Explanation:
Inside of a plant's seed there is an embryo, which is what we call the baby plant. The embryo has a stem, leaves, and roots. When a seed gets planted into the ground, it will go through a growing process called germination. Germination happens inside the seed, and with just the right combination of soil, water, and sunlight (warmth), the embryo will start to grow.
Once the seed has germinated, the embryo will sprout and pop right out of the seed. The roots will grow down into the soil and start absorbing water and food from the soil, and the stem will shoot right up towards the sunlight. Once the leaves grow, the plant will be ready to start making food on its own.

- Most plants continue to grow as long as they live. They grow through a combination of cell growth and cell division (mitosis). The key to plant growth is meristem, a type of plant tissue consisting of undifferentiated cells that can continue to divide and differentiate.
