Roots can be larger in volume and spread than the visible parts of a tree, depending on the species and environmental conditions. While the trunk and branches may dominate the above-ground structure, roots often extend far beyond the tree's height and width, searching for water and nutrients. In many cases, the root system can be extensive enough to support a tree much larger than its above-ground size suggests.
