(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
A stem is the above ground axis of a vascular plant. The young stem develops in the germinating seedling from embryonic tissue known as the hypocotyl. Lengthening of the hypocotyl lifts the cotyledon(s), plumule (leaf precursor tissues), and terminal or apical meristem above the ground. The surface cells differentiate and mature into a protective epidermal layer. A few cells interior differentiate as chollenchyma, providing support to the young stem. Clusters of elongated cells appear — these are the provascular strands. The remainder of the stem consists of parenchyma cells: those lying between the epidermis and the provascular strands forming a cortex and those interior to the provascular strands forming a pith. Parenchyma radiating from the pith between the precursors of the vascular bundles are called pith rays.These tissues are the early precursors of the mature stem tissues, and define the basic functions of the stem:
- Structural support;
- Growth through increase in diameter (girth) and elongation;
- Transport of fluids between the roots and the leaves.

The Stem technique in Skiing is usually credited to Mathias Zdarsky, from Austria, who invented it in the 1890s. Its variations gradually replaced the telemark technique in Alpine skiing.The technique involves "stemming" out the uphill ski - pushing it out from being parallel with the downhill ski to to form a V shape.
Stem varients
The three variations of the stem turn are:
The three variants together formed the basis of the Austrian Arlberg Technique and instruction system.
- The Snowplough - (also known as the wedge) - see snowplough turn
- The Snowplough turn - (also known as the wedge turn or stem turn)
