What you’ll learn to do: Identify basic common structures of plants
While individual plant species are unique, all share a common structure: a plant body consisting of stems, roots, and leaves. Deeper than this, all plants have the same type of cells (remember plant cells are different from animal cells!), which allow for the rigid structures found in plants.
In this section we’ll learn just how these different structures come together to form unique plants.
