roots An organ of a vascular plant, normally underground, that holds the plant upright and absorbs moisture and nutrients from underground.
seeds An embryotic plant that is covered by a seed cover and usually has available food source. It is the product of fertilization of a vascular seed plant.
stems An organ of a vascular plant that holds the plant straight. It also has vascular tissues to transport water and nutrients across different parts of the plant, from the root to the leaf.
unicellular An organism that is made of one cell. Also, and algae that is singular and by itself. E.g. Amoeba Compare multicellular
