Answer:

Normal functions of root are:

  • Anchorage: They fix the plant to the soil firmly and provide mechanical support to the aerial shoot system.

  • Absorption: They absorb mineral nutrients and water from soil.

  • Transport of nutrients: Sugar produced in the leaves by photosynthesis is transported upto the root tip.

  • Conduction of water and minerals: The root brings about upward movement of absorbed water and minerals from the soil.

  • Prevention of soil erosion: The rocts hold the soil particle firmly together and thereby prevent soil erosion.
