Exploring the Stages of the Plant Life Cycle

Miss Tree takes us through the life cycle of a flowering plant, starting from a seed. She explains the germination process, highlighting the importance of water, oxygen, and warmth. As the plant grows, it undergoes photosynthesis to produce its own food. The plant eventually matures, flowers, and reproduces through pollination and fertilisation, leading to fruit and seed dispersal. The cycle then begins anew.

What are the three essential elements needed for a seed to germinate?

• Sunlight, Soil, and Water

• Water, Oxygen, and Warmth

• Water, Sunlight, and Nutrients

• Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, and Soil

What is the first part of the plant to emerge during germination?

• Roots

• Stem

• Flower

• Leaves

What process do plants use to make their own food?

• Photosynthesis

• Pollination

• Germination

• Respiration

What happens to the seeds inside the fruits?
