  1. Answer:

    ☆ Tap Root ➝

    • Tap root has only one main and long root. The smaller roots that grow from the main root are called lateral root.

    • Tap root grows vertically deep into the soil

    • Tap roots are found in plants which have reticulate venation in their leave.

    • Tap root is much longer and has extremely large surface area.

    • A single plant has only one tap root.

    ☆ Fibrous Root➝

    • Fibrous roots do not have a main root. All roots are similar.

    • Fibrous roots are short and most of them grow horizontally in the soil.

    • Fibrous roots are found in plants which have parallel venation in their leaves.

    • Fibrous roots are short and have small surface area.

    • A single plant can have hundreds of fibrous roots.

    I hope it’s helpful for you.
