse the development of the plant and stock reserve food material. They also store food that binds the soil together.
Function of Stem
The stem is the part that stays above the ground. A stem usually bears leaves, fruits plus flowers. It distributes the nutrients and minerals all the way from the plant to the leaves. Furthermore, the stem is the support system of the plant
Function of Leaf
It is safe to say that a leaf is one of the most important parts of a plant. It contains chlorophyll which assists the plants in preparation for food. Moreover, the veins of a leaf allow the flowing of nutrients plus water.
A leaf has three basic parts which are petiole, leaf base and lamina. The leaves of the plant help in photosynthesis. Moreover, they help in removing any excess water via stomata. In short, it is for transpiration.
Moreover, some plants have leaves which also assist in the process of reproduction. Thus, leaves perform a number of functions, which helps the plant grow healthier.
Function of Flower
The bright and beautiful part of the plant which you see is the flower. They play a role in making food. A flower has female as well as male parts. Both of these work
collectively to fertilize the plant so it can produce seeds

PLANT CLASSIFICATION
As we said, there are many types of plants, and we can classify them in four large groups to get to know them better: algae, mosses, ferns and phanerogams.
Algae don’t have roots, stems or leaves. They live in water, both in rivers and seas, and they are the simplest plants.
Mosses are also simple plants. They live on solid ground but need a lot of humidity. They don’t have roots to absorb water in the ground because they live in very humid and bleak places.
Ferns are higher plants and their body is divided into roots, which is where they absorb water from the soil, stem, which is where the water circulates, and leaves, that grow upwards from the stem.
Phanerogams, despite their name, are the most common plants, because they reproduce through their flowers. They are higher plants and their bodies are divided into roots, stem and leaves. Trees are an example that belong to this group.
Well, now we know a bit more about plants and their importance towards all other living things. So you know that we need to take care of them, and respect them.
