Solution
The correct option is D A and B The region of cell differentiation or maturation is differentiated into root hairs. Most of the water absorption occurs through this region.
The roots are modified to form storage roots such as conical, fusiform, napiform, tuberous
Lateral roots extend horizontally from the primary root and this contributes to water uptake and nutrient uptake.
