To solve this worksheet, we need to identify the different parts of a plant based on where the arrows are pointing. Let's go through them step-by-step, starting from the top of the flower and working our way down to the roots.
Step 1: The Flower Parts (Top Section)
The top part of the diagram shows a flower. Flowers have specific reproductive parts.
*
Top Left Arrow: This points to the large, colorful flap. These attract bees and butterflies. This is a
Petal.
*
Top Right Arrow (Outer): This points to the small green leaf-like structure at the base of the petals. It protects the bud before it opens. This is a
Sepal.
*
Center Arrows (Male Part): There are two arrows pointing to the male parts in the center.
* One arrow points to the very top tip that holds the pollen. This is the
Anther.
* The other arrow points to the long thin stalk holding up the anther. This is the
Filament.
* *(Note: Together, the Anther and Filament make up the Stamen).*
*
Center Arrow (Female Part): This arrow points to the central vase-shaped structure. Specifically, it points to the swollen bottom part where seeds grow. This is the
Ovary. (Sometimes this whole central part is labeled as the Pistil or Carpel, but Ovary is the specific part shown).
Step 2: The Support and Food Making Parts (Middle Section)
Moving down from the flower, we see the stem and leaves.
*
Left Middle Arrow: This points to the main upright stick that holds the plant up and carries water. This is the
Stem.
*
Right Bottom-Middle Arrow: This points to the flat green part that catches sunlight to make food for the plant. This is a
Leaf.
Step 3: The Underground Parts (Bottom Section)
Finally, we look below the soil line.
*
Bottom Right Arrow: This points to the strings growing underground. They hold the plant in place and drink up water. These are the
Roots.
Summary of Labels:
1.
Petal (Colorful part)
2.
Sepal (Green base of flower)
3.
Anther (Top of male part)
4.
Filament (Stalk of male part)
5.
Ovary (Base of female part)
6.
Stem (Main stalk)
7.
Leaf (Green flat part)
8.
Roots (Underground part)
Final Answer:
Here are the correct labels for the parts of the plant, going generally from top to bottom:
*
Petal: The colorful part of the flower.
*
Sepal: The small green leaf at the base of the flower.
*
Anther: The tip of the stamen that holds pollen.
*
Filament: The thin stalk that holds up the anther.
*
Ovary: The bottom part of the pistil where seeds form.
*
Stem: The main support of the plant.
*
Leaf: The part that makes food using sunlight.
*
Roots: The part under the ground that absorbs water.
