Study Notes
Plant Structure
- A flower has four parts: sepals, petals, stamens, and pistil
- Stamens consist of anthers and filaments
- Pistil consists of stigma, style, and ovary
- Ovary is the lowermost and swollen part of the pistil
- Ovary contains ovules, which are small bead-like structures
Leaf Structure
- Leaves have reticulate or parallel venation
- Leaves lose water through transpiration
- Transpiration is the process of water evaporation from leaves
- Leaves also make food by photosynthesis using carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight
Root Structure
- Roots absorb water and minerals from the soil
- Roots also anchor the plant firmly in the soil
- There are two types of roots: tap root and fibrous root
- Plants with reticulate venation have tap roots, while plants with parallel venation have fibrous roots
Stem Function
- Stem conducts water from roots to leaves and other parts of the plant
- Stem also conducts food from leaves to other parts of the plant
Flower Function
- Flowers have different parts, including sepals, petals, stamens, and pistil
- Sepals and petals can be separate or joined together
- Stamens consist of anthers and filaments, and pistil consists of stigma, style, and ovary
Watering Plants
- Plants need water to survive
- Roots absorb water from the soil
- Transpiration helps to release excess water from leaves
- Watering plants regularly is essential for their growth and survival
