What to Focus On

  • Morphology means the study of external form and structure.
  • A flowering plant has a root system and a shoot system.
  • Roots anchor and absorb; stems support and transport; leaves make food; flowers help in reproduction.

  • Roots normally develop from the radicle.
  • Tap root persists; fibrous root replaces the primary root; adventitious roots arise from parts other than the radicle.
  • Roots are non-green, positively geotropic, and not divided into nodes and internodes.

  • Tap roots are common in dicots.
  • Fibrous roots are common in monocots.
  • Adventitious roots arise from parts other than the radicle.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Any underground structure with stored food is a root.

Potato is a root tuber and sweet potato is a stem tuber.

Rhizome and corm are the same because both are underground stems.
