Answer:
In vascular plants, the root is the organ of a plant that typically lies below the surface of the soil.
Explanation:
The first root that comes from a plant is called the radicle. A root's four major functions are:
absorption of water and inorganic nutrients;
anchoring of the plant body to the ground, and supporting it;
storage of food and nutrients;
vegetative reproduction and competition with other plants.
Roots can also be aerial or aerating, that is, growing up above the ground or especially above water. Furthermore, a stem normally occurring below ground is not exceptional either (see rhizome). Therefore, the root is best defined as the non-leaf, non-nodes bearing parts of the plant's body. However, important internal structural differences between stems and roots exist.
