We studied the anatomy of some prostrate plant and some climber plant stem by bringing them to the laboratory. For this we first prepared the slide of the stem of the plant then measured the size of xylem and phloem visible in the microscope with the help of micrometry . We repeated the same action on 11 prostrate plants and 17 climber plants and noted the size of xylem and phloem visible in it.

3. Introduction
We see a huge variety of plants all around us. Among which few are terrestrial and
aquatic plants. Despite this fact, they all have the same parts and the same oval-
oblong; they appear unique with different types of roots, stem, leaves, flowers,
fruits, seeds etc. Therefore, the classification of plants is mainly based on several
factors, and it can be further classified based on their height, tenderness of stem,
branches and their life cycle.
Here the anatomy of the stems of mainly two types of plants has been
discussed.
1. Climbers are much more advanced than creepers. Climbers have a very thin, long and
weak stem which cannot stand upright, but they can use external support to grow vertically
and carry their weight. These types of plants use special structures called tendrils to climb.
Few climbers plants names include pea plant, grapevine, sweet gourd, money plant, jasmine,
runner beans, green peas, etc.
1. Prostrate A woody plant with branches spreading along the ground or lying flat on the ground, or
spreading along the ground for most of its length but with tips turning upwards. Exa- Coat bottom ,
maxican clover, asthma plant, knot grass etc.

6. Result
Different size xylem and phloem were studied in prostrate and climber plants.
Since the mechanical strength of prostrate and climber plants is different, xylem
and phloem of different sizes are found in them, which helps them in nutrition and
food supplementation. The size of xylem and phloem seen in a section cutting of
stem of climber and prostrate plant is shown in the table below.

8. Conclusion
We studied the anatomy of some prostrate plant and some climber
plant stem by bringing them to the laboratory. For this we first
prepared the slide of the stem of the plant then measured the size of
xylem and phloem visible in the microscope with the help of
micrometry. We repeated the same action on 11 prostrate plants
and 17 climber plants and noted the size of xylem and phloem
visible in it. Its conclusion is that the size of xylem and phloem is
different in climber and prostrate plants in some prostrate plants the
xylem is not differentiated into protoxylem and metaxylem
