Read the passage and answer the questions:

A plant consists of a few parts, which are roots, stem, leaves and fruit. The
roots of a plant are present below the soil. You cannot see them. They
support the plant to
remain erect and
absorb the water from
the soil and transfer it
up to the stem. The
stem is above the soil.
It takes the water from
the roots and transfers them to the leaves. They have special tubes inside
them which help them to transfer water. The leaves are present on the
stem and they use the water to make food for the plant in the presence of
sun light and air. As the plant grows, the stem becomes thicker and
stronger and more leaves grow to make more food for the plant. Slowly,
the plant grows and finally becomes a tree. Some plants may have fruits,
some may have flowers and some may have both. Some plants grow well
in summer when the sun is out and some may grow better in the cold
weather.
