The task is to arrange the stages of a plant's life cycle in the correct order. The diagram shows four stages, and we need to match them with the labels provided at the bottom:
seed,
sprout,
seedling, and
flower.
Step-by-Step Solution:
1.
Identify the Stages:
- The image at the bottom provides four stages:
-
Seed: A small, oval structure.
-
Sprout: A seed that has started to grow roots and a shoot.
-
Seedling: A young plant with developing leaves and roots.
-
Flower: A mature plant with blooming flowers.
2.
Understand the Life Cycle Order:
- The plant life cycle typically progresses as follows:
1.
Seed: The starting point where the plant begins its growth.
2.
Sprout: The seed germinates and develops into a sprout.
3.
Seedling: The sprout grows into a seedling with more developed leaves and roots.
4.
Flower: The mature plant produces flowers for reproduction.
3.
Match the Stages to the Diagram:
-
Stage 1 (Starting Point): This is the
seed because it is the initial stage of the life cycle.
-
Stage 2 (After Seed): This is the
sprout because it comes after the seed germinates.
-
Stage 3 (After Sprout): This is the
seedling because it is the next stage after the sprout develops further.
-
Stage 4 (Final Stage): This is the
flower because it represents the mature plant producing flowers.
4.
Fill in the Diagram:
- Place the stages in the boxes according to their order:
-
Box 1: Seed
-
Box 2: Sprout
-
Box 3: Seedling
-
Box 4: Flower
Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{
\begin{array}{ccc}
& \text{1 (Seed)} & \\
& \downarrow & \\
\text{4 (Flower)} & & \text{2 (Sprout)} \\
& \uparrow & \\
& \text{3 (Seedling)} &
\end{array}
}
\]
This completes the plant life cycle diagram in the correct sequence.
