How Do Plants

Grow and Change?

How plants grow?

Most plants grow from seeds.

A seed coat is a covering that protects the seed.

If the seed gets water and warmth, the plant in it may

start to grow.

Seeds have a PLANT inside!

The roots grow down into the soil. Next, a stem grows

up.

Then, the leaves and flowers grow.
