Question

The water taken up from the soil with difficulty evaporates from the

leaf in the sun’s scorching heat. However a coat of wax like material

on the stem prevents it. What is the role of stem here ??​

Answer:

The primary functions of the stem are to support the leaves; to conduct water and minerals to the leaves, where they can be converted into usable products by photosynthesis; and to transport these products from the leaves to other parts of the plant, including the roots.
