What part of a plants root takes in water and nutrients?

The parts of roots that take up nutrients in a plant are known as fibrous roots. In a tree for example, these are found near the surface of the ground and extend to the 'drip line' of the tree (the area where water drips to from the leaves). You can see fibrous roots if you dig down around six inches, particularly towards the end of the drip line.


How do dandelion roots differ from roots of grass?

Dandelion roots tend to be taproots, growing deep into the ground, while grass roots are fibrous and spread out horizontally. Dandelion roots are larger and more robust compared to the finer, shallower roots of grass. Dandelion roots store energy reserves for regrowth, while grass roots primarily serve for nutrient and water absorption.
