Test: How Do Plants Make Their Food- 2 - Class 4 MCQ

• Plants store food in the form of starch in various parts like roots, stems, leaves, seeds, fruits, and flowers.
• Starch is like a special food that plants make and keep to use later when they need it.
• Just like how we store snacks for later, plants store starch to use when they can't make food themselves.

• Cactus is a desert plant.
• To prevent (reduce) the loss of water leaves are reduced to spines and the stem is modified to a fleshy part that stores water and performs photosynthesis.

• Sea slugs, little marine organisms, can survive for months without eating because they can do something special called 'photosynthesis'. This is like making their own food using light from the sun, just like how plants make food.
• So, sea slugs can stay healthy and full of energy even without eating anything for a long time!

• The Pitcher plant really does have sweet nectar at the bottom of its pitcher-like structure to attract insects.
• When insects come near, they are lured by the sweet nectar, slip down into the pitcher, and get digested by the plant.
• This is how the Pitcher plant gets its nutrients.
• It's like a sneaky trap for insects!

The extra food produced by plants during photosynthesis is stored mainly in the roots, stems, leaves, and sometimes flowers and seeds. This stored food is usually in the form of starch, which the plant can use later for energy and growth when needed.
