A cactus
The stem of a cactus performs the function of a leaf because it has evolved to carry out photosynthesis. In some cacti, the stem is able to produce chlorophyll and carry out photosynthesis, enabling the plant to generate energy from sunlight. This adaptation allows cacti to survive in arid environments where leaves would lose too much water through transpiration.
