observe and note down the adaptation in the parts of plants like potato, groundnut, yam
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
All the plants in the complete ecosystem evolve according to their specific needs. Potato grows under the ground surface, which makes it a root product. Hence it should have its own extra roots for more absorption of water and nutrients.
This is the reason why potato has roots and high water content. Groundnuts must be majorly impervious to water so as to prevent the flow of its useful contents from mixing in the ground.
ANSWER:
OBSERVATION OF ADAPTATION IN PARTS OF PLANTS SUCH AS POTATO GROUNDNUT AND YAM:
Potato, groundnut and yam are found in underground. The fruits are inside the ground, only the shoot part is above the ground. Their fruit have a large amount of starch in it.
EXPLANATION:
The shoot is above the ground, it helps in the preparation of food through photosynthesis. The glucose formed is stored in the root which further develops fruit in it. They all have adventitious root. The adaption of adventitious root helps the plant to survive even though the upper part dies. The root absorbs water and nutrients from the soil and also stores the glucose. It became swollen and hence becomes fruit.
