Answer:
Three root modifications with examples are as follows:
- Prop roots: Example →Banyan tree
- Tuberous roots: Example→Sweet potato.
- Reproductive roots: Example→Sweet Potato.
Explanation:
The primary function of roots is to absorb water and minerals from the soil. But they are also modified for support, food storage, and respiration.
- Prop roots: These roots develop from the branches of the tree and hang downwards. They penetrate into the ground and provide support to the tree. An example is the roots of a banyan tree.
- Tuberous roots: These roots are modified for food storage. An example is sweet potato.
- Reproductive roots: In some plants root cuttings are the main mode of reproduction. In such plants, the adventitious roots give rise to buds which develop into leafy shoots. An example is sweet potato.
