The wide range in the structure of higher plants will never fail to fascinate us.

Even though the

anglosperms show such a large diversity in external structure or morphology. They are all
characterized by presence of roots stems leaves flowers and fruits. In chapters 2 and 3 , we talked
about classification of plants based on morphological and other characteristics. For any
successful attempt at classification and at understanding any higher plant (or for that matter any
living organism ) we need to know standard technical terms matter any and standard definitions
we also need to know about the possible variations in different parts found as adaptations of the
plants to their environment adaptions to various habitats for protection climbing storage . if you
pull out any weed you any will see that all of them have roots stems and leaves they may be
bearing flowers and fuits the underground part of the flowering plant is the root system while the
portion above the ground forms the shoot system in majority of the dicotyledonous plants the
direct elongation of the radicle leads to the formation of primary root which grows inside the soil
it bears lateral roots of several orders that are referred to as secondary tertiary etc roots the
primary roots and its branches constitute thewhat are the features that distinguish a stem from a
root the stem is the ascending part of the axis bearing branches leaves flowers and fruits it
develops form the plumule of the embryo of the germinating seed the stem bears nodes and
internodes the region of the stem where leaves are born are called nodes while internodes are the
portions between two nodes green when young and later often become woody and dark brown
the main function of the stem is spreading out branches bearing leaves flowers and fruits it
conducts water, minerals and photosynthates . some stems perform the function of storage of
food support , protection, and of vegetative propagation.woody and dark brown the main
