How do plants make food? - Free Printable

Let's solve the worksheet step by step and explain each answer.

---

A. Choose the correct option.

1. Which of the following fruit do we get from plants?
a. Spinach
b. Fruits
c. Banana
d. All of these

✔ Correct Answer: d. All of these
Explanation:
- Spinach is a leafy vegetable (from plant leaves).
- Fruits are parts of plants that develop from flowers and contain seeds.
- Banana is a fruit that grows on banana plants.
So, all of them come from plants — even though "fruits" is a category, it's still a correct choice as a general term. But since the question says "which of the following *fruit* do we get", it might be slightly confusing. However, given the options, "All of these" is the best choice because all items listed are derived from plants.

> Note: This question has a slight grammatical issue ("fruit" vs. "fruits"), but the intent is clear: which of these things come from plants?

2. Which of these is not a cereal?
a. Rice
b. Wheat
c. Maize
d. Gram

✔ Correct Answer: d. Gram
Explanation:
- Cereals are grains like rice, wheat, maize (corn), barley, etc.
- Gram (also known as chickpeas) is a pulse (a type of legume), not a cereal.
So, Gram is the odd one out here.

3. The following plant is a root vegetable
a. Beetroot
b. Cauliflower
c. Ginger
d. Apple

✔ Correct Answer: a. Beetroot
Explanation:
- Beetroot grows underground and is a root vegetable.
- Cauliflower is a flower head (part of the plant's reproductive structure).
- Ginger is a stem (specifically, a rhizome).
- Apple is a fruit.
So, only beetroot is a true root vegetable.

B. Fill in the blanks.

a. Rice is an example of _____ (cereals/pulses)
✔ Answer: cereals
Explanation: Rice is a grain and belongs to the cereal group.

---

b. We get _____ from plants (fruits/milk)
✔ Answer: fruits
Explanation: Plants produce fruits; milk comes from animals (like cows). So, we get fruits from plants.

---

c. Seeds of _____ are pulses. (wheat/peas)
✔ Answer: peas
Explanation: Pulses are dried seeds of legumes. Peas are legumes, so their seeds are pulses. Wheat is a cereal.

---

d. _____ is an example of stem (potato/broccoli)
✔ Answer: potato
Explanation: Potato is a tuber, which is an underground stem. Broccoli is a flower head (not a stem).

C. Circle the odd one out.

(Note: The image shows three pictures at the bottom, but they are not clearly visible in your description. Based on typical such questions, let’s assume the images are:)

- 🍎 Apple (fruit)
- 🍌 Banana (fruit)
- 🥦 Broccoli (vegetable – flower part)

✔ Odd one out: Broccoli
Explanation: Apple and banana are both fruits, while broccoli is a vegetable (specifically, a flower bud). So, broccoli is the odd one out.

Alternatively, if the images were:
- Carrot (root)
- Potato (stem)
- Tomato (fruit)

Then tomato would be the odd one out (because it's a fruit, others are vegetables).

But based on common design, likely:
👉 Apple, Banana, Broccoli → Broccoli is the odd one.
