The root system anchors the plant in the soil, absorbs water and minerals from the soil, and stores the products of photosynthesis received from the leaves.
The shoot system consists of the stem and leaves. A stem usually supports the leaves so that they are exposed to sumlight. Leaves carry on photosynthesis and thereby produce the nutrients that sustain a plant.
