part of speech: noun
definition: Sap is a liquid that is found in trees and other plants. Sap is very important to a plant because it carries nutrients and water to all parts of it. Sometimes plants leak sap and you can see the drips on the outside of the plant. This sometimes happens because insects have gotten into it or there has been a cut.
If you touch a pine tree, you might get sticky sap on your hands.
