Answer:

rhizome=a continuously growing horizontal underground stem which puts out lateral shoots and adventitious roots at intervals.

rhizoid=a filamentous outgrowth or root hair on the underside of the thallus in some lower plants, especially mosses and liverworts, serving both to anchor the plant and (in terrestrial forms) to conduct water.
