Answers

Answered by pinakimandal53

Plants are classified into herbs, shrubs and trees based on the structure of their stem.

Hope this may help you.

Atharva2324: I need 4 types

pinakimandal53: I think that there can be two more types also - climbers and creepers. So, there can be total five classifications of plants on the basis of the nature of their stem.

Based on the structure of the stem, plants are primarily classified into three categories:

Herbs – These have delicate green stems.

Shrubs – They have hard and bushy stems with branches

Trees – They have very hard and thick stems that are referred to as trunks.

Some classifications include two other categories as well. They are

Creepers – They have very fragile stems and cannot support the entire plant weight. They can also not stand straight and grow by spreading horizontally on the ground.

Climbers – They too have weak stems, but their stems are a bit stronger than creepers. They can grow vertically on some support and bear their own weight.
