Getting To Know Plants Worksheet 7

The document contains questions about plant parts and functions. For question 1, the answer lists the main plant parts as stem, roots, leaves, and flowers. It describes the main function of each part as transporting water/nutrients, absorbing water/nutrients from soil, producing food via photosynthesis and gas exchange, and reproduction via seeds. For question 2, the answer explains an activity where enclosing leafy branches but not bare branches in plastic bags shows that the leaves transpire and collect water droplets inside the bag.

Q1. Name the different parts of the plant. Mention main functions of
each part.

Ans. Parts of plants and their function

1. Stem – The main function of the stem is to support the shoot

of the plant. It conducts water and minerals to the leaves and

transport food prepared by the leaves to the other part of the

plant.

2. Roots – It provide support to the plant in the soil. It absorbs

water and other nutrients from the soil and transports these things

to the stem.

3. Leaves – It prepares food for plants by the process of

photosynthesis. It helps in inter-change of gases between the

atmosphere and the plant and evaporation of water.

4. Flowers – The primary purpose of a flower is reproduction. It

produces seed which produce new plants.

Q2. Explain an activity to show that plant transpires.

Ans. Take a healthy plant. Enclose a leafy branch of the plant in a

polythene bag and tie up its mouth. Tie up another branch without

leaf with a polythene bag. Keep the plant in the sun. After a few

hours, we observe tiny droplets of water on the inner surface of

polythene bag with leaves and no water in the polythene bag which

encloses the empty branch. This shows that plant transpire.
