Breathing roots help a plant that grows in a marshy area bu the following way:
- Breathing roots are exposed to the air for at least half a day. To cope up with an anaerobic condition or the oxygen-poor condition, various plants have this adaptivity to get enough air through these breathing roots.
- They can be found in swamp areas like mangroves or in rainforest areas. In marshy areas, there is poor oxygen content and less nutrient soil.
- This results in roots getting less oxygen to breathe in for the process of photosynthesis. So, in order to get sufficient oxygen, the roots grow upwards.
