Answer 2

The taproot is the main root mostly seen in dicotyledonous plants that anchors them firmly and deeply in the soil.

Significance

• Helps the plant to survive wind and floods as they burrow deep in the soil.
• As they grow deeper than the fibrous roots, such plants are more drought-tolerant.
• The taproot and its lateral roots (secondary and tertiary ones) increase the surface area for the absorption of water and nutrients.
• It is also a food storage organ in plants like carrot, beetroot, parsley, turnip, etc.
