Plants need energy and matter to grow. Where do plants get their ENERGY?
Where do plants get their MATTER?
Where do plants get their FOOD (be careful - this is a trick question)?
Why are plants called Producers?
What would happen if plants didn't have a way to get energy?
What would happen to animals if there were no plants to eat?
What are some of the LIVING components of a plant "system"? (A plant "system" is everything that a plant needs to survive and everything it produces.)
What are some of the NON-LIVING components of a plant "system"?
In what ways do the components of the system interact?
What matter is transported in and out of the plant system?

Plants need sunlight, soil, and water. Those forms of energy and matter help the plant grow.
Plants get their matter from energy there effects do the same thing and helps the plant grow.
Plants food is sunlight and carbon dioxide.
They are called producers because they produce so many things like flowers, leave and so much more.
They would srivel up and die.
Animals would not get any food and they will have to eat other animals there will not be those animals anymore.
The living componat is sunlight because sunlight is its food.
Water and soil becasue it can not grow without those two things.
They all go in the vanes of the plant and the plant gets it to were it needs to go.
It is trans ported through the plants vane. It gets out from the leaves.
