Roots
Plants
have
various
structures,
each
serving
a
different
purpose
for
keeping
a
plant
alive
and
healthy.
Plant
roots
anchor
the
plant
firmly
into
the
soil,
store
food,
and
most
importantly
absorb
water
and
nutrients
from
the
soil.
Stems
Plant
stems
perform
two
basic
functions:
they
support
the
leaves
and
flowers
and
they
carry
water
and
nutrients
within
the
plant.
The
xylem
carries
water
and
nutrients
from
the
roots
to
the
leaves.
The
phloem
carries
sugar
away
from
leaves
to
the
rest
of
the
plant.

The
Process
of
Photosynthesis
Plants
make
food
in
the
form
of
sugar
through
the
process
of
photosynthesis.
Photosynthesis
takes
place
in
the
chloroplast
of
a
plant
cell.
Chlorophyll
found
in
the
chloroplast
of
the
plant
cell
absorbs
sunlight.
Plants
use
carbon
dioxide
they
take
in
from
the
air
around
them,
water
they
get
from
the
soil
through
their
roots,
and
energy
from
the
Sun
to
produce
oxygen
and
sugar.

Leaves
Most
of
a
plant’s
food
is
made
in
the
leaves.
A
leaf
is
made
of
many
layers
that
are
sandwiched
between
two
layers
of
tough
skin
cells
called
the
epidermis.
These
layers
provide
protection
for
the
leaf
from
insects
and
other
pests.
Leaves
have
tiny
pores
called
stomates
which
allow
water
and
gases
to
pass
in
and
out
of
the
plant.

Plants
have
two
different
root
systems.
A
taproot
system
consists
of
one
main
large
root
that
grows
directly
down
into
the
soil.
A
fibrous
root
system
consists
of
many
roots
that
grow
underground
in
many
directions.
