Parts of a plant Chapter 7 Class 6

 Components of a plant

Roots, stem, leaves, flowers, and fruits are all elements of a typical plant's body. Roots are the parts of the plant that are found below ground. The stem, leaves, buds, flowers, fruits, and seeds are all present above ground.

Root

The roots are brown in colour and usually found underground. The root hairs are the thin threadlike structures that cover the roots. A root cap protects the tip of the root and serves as a preventative measure. The root system is made up of the root and the root hairs.


Root characteristics


  1. The roots develop away from the light and towards the dirt. As a result, it's called a geotropic structure.
  2. The chlorophyll pigment, which gives the root its green colour, is absent. It is unable to create food.
  3. Leaves, buds, and flowers are not produced by roots.
  4. Roots absorb water and minerals from the soil through their root hairs.

Stem
The plant's stem is the component that rises above the ground. A plant's leaves, flowers, and fruits are carried on the stem. It has a mild, green, or woody scent. It grows towards the direction of the sun. It climbs up from the earth.
Stem Characteristics

  1. The stem is what allows the plant to remain upright as a whole.
  2. They are phototrophic at all times. i.e. they grow in the direction of the sun.
  3. Internodes separate nodes (the point at which a leaf or branch emerges) on the stem (gap between two nodes). Branches, leaves, flowers, and fruits are all supported by the stem.

When there is only one of a naming word (noun), it is said to be a  singular noun . When a noun shows more than one, it is said to be in the  plural . We can add  –S, -es, -ves or ies  to show that there is more than one noun.  For example,  we say many birds, four biscuits, six brushes. But for the students of  Class 2 , it’s very difficult and confusing to understand where to use  s , es, ves or ies  in the form of many. Don’t worry, it looks difficult, but it is very easy as in grammar each concept has a set of rules that need to practice. Noun ending with  –s, -x, -o, -sh, -ch, and –ss  form plurals by taking  –es.
