What is the function of succulent plant stems?

Succulent stems play a very important role in the life of plants. They perform basic functions that are essential for healthy plant growth. With the help of succulent stems, the plant is able to receive all the necessary nutrients, which are attracted from the root system through the stems. The resulting nutrients from the roots are sent to the flowers and leaves. In addition, the succulent stems also perform another function, namely, they act as a kind of rod that holds the plant.
