A plant has two organ systems: 1) the shoot system, and 2) the root system. The shoot system is above ground and includes the organs such as leaves, buds, stems, flowers (if the plant has any), and fruits (if the ... The root system includes those parts of the plant below ground, such as the roots, tubers, and rhizomes.
