Study Notes
Stem Characteristics
- Hydrotrophic characteristic of Stem 1: growth towards water
- Presence of Axillary buds in Stem 1 is associated with the characteristic of branching
- Stem 1 shows a positive geotrophic response, growing upwards against gravity
Functions of Stems
- Primary function of stems: to support the plant and transport water, nutrients, and sugars
- One of the functions of stems in some plants: to produce flowers, fruits, and leaves
- Stems may store food, water, or nutrients in some plants
