Explore how green plants grow and produce food for our planet! Inspect the roots, stem, leaves, flower, and seeds, experiment with the solar kitchen of photosynthesis, and follow the miraculous journey from a tiny seed into a blooming plant.
The solar food factory: green chlorophyll absorbs sunlight and carbon dioxide to make food.
Green leaves have microscopic breathing pores called stomata that inhale CO2 and exhale oxygen.
Plant anatomy, life cycle stages, solar photosynthesis, and botanical science tips.
Roots anchor and drink, the Stem transports nutrients, Leaves capture sunlight, Flowers attract pollinators, and Fruits protect seeds.
Plants combine Sunlight + Water + Carbon Dioxide to produce Glucose (food) and exhale Oxygen (O2) for all animals to breathe.
A plant's journey travels from Seed to Germination, growing into a Seedling, producing Flowers for pollination, and bearing Fruit with new seeds.
Plant leaves contain chlorophyll, a natural green pigment that absorbs red and blue sunlight wavelengths while reflecting green light.
Place a dry bean inside a damp paper towel in a plastic cup near a sunny window to watch the root and green shoot emerge in days.
Plants are the primary producers supporting all terrestrial food webs and producing the oxygen that keeps living things alive.
Free tools that often go together. Everything runs in your browser.
It is a free interactive botany tool for kids and elementary students to discover plant anatomy, the seed life cycle, and photosynthesis.
The five main parts are Roots, Stem, Leaves, Flower, and Fruit/Seeds.
Photosynthesis is the process where green plants use sunlight energy to turn water and carbon dioxide into food (sugar) and oxygen.
Flowers use colorful petals and nectar to attract insects like bees and butterflies, which carry pollen between flowers for reproduction.
The 5 stages are Seed, Germination (sprouting), Seedling (young leaves), Flowering Plant, and Fruit & Seed Dispersal.
Practice mode offers three self-paced quizzes: ordering life cycle stages, identifying plant parts, and testing photosynthesis concepts.
