How can seeds absorb water?Flowers absorb water through the xylem, a tissue of thin tubes on the outside stem of plants. Its job is to take water and nutrients from the roots. The water molecules are attracted to the molecules in the xylem, helping to pull the water up. Solar energy also pulls the water up through the plant. The sun evaporates the water from the surface.

Where do plants come from?Plants come from seeds. Each
seed contains a tiny plant waiting for the right weather to germinate, or start to grow.

What do plants need to make food?• Chlorophyll• Light• Carbon Dioxide• Water• Nutrients and Minerals

Could we live without plants?
We cannot live without plants .
Plants give us food, oxygen, shade, shelter, water and medicine. We need all these things to keep us alive

What are plant adaptions? Plants have adaptations to help them
survive in different areas. These adaptations might make it very difficult for the plant to survive in a different place. This explains why certain plants are found in one area, but not in another. For example, you wouldn't see a cactus living in the Arctic.

What does the word Pollination mean? Pollination is the transfer of pollen from
a stamen to a pistil. Pollination starts the production of seeds.

What’s the difference between a fruit and a vegetable?
A fruit is a sweet and fleshy product. The fruit holds seeds inside them, and those seeds then develop into new plants.
A vegetable is edible anywhere on the plant and does not have any seeds.

PhotosynthesisPhotosynthesis is a process in
plants to make their food. In this process six water molecules
mix with six carbon molecules to form, oxygen and glucose (food for plants)
