When plant roots are placed in water, they absorb oxygen and nutrients from the water. This stimulates root growth as the plant seeks to access more resources to support its growth. Over time, roots may continue to grow in water if they are able to acquire sufficient nutrients and oxygen for sustenance.

Where do the roots of a plant grow toward a source of water?
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.
