To solve this problem, we need to match each part of a plant with its correct function. Let's analyze each part and its corresponding function step by step:
1. Leaves
- Leaves are primarily responsible for photosynthesis, which is the process by which plants prepare food using sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide.
-
Correct Function: f. Prepare food for the plant
2. Fruits
- Fruits are the structures that develop from flowers after fertilization. They contain seeds and are often used for seed dispersal.
-
Correct Function: e. Contain seeds
3. Seeds
- Seeds are the embryonic form of a new plant. They are contained within fruits and can grow into a new plant under suitable conditions.
-
Correct Function: a. Part from which baby plant grows and is present in the fruit
4. Flowers
- Flowers are the reproductive structures of plants. They produce seeds or fruits after pollination and fertilization.
-
Correct Function: c. The part that produce seeds or fruits
5. Stems
- Stems support the plant and transport water, minerals, and nutrients (such as sugars produced during photosynthesis) between the roots and leaves.
-
Correct Function: b. Carry food and water to all other parts
6. Roots
- Roots anchor the plant in the soil and absorb water and minerals necessary for the plant's growth and survival.
-
Correct Function: d. It absorbs water and minerals from the soil
Final Matching:
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
Answer:
\[
\boxed{
\begin{array}{ll}
1. \text{Leaves} & \text{f. Prepare food for the plant} \\
2. \text{Fruits} & \text{e. Contain seeds} \\
3. \text{Seeds} & \text{a. Part from which baby plant grows and is present in the fruit} \\
4. \text{Flowers} & \text{c. The part that produce seeds or fruits} \\
5. \text{Stems} & \text{b. Carry food and water to all other parts} \\
6. \text{Roots} & \text{d. It absorbs water and minerals from the soil} \\
\end{array}
