Use the stage names and picture features to check the order; then match each word to its picture row.
1. Seed → 2. Sprout → 3. Seedling → 4. Flower
1: Seedling = 3; Flower = 4; Seed = 1; Sprout = 2 2: Sprout = 2; Seed = 1; Flower = 4; Seedling = 3
Seedling → 4; Seed → 3; Flower → 2; Sprout → 1
▸ Practice and check The pictures show seed → sprout → seedling → flowering plant. Compare the stems and leaves in the sprout and seedling drawings, but do not turn a particular leaf count into a universal age rule for every plant. The flower is part of the growing plant, not a separate creature replacing its roots and leaves. This sequence stops at flowering and leaves out fruit and the production of new seeds. A seed also needs suitable conditions, including water, rather than already containing everything needed for unlimited growth. These missing parts can be discussed briefly without adding extra numbered answers. ▸ Worked example 1. Seed → 2. Sprout → 3. Seedling → 4.
