                    TYPES OF PLANTS

                    We see different kinds of plants around us. Some

                    plants are big and strong, while others are small

                    and weak. Plants are of different sizes and shapes.

                    They can grow in very cold as well as very hot
                    places.

                    Plants can grow on land and in water.

                    The food we eat, the juices we drink and the clothes we

                    wear, all come from plants.

                    Trees provide us wood for fuel, furniture and tools.

                    Plants use sunlight as a source of energy to produce

                    their  food.This  process  is  known  as
                    photosynthesis.


                    Let us learn about various kinds of plants.
