The phrase "She examined the leaves, stems, and flowers of each plant" means that the botanist closely observed and studied the leaves, stems, and flowers of each plant as part of her research. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

Option A is not the correct answer because it suggests the opposite of what the phrase conveys.

Option C is not the correct answer because it introduces the idea of watering the plants, which is not the intended meaning.

Option D is not the correct answer because it implies cutting down the plants, which is not mentioned in the passage.
