The parts of an apple are the skin, the flesh, the core, the seeds, the stem, and the leaves.

 

 

The skin is the part that covers the outside of the apple. It protects the inside parts of the apple.

 

 

The flesh is the juicy part of the apple that you eat. It's juicy because it holds water.

 

 

The core is the center part of the apple that has the seed pockets. The seed pockets hold the seeds.

 

 

The seeds are the little black dots inside the core. They can grow into new apple trees if you plant them and take care of them.

 

 

The stem is the slender twig that connects the apple to the tree. The stem carries food and water into the apple.

 

 

The leaves are the little flat, green parts of the tree that cover the branches. The leaves make food for the apple so it can grow.
