What part of the soil is the roots found in?

Oh geeze people, at least look up an answer before you write something...\n\nIt does depend on many factors like species, water table and soil type.  In general, roots are found growing in the O, A, and B horizons but they will find their ways through fisures in C horizons (bed rock).

This is more of a biological question, but as water enters soil, a plant's roots will essentially "drink" the water and provide the plant with it. The process of how the plant takes in the water is unknown at least to me.

Some seeds... the ground... water... the sun... \n\nIt's a pretty simple formula...

The red color is found in many soils around the world.\nThe cause of that is the presence of oxides and hydroxides of Fe and Al.\nThose soils are known as ''weatherized'', usually done by many, many years of exposure to heat and humidity.

No, the plumule is part of the shoot...it's the 'baby' or developing leaves. The radicle is the young/developing root

The answer is no they do not have roots.\n Toadstools and mushrooms are all fungi and fungi do not have roots but root like organs called rhizoids or rhizoidal hyphae ( root like branches ) to absorb the nourishment. \n In both the cases mentioned above what you see above the ground is only the fruiting body of the fungus. Rest of the fungus lies below the soil surface.

Any rooted plant does - you could pick an oak tree or a rose bush, or even a marijuana plant if you wanted.\n\nThe roots grow down, toward the center of gravity. The leaves and stem grow up, away from the center of gravity.

Soil saturation. Locations and soil types are constants.

Physically the soil is dark in colour and with course gravel particles and fine sand and clay particles in 1:2:1 ratio.Or it should have good water holding capacity and root growth\nChemically nitrogen in the form of nitrates and ammonia, enough phosphorus in the form of phosphorus pentoxide.Other elements potassium calcium and magnesium\nAbove all the soil should have proper pH between 6 and 7 for the growth of plant

There's an awful lot of ground that is cultivated.

Rhizobium bacteria are in the root nodules or legumes.

Plants have small openings on the underside of their leaves called stomata. The roots pull in water and it travels up and out the stomata. The lower humidity outside the plant pulls the water out.

No. In fact not every one of them. The cells which make up the roots of the plants do not because they are not designed for the process of photosynthesis.

1) is false, all the elements in living things can be found in non-living things\n\n2) this more tricky, what are these 4 elements most common in plants? I'm guessing: Hydrogen and Oxygen, (from water) Carbon, and . . .nitrogen???\nall these can be found in animals\nare you sure the question is asking about elements? elements in living things are pretty common to another. Its the compounds (hemoglobin, chlorophyll, etc) that get rather unique\n\ndo a little research, if some one cannot explain how they got the answer to a T/F question, you can't be sure they are just guessing

The Deccan Traps \n\nThe typical soil derived from the Deccan trap is the regur or black cotton soil. These soils vary in depth from shallow to deep. It is common in Maharashtra, western parts of Madhya Pradesh, parts of Andhra Pradesh, parts of Gujarat, and some parts of Tamil Nadu. Many black soil areas have a high degree of fertility. They are darker, deeper and richer and are constantly enriched by the additions washed down from the hills.

The "walking tree".\n\nThis tree has no central root as such and it stands on a large number of roots that grow close to or above the ground.\n\nThese roots tend to grow more on the side where there is light, and so if, for example, there seems to be more light to the west, more roots will grow on the west side and gradually the plant will move in that direction.\n\nThe trees can move up to 15 centimeters a year. This is an example of positive phototropism, that is, the tendency of plants to grow or turn toward light.\n\nBananas probably do something similar and I presume the direction is usually towards the equator.
