Leaf
– Substance necessary for the functioning of an organism
Nutrient

Perfect flower
– A division of a flower inside the calyx
Petal
– Process by which green plants, using chlorophyll and sunlight energy, produce
carbohydrates from water and carbon dioxide and release oxygen
Photosynthesis
– The female element of a flower; composed of stigma, style, and ovary
Pistil
