The function of the root in the coconut is the same as in most plants, it anchors the plant to the soil and provides a means (through the root system) to absorb water and nutrients from the soil.
The botanical name of the coconut palm is Cocos nucifera. The leaves of the coconut palm are known as fronds.
The coconut itself is the seed of a palm tree. Coconut dispersal is by water. It can travel for thousands of kilometer then settles on the land to germinate.
No it is fiberous rooted
No. Coconuts grow on palm trees; the process by which they come into being does not involve sexual relations-- it involves pollenation. The palm trees on which the coconuts grow can ultimately produce between 30 and 70 coconuts. (By the way, despite the name, a coconut is a fruit; it is not a nut.)
The Coconut palm is vulnerable to a couple deficiencies. Boron, manganese, magnesium and potassium deficiencies can effect this palm. Nutritient deficiencies are first noticeable in the yellowing around leaf edges and stunting of the growth rate. In bad cases and if something is not done the Coconut palm can die. To stop or attempt to stop deficiencies from happening, use foliar fertilization on a normal basis. Coconut palms are VERY VULNERABLE to Phytoplasma or deadly yellowing caused by little bacterial organisms. This disease is the top killer of these palms. The symptoms vary greatly from yellowing to fruit drop and death of affected trees.
The coconut palm tree is well adapted to grow on remote islands; the coconut can float in the ocean and drift to fertile new locations. Also, without coconut, we would have no macaroons.
