Question :- My roots are different from the others . Who am I ?

1) Fenugreek

2) Maize

3) Groundnut

4) Tamarind

Answer :- (2) Maize

Explanation :- There are two main types of root systems :-

(i) Tap root system :-

  • Tap root has only one main and long root.
  • The smaller roots that grow from the main root are called lateral roots.
  • They are also called true roots.
  • Tap root grows vertically deep into the soil and has extremely large surface area.
  • A single plant has only one tap root.
  • Tap roots are found in plants which have reticulate venation in their leaves.
  • Ex :- Mango, Neem, Fenugreek, Pea, Carrot, Tamarind, Beetroot, Groundnut, Pine, etc.

(ii) Fibrous root system :-

  • Fibrous roots do not have a main root.
  • They grow from the base of the stem and have a bushy appearance.
  • Fibrous roots are short and most of them grow horizontally in the soil.
  • They are found in plants which have parallel venation in their leaves.
  • A single plant have hundreds of fibrous roots .
  • Ex :- Grass , Maize , Wheat, Onion, Rice , Sugarcane etc.

therefore, we can conclude that, Fenugreek, Groundnut and Tamarind have tap roots while Maize have fibrous root.

Hence, Option (2) is correct answer.
