Choose the subject you want to learn about first: Parts of a plant Parts of a seed Parts of a flower Click on the one you want to learn about. When you have gone through both, come back and take the quiz. Quiz

Parts of a Plant Leaves- the parts of the plant where food is made by photosynthesis. Flowers- the reproductive parts of the plant. Stems- supports the upper parts of the plants. Roots- anchors the plant in the soil. Water and minerals are taken from the soils through the roots. Seeds- contains tiny embryo of a plant inside. Back

Way to go! You finished the quiz. I’m proud of you!

Seeds A seed is a tiny plant and nutrition, closed in a protective coat, that will grow into a new plant when given correct temperature and water. Seed Coat Embryo/ baby plant Label me! Food Storage BACK Click on a part of the seed you want to learn about.

Embryo/ Baby Plant • The baby plant is the part of the seed that will grow into a mature plant when the proper growing conditions are present. Return to seeds

Seed Coat • The seed coat is the protective outer shell that surrounds the seed parts. Return to seeds

Food Storage • The food storage is the part of the seed that holds the food necessary for the baby plant to grow. The food storage area provides the food for the plant until the roots are developed enough to absorb minerals from the soil. Return to seeds

Label a Seed • Click on the box. This will take you to a drawing program. In this program I need you to draw and label a seed that has all three parts. • 1. baby plant • 2. food storage • 3. seed coat Draw and label seed

YES! Correct Answer! YOU ROCK! Back To Quiz!
