This power point is about plants the different parts of a plant and how they work and more facts

intro

Where do seeds come from? Seeds come from adult plants to make new plants. They are made

inside the flowers of plants that have flowers. Other plants, like pine trees, make cones instead. Inside each seed is a tiny plant. Around the tiny plant is a lot of nutrients, which will feed the tiny plant and help it grow until it busts out of the seed, which usually has a hard protective shell. The shell keeps the tiny plant safe. Some plants

even surround their seeds with fruit! The fruit attracts animals who get a tasty treat. The seeds get spread around by the animals.

Hopefully they will find rich soil where they can grow. Some seeds are very light and use the wind to travel.

plants such as strawberry, clover, reed and ground elder naturally form a set of

connections to share information with each other through channels known as runners—horizontal stems that physically bond the plants like tubes or cables along the soil

surface and underground. Though connected to vertical stems, runners eventually form new buds at the tips and ultimately form a

network of plants.

Do they communicate and how if they do

get a cutting of that plant, go to a nursery and get the name of the plant and either ask them or look it up on the web.

How do you know if a plant is poisonous

There are lots of different weird plants and one of them is the Venus fly trap which when an insect crawls over the plant it has little hairs on it that senses the insect and closes its trap which is like a mouth and eats the insect.
