Marigold plant which has reticulate venation.
2. What type of root wheat plant have?
Wheat has fibrous roots in their leaves.
3. Write the process by which plant make their food.
Photosynthesis is process by which plant make their food.
4. Name the tiny pores on the surface of a leaf.
Stomata
5. What is the function of chlorophyll?
Chlorophyll imparts green colour to the leaves.
6. Give some examples of plants having fibrous roots.
Millet, bamboo, sugar cane, etc
7. Define taproot.
A taproot is a straight tapering root which grows vertically down into the soil
and gives out branches on all the sides.
8. Name the different parts of flowers.
A flower consists of following parts:
1.Pedicel
2.Sepals
3.Petals
4.Stamens
5.Carpel
9. Define pollination.
Transfer of pollen grains from anther to stigma of a flower is known as
pollination.
10. List the main functions of root.
1.Root absorb water and nutrients from the soil which are needed by plant
leaves to make food.
2.Roots help in holding the soil together and thus prevents soil erosion
IV. SHORT ANSWER

Refer my cw
2. What is the function of seed coat?
Seed is surrounded by a tough covering called seed coat. It protects the seed
from outer harsh environment.

5. After learning about types of roots Amrita was too curious to see types of
roots in different plants. She started uprooting plants from the garden.
Shweta, her friend and classmate, on seeing this stopped her and told her that
one can determine the kind of root by just seeing the leaves. We need not
require to uproot the plants.
(a) What are the two types of roots?
Two types of roots are taproot and fibrous root.
(b) How leaves can determine the type of roots?
The design made by veins in a leaf is called the leaf venation. The pattern of
leaf venation determines the type of roots present in a plant. If the leaf have
reticulate venation then it has taproot and if the leaf have parallel venation
then it has fibrous root.
(c) What value of Shweta is shown here?
Shweta is intelligent, eco-friendly and have scientific aptitude.
