What does the stem do?

Why do plants have leaves?
The leaf’s job:
• The leaf breathes in air called carbon dioxide and breathes out oxygen.
• The leaf takes in energy from the sun and turns it into energy for the plant.
This is called photosynthesis.

The Flower
• The flower attracts insects by its color and smell so insects can pollinate the flower.
• After being pollinated, the flower makes the seeds.
“Hey insects, come over here!”
What does the flower do?
