Question

Write short notes on:
- Normal functions of Root
- Symbiotic Root
- Stilt root

Answer 1

Roots provide support to the plant and help in finding water deep inside the ground.

The more the roots grow, so does the upper body of the plant.

Stilt roots are mainly to provide support.

A cluster of roots grow from the first or second node above the ground and then grown downwards into the soil.

Symbiotic roots have nodules on the roots which store nitrogen inside for storage and food.
