Let's solve this matching problem by connecting each
part of a plant with its correct
function.
We are given:
Parts of a Plant:
1. Leaves
2. Fruits
3. Seeds
4. Flowers
5. Stems
6. Roots
Functions:
a. Part from which baby plant grows and is present in the fruit
b. Carry food and water to all other parts
c. The part that produce seeds or fruits
d. It absorbs water and minerals from the soil
e. Contain seeds
f. Prepare food for the plant
---
Now, let’s match each part with its correct function:
---
1. Leaves →
f. Prepare food for the plant
✔ Leaves perform
photosynthesis, where they make food (glucose) using sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water.
---
2. Fruits →
e. Contain seeds
✔ Fruits develop from flowers and
protect and disperse seeds. They usually contain seeds inside.
---
3. Seeds →
a. Part from which baby plant grows and is present in the fruit
✔ A seed contains an embryo (baby plant) and can grow into a new plant when conditions are right. Seeds are found in fruits.
---
4. Flowers →
c. The part that produce seeds or fruits
✔ Flowers are reproductive organs. After pollination and fertilization, they develop into
fruits and seeds.
---
5. Stems →
b. Carry food and water to all other parts
✔ Stems have vascular tissues (xylem and phloem) that transport water, minerals, and food throughout the plant.
---
6. Roots →
d. It absorbs water and minerals from the soil
✔ Roots anchor the plant and absorb water and nutrients from the soil through root hairs.

Final Answer (Matching):
| Parts of a plant | Functions |
|------------------|----------|
| 1. Leaves | f. Prepare food for the plant |
| 2. Fruits | e. Contain seeds |
| 3. Seeds | a. Part from which baby plant grows and is present in the fruit |
| 4. Flowers | c. The part that produce seeds or fruits |
| 5. Stems | b. Carry food and water to all other parts |
| 6. Roots | d. It absorbs water and minerals from the soil |
✔ This completes the correct matching!
