fleshy roots are for storage of food and water.
The roots of a plant serve as a center for absorption of water and nutrients from the soil. Additionally, the roots act as a storage organ for excess nutrients and energy in the form of starch.
Specialized roots are root structures that have evolved to perform specific functions in a plant, such as storage roots (e.g., carrots), prop roots (e.g., maize), or pneumatophores (e.g., mangroves). These roots are adapted to the plant's environment and serve unique roles in nutrient uptake, support, or survival in challenging conditions.
