Answer:

The fleshy and green part of the cactus is the stem.

Explanation:

Cactus prepare their food through the process of photosynthesis, like any other plant. Since Cactus have their leaves reduced to spines, therefore photosynthesis takes place through the stem. The stems are green by the presence of Chlorophyll to make food for the plant. when it rains, water is stored in the stem. The stems are photosynthetic, green, and fleshy. A thick, waxy coating keeps the water inside the cactus from evaporating. Many cacti have very long, fibrous roots, which absorb moisture from the soil.
