Trees: Tree Parts

The video tutorial explores how trees maintain stability through their roots, which anchor them firmly into the ground, even in strong winds. It then examines the structure and function of tree stems and trunks, highlighting the significance of annual growth rings in determining a tree's age. Finally, the video discusses the role of leaves and needles in photosynthesis, emphasizing their function as the tree's food factories, converting sunlight into energy.
