Corn has a modified stem known as a "culm," which is a type of grass stem. It is characterized by its hollow structure and segmented nodes, providing strength and support to the plant as it grows tall. The culm enables the plant to transport nutrients and water efficiently while also serving as a framework for the leaves and ears of corn.
A rhizome is a long modified stem that grows beneath the ground horizontally. It is often found in plants such as ginger, bamboo, and irises, and serves as a storage organ for nutrients and water.
Water chestnut is a type of aquatic vegetable plant that produces underwater tubers, which are a form of modified stem. The tubers grow underwater and serve as a storage organ for the plant.
A dry stem of a corn plant refers to the dried, dead stalk that remains after the corn plant has matured and the crop has been harvested. These dried stems are typically left standing in the field until they are removed during field maintenance or plowing.
