There are many kinds of aerial roots.1. Velamen- multiple epidermis that surrounds the aerial roots of some epiphytic orchids; the velamen provides mechanical protection for the cortex and reduces water loss.2. Prop roots- roots that serve for support as in corn; can branch down from lower nodes of the stem or drop down from branches as in some trees, they can enter the soil and absorb water and nutrients. examples: mangroves, banyan tree, palms.3. Buttress roots- in shallowly rooted trees in the tropics at the base of the trunks are buttress roots- may be to 4m tall; specialized for support with large amount of fibers and small amounts of xylem.4.

What is the difference between the flower producing new seeds and the new flower?
When a flower produces new seeds, it is the result of pollination and fertilization, leading to the formation of seeds for reproduction. On the other hand, a new flower is a separate plant that grows from a seed or cutting and develops its own flowers for reproduction. The flower producing seeds is part of the reproduction process, while the new flower is a continuation of the plant's life cycle.

But , plants usually do not breathe through their roots ( mostly through leaves ) . Mostly soil particles can go through roots but I don't know how.
Why does a violet put its roots in the soil?
