Question

6. What are the smaller roots emerging from the main root known as?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Taproot System: Characterized by having one main root (the taproot) from which smaller branch roots emerge. When a seed germinates, the first root to emerge is the radicle, or primary root. In conifers and most dicots, this radicle develops into the taproot.

Answer 2

• The plant consists of a taproot, lateral root, and fibrous root. Taproot is a central and large root, the lateral root extends from the primary root, and the fibrous root is a true root grow from the stems.

• A taproot is a primary root, the secondary roots arise from here.

• The smaller roots that emerge from the main root are known as lateral roots. lateral roots are the secondary roots that are smaller.

• The fibrous roots are the network of branching roots, are thin, grow from the stem.
