PLANTS

Plants are living things that can be found in our environment. Plants can manufacture their food by themselves making use of water and energy from sunlight through a process called photo they thesis. Plants take in carbon dioxide produced by animal and give off oxygen that is needed by man for survival 

Parts of a plant 

The main parts of a plant include the following:- 

  1. Leaves 
  2. Stem
  3. Root and
  4. Flower

Functions of the main part of a plant

  1. Leaves: This is the part of the plant that traps energy from sunlight through which the plant produces its food.
  2. Stem: This is the part of the plant holds the branches, flowers, fruits and leaves in place  
  3. Root: This is the underground part of a plant, that holds the plant upright. The root draws nutrient and water from the soil to nourish the plant .
  4. Flowers: This is the part that is involved in pollination which leads to the production of seed and fruit 

Examples of common plant in our environment includes cåssåvå plånt, green gråss, hibiscus plånt, måize plånt, palm tree and  påwpåw plånt.
