D
C

Flower Parts & Functions

1. Pollen produced by the anther on top of
the stamen and contain the sperm cells
2. Pistil female organ of the flower and
contains the egg cells
3. Stamen male organ of the flower that
produces pollen
4. Petal the outer part of the flower that
attracts birds and insects
5. Ovary structure in which egg cells
develop into seeds

Plant Parts & Functions

A. Roots anchor the plant, take water and nutrients
from the soil
B. Stem provides support and allows the movement
of water and nutrients through the plant
C. Leaves absorbs the sunlight and makes food;
where photosynthesis occurs
D. Flower makes the seeds and attracts birds and
insects
Birds, insects, water, and wind help flowers pollinate.

Plants Response to Stimuli

Gravity makes plant roots grow downward

Pollination The transfer of pollen from the stamen (male part)
to the stigma (upper part of the pistil-female part).
Fertilization process of a sperm and egg cell joining together;
a fertilized egg grows into a new plant inside a seed

and stems grow upward

Light plants growing toward

light helps plants make more
food

Temperature seeds start to grow

(germinate) or leaf budding occurs
