3. Activity! Definition of a plant
(Circle the words you don’t know)
Any of various photosynthetic, eukaryotic, multi-cellular organisms of the Kingdom Plantae characteristically producing embryos, containing chloroplasts, having cell wall made of cellulose, and lacking the power of locomotion.
Photosynthetic – Makes sugar from light.
Eukaryotic – Cells with a nucleus.
Multi-cellular – Made of many cells.
Embryo – Young organism that grows inside.
Chloroplast – An organelle that does photosynthesis.
Cellulose – A complicated and strong sugar.
Locomotion – To move.

9. The energy flow of life occurs because of plants
The energy flow of life occurs because of plants. Plants harness the energy from the sun, and pass it on to all other life forms.
Except for extreme bacteria on the ocean floor and their predators that use chemosynthesis.
