Parts of a Plant Science – Understanding Plant Structure
Parts of a Plant Science – Learning about the parts of a plant is an essential step in understanding how plants grow and survive. This lesson explains the main parts of a plant, their functions, and what plants need to grow. For more verified scientific details, you can refer to the Plant Structure article on Wikipedia.
Parts of a Plant Science

Objective
Pupils will learn the main parts of a plant, the role of each part, and what plants need to grow.
الهدف: سيتعلم التلاميذ أجزاء النبات الرئيسية ودور كل جزء وما تحتاجه النباتات للنمو
The Main Parts of a Plant
A typical plant has roots, stem, leaves, flowers, and sometimes fruits. Each part has a specific function that helps the plant survive and reproduce.
النبات النموذجي له جذور، ساق، أوراق، زهور، وأحيانًا ثمار. لكل جزء وظيفة تساعد النبات على البقاء والتكاثر
Roots – Anchor and Absorber
- Roots grow in the soil. They hold the plant in place and absorb water and minerals. Some roots also store food.
- Roots are usually hidden underground.
الجذور تنمو في التربة. فهي تُثبّت النبات في الأرض وتمتص الماء والمعادن من التربة. بعض الجذور تخزن الطعام. الجذور عادة مخفية تحت الأرض
Stem – Support and Transport
- The stem keeps the plant upright and transports water and nutrients from the roots to the leaves and flowers.
- It also moves the food made in the leaves to other parts of the plant.
تحمل الساق النبات وتبقيه منتصبًا كما تنقل الماء والمواد الغذائية من الجذور إلى الأوراق والزهور. تساعد الساق أيضًا في نقل الغذاء المصنوع في الأوراق إلى بقية أجزاء النبات
Leaves – Food Makers
- Leaves contain chlorophyll, which helps make food from sunlight through photosynthesis.
- They take in carbon dioxide from the air and use sunlight and water to produce sugar (food) for the plant.
الأوراق عادة خضراء لأنها تحتوي على الكلوروفيل، وهو مادة تساعد على صنع الغذاء من ضوء الشمس عبر عملية تُسمّى التركيب الضوئي. تمتص الأوراق ثاني أكسيد الكربون من الهواء وتستخدم ضوء الشمس والماء لصنع سكر (غذاء) للنبات.
Flowers and Fruits – Reproduction and Seeds
- Flowers are bright and attract insects or birds. Seeds are made inside the flowers.
- Fruits grow from flowers and carry seeds inside. Fruits help spread seeds when animals eat them.
الزهور غالبًا ما تكون زاهية وتُجذب الحشرات أو الطيور. داخل الزهرة تُنتج البذور. عندما تنمو البذور تصبح نباتات جديدة. الثمار تنمو من الزهور وتحمل البذور بداخلها. تساعد الثمار في نشر البذور عندما تأكلها الحيوانات.
What Plants Need to Grow
- Plants need light (sunlight), water, air, and soil.
- Without these, plants cannot make food or grow well. Different plants need different amounts of sunlight and water.
تحتاج النباتات إلى الضوء (ضوء الشمس)، الماء، الهواء، والتربة. بدون هذه الأشياء لا يستطيع النبات صنع الغذاء أو النمو جيدًا. النباتات المختلفة تحتاج كميات مختلفة من الضوء والماء.
