AI overview

A branch is a stem that grows out from another stem on a plant, or more broadly, any structure like leaf veins that divides into smaller parts. Branches matter because they allow plants to extend outward and distribute their leaves, flowers, and fruits more widely to capture sunlight and reproduce.
