Why some trees with roots submerged in water develop root systems above the water?
Trees with roots submerged in water may develop additional roots above the waterline to access more oxygen, which is essential for proper root function. By growing roots above the water, the tree can increase its oxygen intake and nutrient absorption, helping it thrive in waterlogged conditions.

Is duckweed partially submerge or fully submerged?
No, it is a floating plant, i know you might argue that the roots are underwater while the leaves are above but actually that counts as a floating plant, or else water hyacinth and water lettuce are half-submerged too. Floating plants is a plant that has it's leaves above water and it's roots dangling in water, partially submerged is leaves above water but roots in the soil below water, completely submerged is the roots in the soil below and the leaves also below water surface. -LJTG

What is the difference between prop roots fibrous roots and tap roots?
Prop roots are roots that grow above the ground to support the plant, fibrous roots are thin and highly branched roots that spread out close to the surface, while tap roots are a single thick main root with smaller branches.

Why a seed always develop its roots first?
A seed does NOT always develop its roots first. The sprout that first emerges from a seed is actually the part that will develop above ground if the seed is planted in the ground. The root develops once this sprout begins to shed its seed casing.
What are the half submerged plants in water?
Half-submerged plants are aquatic plants that have portions of their stem and leaves above water while the roots are submerged. Examples include water lilies, lotus plants, and certain types of reeds or rushes. These plants play a crucial role in providing habitat and filtering water in aquatic ecosystems.
Why are the root systems of most plants as large or larger than above ground plant parts?
Most root systems of most plants are larger than the above parts of the plant because the roots are trying to reach the water underground. Some roots that are very far from a water source have to have there roots go very far spread out and also very deep to get water. Some trees have roots that actually exceed the water table!
Can a potato form new roots I still need more information for my science project.?
It sure can. All you need is a potato, four toothpicks, and a glass of water. The toothpicks are arranged in the potato in such a manner as to support it on the rim of the glass ... half of the potato is submerged in water, the other half remains dry. Soon, new roots will appear in the submerged parts.
What about tap roots?

What is a submerged plant?
