Plant Parts

Flowers are the reproductive organs of flowering plants. Pollination transfers pollen from one flower to another, leading to fertilisation and seed production.

Leaves are the main organs of photosynthesis, with a flat blade, network of veins, and thousands of stomata for gas exchange.

Roots anchor plants in the soil and absorb water and dissolved minerals that the plant needs to survive and grow.

A seed is a fertilised plant embryo enclosed in a protective coat. Germination is the process by which a seed sprouts and begins to grow into a new plant. It requires water, warmth, and oxygen — but not light at first.

Stems support the plant and contain xylem and phloem vessels that transport water, minerals, and sugars throughout the plant.
