Stems are the above ground axes (stalks) of a vascular plant which are usually divided into nodes and internodes. The nodes bear the leaves, buds and shoots, while the internodes separate one node from another. The stems functions by supporting the plant, transporting water, minerals and food from the roots to other parts of the plant, formation of new living tissue and in storage of nutrients.
