subtrees
Parts within hierarchies
Subtrees are portions of a tree structure that are themselves complete trees.
In computing and mathematics, any node in a tree along with all its descendants forms a subtree: The left subtree contains all values less than the root.
The term appears frequently in discussions of data structures, algorithms, and hierarchical organization.
