982 - How do plants reproduce?

Plants reproduce in different ways. Here are some ways:

  1. Seeds: Plants make seeds, which grow into new plants. For example, you can plant an apple seed from a juicy apple to grow an apple tree.

  2. Pollination: Some plants need help from bees, butterflies, or other insects to make seeds. These insects go from one flower to another, carrying pollen (a special dust) to help plants make seeds.

  3. Stems and Roots: Some plants can grow new plants from their stems (like potatoes) or roots (like strawberries). You can cut a piece of stem or a root and plant it, and a new plant will grow.

  4. Fruits and Vegetables: Some plants make fruits or veggies that have seeds inside, like tomatoes or oranges. When you plant a seed from one of those, it can grow into a new plant.

That's how plants make more plants!
