Many people do not know, but the root is an organ that is part of plants. Generally, the root of the plant is below the surface of the soil and has two specific functions that consist of fixing the plant to the soil and also to absorb water, nitrogen compounds and other types of substances such as phosphorus and potassium (which consist of raw or inorganic matter).
