Okay, now I see the rightmost label. The arrow is pointing to the outer brown layer of the seed. This is clearly the protective covering of the seed, which in biological terms is called the "seed coat". This matches perfectly with the word "seed coat" from the provided word bank. Now that I've identified all five parts, I'll fill in the blanks in the sentences below the diagram.
Based on my analysis of the seed diagram and the provided word bank, here are the correct labels for each part:
- Top label (pointing to the tip of the embryo):
root
- Right label (pointing to the middle of the embryo):
embryo
- Left label (pointing to the leaf-like structures):
leaves
- Bottom label (pointing to the large inner part):
food
- Rightmost label (pointing to the outer layer):
seed coat
Now I'll fill in the blanks in the sentences below the diagram:
1. A
seed coat protects the seed.
2. The
embryo is the baby plant. It has a
root which will grow down. The
leaves will grow up.
3. The seed has stored
food that the baby plant will use to grow.
This completes the worksheet by correctly identifying all parts of the seed and filling in the blanks with the appropriate terms from the word bank.
