Breathing roots help a plant that grows in a marshy area by 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.
