Answer:
Tap root
the main root of a plant which grows straight downwards and from which smaller roots grow.
Fibrous root
a root (as in most grasses) that has no prominent central axis and that branches in all directions.
Adventitious root
a root that arises from any point other than the radicle or the root axis (as the prop roots of corn arising from the lower stem) — compare aerial root.
Pneumatophores
an aerial root specialized for gaseous exchange.
