2 lut 2023 · A typical plant stem consists of eight distinct parts, containing six elements and two organs. The six elements are: 1) nodes , 2) internodes , 3) terminal or apical bud , 4) lateral or axillary bud , 5) petiole and 6) pedicel.
A stem is one of two main structural axes of a vascular plant, the other being the root. It supports leaves, flowers and fruits, transports water and dissolved substances between the roots and the shoots in the xylem and phloem, engages in photosynthesis, stores nutrients, and produces new living tissue.

31 paź 2023 · Stems connect the roots to the leaves, helping to transport water, minerals, and sugars to different parts of the plant. Plant stems always have nodes (points of attachments for leaves, roots, and flowers) and internodes (regions between nodes).
18 maj 2024 · Development of stem starts from stem apical meristem (SAM) on the top of plant. The SAM produces three primary meristems: procambium, protoderm, and ground meristem. Protoderm cells differentiate into epidermal cells. The ground meristem differentiates into the cortex external layer of primary stem or root and pith central layer of primary stem ...
Stems primarily provide plants structural support. This tutorial includes lectures on the external form of a woody twig and the origin and development of stems. Also included are the different modified stems that carry out special functions.
3 wrz 2024 · haustorium. cane. stem, in botany, the plant axis that bears buds and shoots with leaves and, at its basal end, roots. The stem conducts water, minerals, and food to other parts of the plant; it may also store food, and green stems themselves produce food.
