Plants Grow from Air & Water

Science · Organisms & Life Processes · conceptual

Support an argument that plants get the materials they need for growth chiefly from air and water, not from the soil

What mastery looks like

  • Explain that plants take in carbon dioxide from air and water from soil to make food (photosynthesis)
  • Argue that most of a plant's mass comes from air (CO₂) and water, not soil minerals
  • Describe a simple investigation showing soil mass barely changes while a plant grows significantly

Check your understanding

If Plants Grow from Air & Water knows plants need water and sunlight, can they also explain that most of a plant's 'building material' actually comes from air and water rather than dirt?
