What is a stem of a plant?
Except for the root, leaf, flower, and fruit, the part that remains is called the
stem
.
How is the stem formed of a plant?
See, the plant is formed from one or the other seed, and on top of this seed there are two coverings which are called
seed cover
or seed coat.
What happens inside this seed, is an embryo is found and in this embryo,
there are two structures of cells, one of which is called
Plumule
and the other is called
Radicle
.
See, when the seed is put in the soil, after getting the mineral elements and water present in the soil,
the
plumule
and
radicle
present in the embryo start developing, out of which the
plumule
later forms the stem and the
radicle
forms the root.
Now you know that the stem is formed from the plumule present in the embryo.
