Here’s what you need to know…..
 Plants are “producers”. This means they have the ability to make their
own food. The process is called PHOTOSYNTHESIS.
Photosynthesis takes place in the plant’s leaves. The plant uses
chlorophyll (found in chloroplast) along with water, carbon dioxide, and
energy from the sun to produce food. During photosynthesis, the plant
gives off oxygen.
 Pollination is the way plants make new seeds. This happens when
pollen from the stamen lands on the stigma. Pollen travels by wind,
water, or animals such as insects.
 Sepals are the small leaves at the base of the flower that protects the
bud.

Most plants reproduce by seeds. There are some plants that
reproduce by spores. Those plants are ferns and mosses.
