Roots
  • What is a root?
  • How is it an organ?

Slide 8 - Tekstslide

Stems
Function of stems: 
- Support the flowers, leaves & fruit. 
- Keep the plant upright. 
- Store extra food. 
- Transport water, minerals & food through the plant. 

2 types of stems: 
- WOODY STEMS (trees & bushes) 
- HERBACEOUS STEMS (little herby plants)

Slide 9 - Tekstslide

Leaves
  • Make food = photosynthesis
  • Photosynthesis > in all green parts of a plant
  • Photo = Light
  • Synthesis = to make

Slide 10 - Tekstslide

Organ system of a plant

1. Root system - wortelstelsel

2. Vascular system - transportstelsel 

Slide 11 - Tekstslide

A root system
Function
1. Taking up water and minerals from the soil.
2. Keeping the plant in the ground.
3. Storing food reserves.

Slide 12 - Tekstslide

Vascular system
All the vessels of a plant taken together
Function:  transport
  1. water and minerals from the roots
    to other parts of the plant
  2. glucose from the leaves
    to the other parts of the plant
