about ROOTS!

anchor the plant
in the ground.

water and
nutrients from
the soil.

•The stem helps to
support the plant.
•It’s like a straw—
it “sucks” the
water and
nutrients from the
roots to the rest
of the plant
•Let’s find out
about LEAVES!
•The leaves
use sunlight
and air to
make food for
the plant.
•The flower
produces
seeds so the
plant can
reproduce.
