  1. Plants

  2. Parts of Plant ROOTS – take in water and mineral salts from the soil. They anchor the plant into the ground. STEM – is like a straw. It moves water around the plant. It raises the leaves and flowers of the plant off the ground. LEAVES – make the food for the plant. They take the water and mineral salts and use them together with sunlight and carbon-dioxide to make food. FLOWERS – Produce seeds which the form new plants

  3. Can you remember the Seven Processes of Life? M R S N E R G

  4. Plants - Seven Processes of Life Movement Stems and leaves curve round to face the light. Light is needed by the leaves to make food.

  5. Plants - Seven Processes of Life Reproduction The flowers of a plant contain the reproductive organs. The male organs (stamen) produce pollen which is transferred to the female organs (stigma) – POLLINATION. This allows the plant to produce eggs - FERTILISATION. When the flower dies these seeds fall from the plant, landing in the earth below.

  6. Plants - Seven Processes of Life Sensitivity Stems curve to face the light. Roots grow towards water.

  7. Plants - Seven Processes of Life Nutrition Plants need food. The roots take in minerals from the soil. The leaves then turn these mineral salts and water into food using energy from the sun. This is called photosynthesis.

  8. Plants - Seven Processes of Life Excretion Plant release oxygen. This is a waste product of photosynthesis.

  9. Plants - Seven Processes of Life Respiration Plants take in Carbon dioxide (gas), They use this to make food.

  10. Plants - Seven Processes of Life Growth Plant use the food made during photosynthesis to grow.

  11. A Healthy Plant

  12. An Unhealthy Plant How could this plant have died?

  13. All diagrams must show roots – stem – leaves - flowers Plants Task • Draw a healthy plant. Label the plant and write a sentence to explain what each part of the plant does (relate to the seven processes of life) • Draw a diagram of a plant that has been kept in the dark for a few days. Label the plant and write a sentence to explain what has happened to each part of the plant and why. • Re-draw the plant showing what it will look like after it has had a few days on the windowsill. Label the plant and explain what has happened to it and why.
