Let's solve the "Parts of a Seed" labeling task step by step.
Step 1: Understand the Diagram
The image shows a diagram of a seed, with four labeled parts using arrows pointing to different regions. The goal is to label each part correctly using the
Word Bank provided:
Word Bank:
- seed coat
- root
- leaves
- food
Step 2: Identify Each Part
1.
Top left arrow – Points to the
embryo, specifically the
leaves (also called the plumule). This is the part that will grow into the plant’s leaves and stem.
2.
Top right arrow – Points to the
root (also called the radicle). This is the part that will grow downward into the soil.
3.
Bottom left arrow – Points to the
seed coat, which is the outer protective layer of the seed.
4.
Bottom right arrow – Points to the
food storage area (usually the cotyledons or endosperm), which provides nutrients for the growing embryo.
Step 3: Match Labels Correctly
Now, assign the correct terms from the word bank to each box:
-
Top left box:
leaves
-
Top right box:
root
-
Bottom left box:
seed coat
-
Bottom right box:
food
Final Answer:
Label the boxes as follows:
- Top left:
leaves
- Top right:
root
- Bottom left:
seed coat
- Bottom right:
food
✔ This completes the labeling of the parts of a seed.
