All About Plants

All About Plants

• Plants are living organisms that come in many different shapes, sizes, and colors.
• They need air, water, nutrients, and sunlight to live and cover much of our planet.
• Plants create food from the sun's energy and produce the oxygen in the air we breathe.
• They also create important habitats where animals can live and provide humans with many natural resources.
• Plants are always made of more than one cell and their cells have special parts, such as the cell wall.
• Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, which is green and allows plants to carry out photosynthesis.
• During photosynthesis, plants use the sun's energy to change water and carbon dioxide into a kind of sugar.
• Some plants have adapted to their nutrient-poor soils by getting extra nutrition from insects, such as the sundew and pitcher plant.
• Most plants are prey for herbivores and have developed strategies to help protect them from being eaten, such as growing thorns, spines, or prickles.
• Some plants use chemicals to protect themselves and make their leaves bitter or poisonous.
• Plants have to solve the problem of how to get their seeds away from them and use various methods, including using the wind, water, or animals to spread their seeds.
• Plants play a critical role in the continuation of life on earth, making their own food from sunlight, producing oxygen, and providing habitats for animals to live in.
