Answer:
Fungi have root like rhizoids.
Explanation:
- Rhizoid, a short, thin filament that binds the growing (vegetative) body of the organism to a substrate and has the ability to absorb nutrients, is found in fungus, certain plants, and sponges.
- The rhizoid is a part of fungi's thallus that resembles a root. It could act as a feeding organ (Rhizopus) or as a means of securing the thallus to its support (Chytridium).
- Rhizoids in plants, such as liverworts and mosses (division Bryophyta), bind the gametophyte to the substratum and make it easier for it to absorb water and minerals.
Rhizoids: what are they?
- Rhizoids resemble roots since they serve the purpose of holding the plant to the ground, a stone, a branch, etc.
- However, they are not actual roots because they cannot perform the functions of roots, such as storing food and absorbing water and nutrients.

Mosses are clump-forming, flowerless plants. They have no roots. Instead, they have rhizoids, thin growths that resemble roots and aid in stabilizing them.
Explanation:
- Rhizoids, which resemble roots, aid in the anchoring and water absorption of bryophytes.
- Rhizoid is a term used to describe a short, thin filament, or microscopic hair-like structures, that is used to anchor an organism to a surface and to absorb nutrients and water.
- This term may seem quite similar to the definition of a root in many vascular plants, which are leafy plants.
- Rhizoids primarily serve to secure the plant to the substrate. Depending on the species, rhizoids can also be utilised by the plant to absorb nutrients and water.
- Rhizoids are typically found in different types of bryophytes, while they have also been discovered in a few fungus and algae species.
- Rhizoids are located at the bottom of the organism of bryophytes.
