3
Root System Two types: Fibrous root system Tap root system
5
Root System Regardless of which types, roots anchor the plant and take in water and nutrients
6
Stems The stem supports other plant parts such as the leaves, flowers, and fruit
7
Stems Two basic types of above ground stems are woody and herbaceous
8
Stems Carry water up to the leaves Sugars are transported down to the roots
9
Leaves The leaf manufactures food for the plant by using light energy
10
Photosynthesis Plants use carbon dioxide to manufacture food for the plant and release oxygen necessary for animal life at the same time
12
Temperature Affects the process of photosynthesis
14
Temperature The best rate of photosynthesis occurs between 65 – 85 degrees F
15
Leaves Leaves are useful for identification of the plant
17
Leaves The leaf edge (margin), shape, and arrangement are all important in plant identification
19
Flower Seed develop in the female part of the flower (pistil) The pistil then enlarges and becomes the fruit
20
Pistil (Female) Stigma- Style Ovary
21
Stamen (male) Anther Filament
22
Petals Attract Insect to aid in pollination
23
Fruit Ovary matures into a fruit that surrounds the seed
24
Seeds Develop in the pistil
25
Seeds Seed coat – protect Endosperm – food Embryo- Baby plant
