Plants have different parts and each part has an important job:

Roots grow underground. They take in water and nutrients from the soil and hold the plant in place.
Examples of roots we eat: carrots, beetroots, sweet potatoes

Stem holds the plant upright and carries water from the roots to the leaves and flowers. In a tree, the stem is called a trunk.
Examples of stems we eat: celery, asparagus

Leaves are usually green and flat. They use sunlight, water, and air to make food for the plant. This is called photosynthesis.
Examples of leaves we eat: lettuce, spinach

Flower is the colourful part of the plant. It attracts bees and butterflies to spread pollen and helps the plant make seeds.
Examples of flowers we eat: broccoli, cauliflower

Seeds are tiny parts that can grow into new plants. They are found inside fruits.
Examples: sunflower seeds, corn kernels, apple pips

Fruit grows from the flower and protects the seeds inside.
Examples: apples, oranges, tomatoes
