The roots of plants predominantly grow downward, towards the soil.
Plant roots typically grow in the direction of gravity, a process known as gravitropism. This helps roots anchor the plant in the soil and seek out nutrients and water for growth and survival. Additionally, roots may also respond to other environmental cues such as moisture and light.

The roots of a plant grow toward a source of water through a process called hydrotropism. Specialized cells in the root tip can sense moisture levels in the soil and direct the roots to grow in the direction where water is present. This helps the plant to efficiently absorb water and nutrients from the soil.
No, plant roots do not always go downward. Root growth is influenced by various factors such as soil type, water availability, and presence of obstacles. In some cases, roots may grow horizontally or even upwards in search of nutrients and water.
Succulent leaves grow roots to propagate new plants through a process called propagation. When a leaf is removed from the parent plant and placed in soil, it can develop roots from the base of the leaf. These roots allow the leaf to absorb water and nutrients, eventually forming a new plant.
Most plants have roots that grow both vertically and horizontally to varying degrees. However, taproots such as carrots and radishes primarily grow downwards, as do fibrous roots of grasses. Deep-rooted plants like oak trees and dandelions also have roots that grow predominantly downwards.

Not all plants have roots (eg phytoplankton) and while some plants do grow form their roots (eg grasses), most plants do not grow from their roots but from their apical growing tip.
No. Plants are designed for the roots to grow in the direction of gravity and the leaves to grow against gravity. A plant grown upside down will adapt by curving its stem upwards again.

Plants grow from the roots and seeds germinate in the roots as well.
