Answer 2

Answer:

Rhizoids are hair like structures present in lower forms such as algae, bryophytes, pteridophytes. These are not called as roots because unlike roots these are not very strong and do not have vascular bundles. Rhizoids are root-like structures that absorb water and nutrients.

Explanation:

A rhizoid (such as is found on the gametophytes of bryophytes or ferns) is basically just a filament that anchors the plant to the ground. A root, on the other hand, is a sophisticated structure containing many differentlayers including vascular tissue, playing a key role in water and nutrient uptake.
