Roots- Organ that anchors a vascular plant (in the soil usually), absorbs minerals and water, and often stores organic material. The taproot are in most eudicots and gymnosperms with one main vertical root developed from the embryonic root. Taproots often store organic nutrients that the plant consumes during flower and fruit production. In seedless vascular plants and monocots there are not taproots the embryonic root dies and the formation of the roots is considered fibrous root systems. Most importantly the roots is the main source for plants absorption of water and minerals. TERM 2

DEFINITION 3 Stems- Organ consisting of nodes where leaves are attached along with internodes. The axillary bud is used to structure formation of lateral shoot known as branches. Terminal buds are developing leaves and a compact series of nodes and internodes. The proximity of the terminal bud is partly responsible for inhibiting growth called apical dominance. This increases the exposure to sunlight. TERM 4

Consist of a petiole and axillary bud b)compound leaf- in a compound leaf, the blade consists of multiple leaflets. The axillary bud is not formed at the base and consist of a leaflet petiole and axillary bud. c)doubly compound leaf- each leaflet is divided into smaller leaflets and contain the same parts as a compound leaf with doubled leaflets.
