Which feature of tap root prevents them by getting uprooted explain?
Answers
Answer:
A taproot is a large, central, and dominant root from which other roots sprout laterally. Typically a taproot is somewhat straight and very thick, is tapering in shape, and grows directly downward.[1] In some plants, such as the carrot, the taproot is a storage organ so well developed that it has been cultivated as a vegetable.
The taproot system contrasts with the adventitious or fibrous root system of plants with many branched roots, but many plants that grow a taproot during germination go on to develop branching root structures, although some that rely on the main root for storage may retain the dominant taproot for centuries, for example Welwitschia.
Answer:
The main root of any plant or tree, is called a tap root. It is the primary root, emerging at germination, to grow down into the ground to collect and conduct water from the soil. The tap root is also the main anchor for the growing plant.
