Plants are also able to move and grow, even if they can’t get up and walk! They often bend towards the

Plants are also living things and they have to be able to do all the same things that animals and humans do to
stay alive, even if they do them slightly differently.
Plants need energy but they don’t get their energy from food - they get it from
sunlight.
Plants use their seeds to reproduce and grow new
plants.

All things that are living will eventually die. Leaves on trees will die every year and fall to the ground, and all
plants will eventually die.
Did you know that some trees can live for hundreds of
years?
