When the mineral nutrients in the soil dissolve in water‚ plant roots have the ability to absorb them.

direction. Different parts of a plant exhibit different reactions to light. Stems exhibit positive phototropism while most roots exhibit negative phototropism. Geotropism is the growth response of a plant in response to gravity. Roots exhibit positive geotropism while stems and leaves exhibit negative geotropism. Hydrotropism is the growth response of a plant to water. Roots exhibit positive hydrotropism. Thigmotropism is the growth response of a plant to physical contact (touch). Plants that

mangrove trees must withstand being submerged twice a day by saltwater tides. The soil in which these trees grow in maybe sand but it is mostly rich mud. This rich mud is high in nutrients but low in oxygen. Mangroves have these aerial and salt filtering roots and salt excreting leaves that help them occupy the fluctuating wetlands. Salinity‚ temperature and oxygen are all abiotic factors used to help with the growth of this ecosystem. Salinity is a measurement of the amount of salt in the water. To

Many plants such as carrots‚ store food in their roots. Seeds: these contain a tiny embryo of a plant inside. The seed halves contain food‚ which supplies energy and materials for growth until the plant grows its first leaves above the ground. ROOT In vascular plants‚ the root is the organ of a plant that
