Parts of a Plant
Plants have many parts. Each part of a plant has a special job. The roots, stem, and leaves help the plant grow and be healthy. The flower helps the plant make new plants.
• roots: suck up water and nutrients from the soil
• stem: moves the water and nutrients from the roots to the leaves, and the energy, or food, from the leaves to the root
• leaves: turn sunlight and water into plant food
• flower: makes new seeds
Trees
Did you know that trees are plants, too? They may be much bigger, but they have the same basic parts that a small plant has. The roots are bigger. The leaves may be big or small. The stem on a tree is its trunk and it has branches to hold the leaves. Trees may grow flowers or fruit that has new seeds for new trees.
