The roots balance and keep the plant up in the soil and soak up the water. Sorry it's simple but my keyboard is broken...
roots.
The soil sucks up the water and the water soaks into the roots of the corn
Root
to hold on to the soil, to absorb the water from the soil, to store food
A root holds the plant in place and it absorbs water and minerals from the soil.
A plant's roots anchor it in the soil and absorb water and nutrients. The roots expand and grow to search for water and minerals necessary for the plant's growth and survival.
A stem takes in all the nutrients and water from the soil to "feed" the plant.
The roots of a plant are responsible for taking in water and nutrients from the soil. They have root hairs that increase the surface area for absorption.
Yes, soil can hold water in the pores between its particles. The ability of soil to retain water depends on its composition, texture, and structure. Water in soil is important for plant growth and provides habitat for a variety of organisms.
Soil water saturation limits refer to the maximum amount of water that soil can hold. Saturation occurs when all pore spaces in the soil are filled with water. Beyond this point, excess water can lead to waterlogging and reduced oxygen availability for plant roots, which can negatively impact plant growth.
Plants absorb water through their roots from the soil. This water is then transported through the plant's vascular system to the leaves where photosynthesis takes place.
The roots absorb nutrients and water from the soil, which get distributed throughout the plant. They also help to hold the plant in place.
