Question

Why is it difficult to pluck lateral roots from carrot?

Answer 1

Answer:

Roots are very important for every plant. Generally, roots are grown from the lower portion of the plant.

In carrots, it is difficult to pluck the lateral roots because the size and shape of the root is typical in carrots.

In carrots, lateral roots grow from the branching of xylem surrounded by phloem.

These roots extend horizontally from the radicle this will help to the plant grow straightly.

That's why we can not pluck the lateral roots from carrots.
