An organ system is a biological system consisting of a group of organs that work together to perform one or more functions.

Main article: List of systems of the human body There are 11 distinct organ systems in human beings,[2] which form the basis of human anatomy and physiology.

The shoot system consists stems, leaves, and the reproductive parts of the plant (flowers and fruits).

The shoot system generally grows above ground, where it absorbs the light needed for photosynthesis.

The root system, which supports the plants and absorbs water and minerals, is usually underground.
