  1. Plants

  2. Roots • Anchor the plant in the soil • Suck up water and nutrients from the soil seed roots

  3. Leaves • They absorb light • They make food for the plant

  4. Stem veins • Hold up or support the plant • Transport water and nutrients around the plant leaf stem

  5. Flower • Attracts bees and insects • Contains the pollen

  6. Can you label this?

  7. The inside of a flower

  8. Answer these questions • The roots have two functions. What are they? • The stem has two jobs, name them. • What do the leaves do? • Why is the flower brightly coloured? • What does the flower contain? Why is it important? • What 3 things does a plant need to grow?

  9. The inside of a flower Can you remember the name of each part?

  10. Inside of a flower • Flowers have both female and male parts • Male pollen is produced on the anthers at the end of long, thin stamens

  11. Inside of a flower • The female ovules (tiny eggs) are at the bottom of the carpel in the middle of the flower.

  12. Pollination • The bee is attracted to the flower • Pollen from the anther sticks to the bee • The bee visits a different plant

  13. Pollination • The bee is attracted to the flower • Pollen sticks to the bee • The bee visits a different plant

  14. Pollination • The pollen sticks to the bee and is transported to another plant • The pollen sticks to the sticky stigma

  15. Pollination • The pollen travels down the style • It fertilises and ovule (egg) in the ovary • This then grows into a seed for a new plant

  16. Pollination

  17. Pollination

  18. Pollination

  19. Pollination • Bee is attracted to the flower • The bee collects nectar and the pollen sticks to it. • The bee visits another flower. • The pollen sticks to the sticky stigma. • The pollen travels down the style. • It reaches the ovary and it fertilises an ovule which grows into a new seed.
