The three main parts of a plant are the leaves, stem, and roots. The roots absorb water and minerals from the soil and fix the plant in place. The stem transports these nutrients from the roots to the leaves. In the leaves, photosynthesis takes place, mixing water, minerals, carbon dioxide, and sunlight to produce glucose and release oxygen.

- 3. There are three main parts in the plant: Leaves Stem Roots
- 4. 1. The roots They fix the plant to the ground.
- 5. They absorb water and minerals from the soil.
- 6. 2. The stem It supports the leaves.
- 7. It transports water and minerals from the roots to the leaves.
- 8. 3. The leaves In the leaves, PHOTOSYNTHESIS takes place.
- 9. The leaves mix: - Water and minerals from the soil. - Carbon dioxide (CO2). - Sunlight.
- 10. 4. What happens after photosynthesis? The plant produces SAP or GLUCOSE.
- 11. The leaves release oxygen to the atmosphere.
- 12. 5. Sap or glucose Sap circulates from the leaves to the rest of the plant.
- 13. 6. Respiration in plants During the day, plants release oxygen to the atmosphere.
- 14. During the night, plants release carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.
- 15. It colours the leaves green. It is essential for photosynthesis. 7. Chlorophyll
