The parts of a plant / What plants need to grow Teacher's Notes Roots -> Take in water and food (mineral salts) from soil. Anchors plants. The roots of a plant are spread out. Stem -> "Like a straw", transports water through plant. Raises the height of flowers and leaves. Brings closer to light. Structural. The stem is made up of little tubes. Leaves -> Different shapes. Almost always green but sometimes covered with another colour such as red. Green substance in leaves -> chlorophyll. Leaves make food for the plant. To do this they need the water and mineral salts obtained from the soil. They are carried inside little veins in the leaf. To make food leaves also need sunshine and CO2. Flowers - > Flowers produce seeds which form new plants. Space and warmth also needed for a plant to grow. The parts of a plant Roots - Stem - Leaves - Flowers The _______ of a plant produce seeds which form new plants. The _____ make the food for the plant. They take the water and mineral salts and use them together with sunlight and carbon-dioxide to make food. The ____ is like a straw. It moves water around the plant. It raises the leaves and flowers of the plant off the ground. The ____take in water and mineral salts from the soil. They anchor the plant into the ground.

Many of us are born, live, and grow old, without ever really knowing how our body works. Our body is an amazing creation. Knowing about our body, and how it works, can help you maintain a strong and healthy body. Our body consists of many systems working individually, and together, to keep us alive. These systems include the cardiovascular system or circulatory system, digestive system, endocrine system, lymphatic immune system, muscular system, nervous system, reproductive system, respiratory system, sensory system, skeletal system, and urinary system. Check out the following sections to learn more about the human body, and how it works. For more detail, also see our Human Body Video Collection.

Vertebrate animals

Animals with an internal skeleton made of bone are called vertebrates. Vertebrates include fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals, primates, rodents and marsupials. Although vertebrates represent only a very small percentage of all animals, their size and mobility often allow them to dominate their environment.

Animals kinqdom

There are many different types of animals in the world. Many animals are quite similar to each other. Others are quite different. Animals can be classified based on their similarities. Continue on, and learn more about your fellow Earth inhabitants. Here are some of the animals you can investigate in our Science Reference Library. The first name you read is the common name for the animal. The name in parentheses ( ) is the Latin word for the group (the phylum or subphylum or class or group or order) that scientists sometimes use to refer to animals.

information about invertebrate animals

Of the million or more animal species in the world, more than 98% are invertebrates. Invertebrates don't have an internal skeleton made of bone. Many invertebrates have a fluid-filled, hydrostatic skeleton, like the jelly fish or worm. Others have a hard outer shell, like insects and crustaceans. There are many types of invertebrates. The most common invertebrates include the protozoa, annelids, echinoderms, mollusks and arthropods.Arthropods include insects, crustaceans and arachnids.
