Tap root system: The radical elongate and forms primary root or tap root that bears number of lateral roots. It is found in dicot root. eg: the mustard plant. 2. Fibrous root system: In monocotyledonous plants, the primary root is short lived from there thin fibre roots originates. eg: wheat plant. 3. Adventitious roots: In grass, Monstera and the banyan tree, roots arise from parts of the plant other than the radicle. Regions of the Root: 1. Region of Root cap: It is the covering of root apex that protects the tender apex. 2. Region of Meristem: Thi...

CBSE Class 11 Biology Chapter 5 notes –Morphology of Flowering Plants Morphology is the branch of Science which mainly deals with the external structure and features of the living system. It is basically about the study of forms, morphological characteristics and relative positions of different parts of plants.
