Question

Students in the class were asked to imprint the leaf of grass and mango on the paper. After the activity, teacher stated that "By looking at the impression of leaves, we can find out whether the plant has taproot or fibrous root." Illustrate your answer with reason.

Answer 1

Answer:

hi!

here is ur answer!

Explanation:

if we see a leaf of the grass, it is very slim, and really straight and thin, in a single line. the same is for tap root. tap root is nothing but the root which only goes down in one direction and doesnt have much fibres or other minor roots in other directions. hence the leaf of the grass being thin and in one direction symbolizes taproot.

as for mango, it is very wide and the leaf leaves a big impression. fibrous root is the one which has one main root out of which several small and thin roots spread out in different directions forming a bunch. this bunch is wide similar to the impression of the leaf, hence proved that it symbolizes fibrous root.
