Answer 2

Answer:

Rhizoids and rhizomes

Explanation:

Roots are represented by root like structure called rhizoids in less developed lower plants(bryophytes and Pteridophyta). The plant tissue system in these is not differentiated into true leaf, stem and roots as it is found in higher plants (gymnosperm and angiosperm). Rhizoids and rhizomes are two root-like structures that function differently. Rhizoids are small root-like filaments which help bryophytes and fungi to attach onto a substrate and absorb nutrients and water. Rhizomes, on the other hand, are root-like modified, underground stems which store foods and are useful in vegetative propagation. Rhizomes are able to give rise to new plants. Rhizomes have internodes, small leaves, buds, and nodes. Moreover, they grow horizontally underground, unlike rhizoids.
