Roots There are 5 main functions of roots: To anchor the plant in the ground To take in water and minerals To bring water and minerals up to the stems (xylem) To bring dissolved food from the stems to the roots (phloem) To store food. What are the 5 functions of roots?

The primary root is the first structure to emerge from the seed. What is the first structure to emerge from the seed? The primary root is the first structure to emerge from the seed. What are the structures called that grow off of the primary root? Secondary roots are roots that branch off the primary root.

Carrots, dandelions, oak trees are examples of taproot systems. There are three types of root systems: taproot, fibrous, and adventitious root systems. What are the three types of root systems? A taproot system is where the primary root is the largest root in the system. What is a taproot system? Carrots, dandelions, oak trees are examples of taproot systems. What are some examples of taproot systems?

A fibrous root system is where the secondary roots can be equal or larger in size to the primary root (hard to identify primary root). What is a fibrous root system? Corn, grass, sweet potato and tapioca are examples of fibrous root systems. What are some examples of fibrous root systems?

Adventitious root systems grow from the stems and leaves of plants. What root system grows from stems and leaves? Three types of adventitious root systems are climbing roots, aerial roots, and prop roots. What are three types of adventitious root systems?
