In most plants, the leaves carry out photosynthesis, while the stems provide stability to elevate those leaves above potential competition. In annual plants, whose entire life cycle from germinate to death is completed in a single year, the epidermis on the stem is often photosynthetic, as well.

It also covers plant development, including growth, germination, and flowering, as well as the functions of hormones like auxin and gibberellins.

Describe the differences between the monocot and eudicot stems. List the name and function of the main woody stem tissues: bark, epidermis, phloem, vascular cambium, and xylem. Describe the composition of wood and its annual rings, sapwood, heartwood, and bark. List the main uses of stems. Describe the differences among modified stems: rhizomes, tubers, bulbs, stolons/runners, corms, and cladophylls.

In the diagram below, label the bolded features, as well as the photosynthetic part of the leaf (the blade) and the stem of the leaf (the petiole).

What are the large holes in the root? In the stem cross section above, label the following: pith, secondary xylem, xylem ray, vascular cambium, secondary phloem, phloem ray, cortex, phelloderm, cork cambium, cork, and epidermis. Next, indicate where the oldest and youngest xylem cells are located. Note: the newest cells will be located closest to the meristem that produced them!
