FAQs on Getting to know plants Class 6 PPT

1. What are the different parts of a plant?
Ans. Plants have various parts such as roots, stems, leaves, flowers, and fruits. Each part plays a specific role in the overall growth and function of the plant. The roots absorb water and nutrients from the soil, the stem provides support and transports water and nutrients to other parts, the leaves carry out photosynthesis, flowers help in reproduction, and fruits protect and disperse seeds.
2. How does photosynthesis occur in plants?
Ans. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water into glucose (energy) and oxygen. The leaves of plants contain a pigment called chlorophyll, which captures sunlight. This sunlight energy is then used to convert carbon dioxide from the air and water from the roots into glucose. Oxygen is released as a byproduct of this process.
3. Why are plants important for the environment?
Ans. Plants play a crucial role in the environment. They produce oxygen through photosynthesis, which is essential for all living organisms. Plants also absorb carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming. They help in maintaining the balance of atmospheric gases, provide habitats for animals, prevent soil erosion, and contribute to the water cycle by releasing moisture into the air through transpiration.
4. How do plants reproduce?
Ans. Plants can reproduce through various methods. They can reproduce sexually through the process of pollination, where pollen grains from the male part of a flower (stamen) fertilize the female part (pistil). This leads to the formation of seeds, which can grow into new plants. Plants can also reproduce asexually through methods like vegetative propagation, where new plants are formed from stems, roots, or leaves of the parent plant.
5. How do plants adapt to their environment?
Ans. Plants have several adaptations that allow them to survive and thrive in different environments. In deserts, for example, plants have long roots to reach deep water sources, thick waxy leaves to prevent water loss, and spines to deter herbivores. In tropical rainforests, plants have large leaves to capture maximum sunlight, drip tips to shed excess water, and buttress roots for stability in shallow soil. These adaptations help plants obtain necessary resources and protect themselves from external factors.
