Multiple Choice

Analyze the diagram, which is the role of roots for a plant?

• To perform photosynthesis

• To attract pollinators and help with reproduction

• To absorb water and nutrients into the plant

• To protect the seeds

• To support the plant

1. Fibrous Roots

2. Taproots 

Why do plants have roots?

• Strong root systems help plants stay upright, even in strong winds.

• Healthy roots help plants get the water and nutrients they need to grow.

• Different plants have the right kind of root system for their environment.

​Think of the names of each of the roots. Build on that concept.

Labeling

Identify the type of root system in the pictures below.

Tap root

Fibrous root

Fill in the Blanks

What type of roots are MOST beneficial for plants in dry environments and the water is below the surface?

roots would be better because taproots are like long straws that help plants reach deep underground for water.

Multiple Choice

A mesquite tree lives in the desert where it may not rain for many months. The mesquite tree has a long taproot that grows deep into the ground.

How does this root structure help the mesquite tree survive?

• It helps the tree make more leaves to collect sunlight.

• It allows the tree to reach water deep underground when the surface soil is dry.

• It helps the tree spread seeds farther away from the parent plant.

• It keeps insects from eating the tree's leaves.

StaMEN

The stamen is the male part of the flower where pollen is created. The anther is at the top and covered in pollen. The filament holds the anther up, making it easier for pollinators to access.

Imagine you're a bee looking for pollen. Which part of the flower helps you find and collect the pollen more easily?

Pistol-made up of 3 parts

The pistol is the female part of the flower. The stigma is at the top; it is very sticky to catch pollen. The style is the tube that brings pollen to the ovary. The ovary contains embryos (“baby seeds”), and is where the new seeds will grow and develop fully.

Explain how pollen is transferred from one flower to another. Include the role of pollinators in this process.

Match

Match the following. Read each carefully. You can use the annotations in your guided reading to help.

• The female structure of the flower

• The male structure of the flower

• The sticky part of the female portion of the flower where the pollen germinates.

• The part of the male portion of the flower that produces and contains the pollen.

Multiple Choice

A cactus produces bright flowers with stamens and pistils.

How do these flower structures help the cactus survive in the desert?

• They help the cactus absorb more water through its flowers.

• They help the cactus reproduce by making seeds that can grow into new plants.
