How Plants Grow

What is the function of the plants leaves?

• Supports the plant and carries water, nutrients, and plant chemicals up and down to all parts of the plant.

• Food factories, that have little openings that let air and water come and go.

• Hidden underground but is very important to the plant.

• Attract pollinators and make seeds that will someday form into new plants.

What is the function of the stem?

• Food factories, that have little openings that let air and water come and go.

• Hidden underground but is very important to the plant.

• Little cases with a baby plant inside.

• Supports the plant and carries water, nutrients, and plant chemicals up and down to all parts of the plant.

What is the function of the root?
