There are several plants that have edible stems; asparagus and celery come to mind.
yes onions do have stems as you can see the stem sticking out in the middle and if they didnt have stems they wouldnt be able to hold on to their natural resorces - - Samantha 10 years old
Hour,Day,Month,Year----Heavenly stems,-------Earthly stems.
On the reverse look at the knot in the ribbon that binds the wreath. If it has stems they will extend from the knot, one pointing to the last A in America the other to the U in United.
Stems are thicker than trims
Geotropism (also called gravitropism) is the turning or growth movement by a plant or fungus in response to gravity. Roots show positive geotropism (grow toward gravity - down) and stems show negative geotropism (grow away from gravity - up).
Yes, geotropism DOES determine the direction of growth. Negative geotropism is when a section of the plant grows upwards. For example, stems grow upward. Positive geotropism is when a section of the plant grows downwards. In this case, a plant's roots would be the perfect example.
Plants in the forest need to display positive phototropism to grow towards light for photosynthesis. They also exhibit negative gravitropism by growing their roots downward and stems upward to seek nutrients and support. Additionally, plants may show thigmotropism, bending or growing in response to physical touch or contact with other objects in the forest.
Positive gravitropism is the growth movement of a plant towards the gravity source, like roots growing downwards, while negative gravitropism is the growth movement away from the gravity source, like stems growing upwards. Both responses help plants optimize their growth in relation to gravity.
Examples of plants that exhibit positive geotropism include roots, which grow downward into the soil, and stems, which grow upward towards the light. Negative geotropism is seen in plants like vines, which grow away from the force of gravity, and in some flowering plants, whose pollen tubes grow upwards to reach the ovules.
Stems and leaves grow using positive phototropism, which is the tendency to grow towards a light source. This phenomenon is regulated by plant hormones like auxin, which promote cell elongation on the shaded side of the stem or leaf, causing it to bend towards the light.
When plant stems are placed on their sides, a phenomenon called gravitropism occurs. The plant senses the change in gravitational force and redirects its growth to orient itself upright. The stems will grow in the direction of the earth's gravitational pull to reach an upright position.

When a plant responds to the earth's gravitational pull, it is called gravitropism. This phenomenon involves the growth response of plant organs, such as roots growing downward and stems growing upward, in relation to gravity.
Stems that are adapted for climbing, such as tendrils or thorns, help vines cling to support structures for upward growth. This adaptation allows vines to reach sunlight for photosynthesis and maximize their access to nutrients and water. Climbing stems also help vines avoid competition for resources on the ground by growing vertically.
A few examples of negative geotropism in plants include roots growing upwards in response to gravity (negative gravitropism), stems bending away from the ground to grow upwards (negative phototropism), and leaves folding upwards in response to touch or vibration (negative thigmotropism).
