The image shows a worksheet for the
life cycle of a plant. The task is to label each stage of the plant's life cycle in the correct order. Below is the explanation and solution:
Life Cycle of a Plant
The life cycle of a plant typically includes the following stages:
1.
Seed: The starting point where the plant begins its growth.
2.
Germination: The process where the seed sprouts and begins to grow into a seedling.
3.
Sprout: The young plant that emerges from the seed during germination.
4.
Seedling: A young plant that has grown from the sprout and developed its first true leaves.
5.
Plant: The mature plant that grows further and develops more leaves and stems.
6.
Plant with Flowers: The mature plant that produces flowers, which can lead to the production of seeds.
Solution
Here’s how to fill in the blanks based on the provided labels:
1.
Top Left Blank: This represents the
Seed.
- Reason: It is the starting point of the life cycle.
2.
Top Middle Blank: This represents the
Germination.
- Reason: Germination is the process where the seed starts to sprout.
3.
Top Right Blank: This represents the
Sprout.
- Reason: After germination, the sprout emerges from the seed.
4.
Middle Right Blank: This represents the
Seedling.
- Reason: The sprout grows into a seedling, developing its first true leaves.
5.
Bottom Left Blank: This represents the
Plant.
- Reason: The seedling grows into a mature plant.
6.
Bottom Middle Blank: This represents the
Plant with Flowers.
- Reason: The mature plant produces flowers, completing the life cycle by producing seeds.
Final Answer
- Top Left:
Seed
- Top Middle:
Germination
- Top Right:
Sprout
- Middle Right:
Seedling
- Bottom Left:
Plant
- Bottom Middle:
Plant with Flowers
Explanation
Each stage builds upon the previous one, illustrating the natural progression of a plant's life cycle. By filling in the blanks correctly, you complete the diagram and understand how plants grow from seeds to mature flowering plants.
Final Answer Boxed:
\[
\boxed{\text{Seed, Germination, Sprout, Seedling, Plant, Plant with Flowers}}
\]
