Water helps plants carry nutrients from the soil and keeps them hydrated. Without enough water, plants can't grow properly.

Sunlight is the most important source of energy for plants. Plants use sunlight to make their food through photosynthesis.

Plants need air, especially carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. This gas is used by the plant to make food during photosynthesis.

Soil provides the plant with nutrients and minerals needed for growth. It also keeps the plant anchored in the ground so it doesn't fall over.

How Plants Use These Resources

Water: Plants absorb water through their roots, and it travels up to the leaves.

Sunlight: In the leaves, sunlight is absorbed and used to make food for the plant.

Air: The plant takes in carbon dioxide through tiny holes in the leaves called stomata.

Soil: The roots absorb nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus, which help the plant grow strong.
