“A stem is a structure that holds up a plant. The stem holds leaves upright so they can get sunlight. The stem also carries water, nutrients and food around the plant through tubes.
Stems can be soft and green like tulip stems. They can also be hard and woody like tree trunks. A trunk is a tree’s stem. ”
