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.

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.

Bhakti Movement NCERT Class 12 History The Bhakti movement was an effort to achieve salvation and emancipation by devotion to God. In Hindi, the word bhakti refers to fervent devotion to God. This movement, which stressed a single-minded, ardent devotion to God, is seen as the most characteristic act of religious progress during the Middle Ages. In the 12th and 13th centuries, Kabir Das was a key figure in the Bhakti Movement. As a result of the movement, Kabir Das' poems and religious writings attained widespread fame. Kabir Das was raised up by a Muslim family. However, his religious beliefs were influenced by his Hindu teacher Ramananda, who regarded Rama as the highest God.
