since they grow in the ground they grow roots in the ground for nutrients and the sun also helps it give energy to grow the roots under ground also capture the water in the ground because that's their only way of capturing water.
plants need a way to break food down in order to get energy.

plants nedd a way to absorb the substance they must have to make food....
Alll plants need to be watered and need roots..
Roots of plants tend to grow away from sunlight because they exhibit negative phototropism. This ensures that they grow towards moisture and nutrients in the soil rather than towards the light which roots do not need for photosynthesis. Roots need to grow where they can efficiently absorb water and nutrients to support the plant's growth and development.
Plants do not have a stomach. They obtain nutrients through their roots and then transport them to different parts of the plant for growth and development. Plants do not have digestive systems like animals do.
Plants generate their own energy by reacting carbon dioxide and water with sunlight to produce sugar and oxygen (photosynthesis). They get other nutrients from the soil through their roots. Because they obtain everything they need through these means they don't need to consume any food.
Roots that grow horizontally are called adventitious roots. These roots develop from plant stems or leaves rather than from the primary root system. They are commonly found in plants that need extra support or in those that have adaptations for absorbing water and nutrients from the surrounding environment.
Plants need roots for survival and growth because roots anchor the plant in the soil, absorb water and nutrients from the soil, and store food for the plant. Without roots, plants would not be able to take in essential resources for their growth and would not be able to support themselves upright.
desert plants with long roots require less water.
they need roots to suck in water
Plants need roots to anchor themselves in the soil, to absorb water and nutrients from the soil, and to store energy reserves. Roots also help to support the plant's structure and aid in reproduction by absorbing nutrients necessary for flowering and fruit production.
