Which of the following crops has a fibrous root system?
Answer Details
Sugarcane has a fibrous root system. A fibrous root system is a type of root system that is made up of many small, branching roots that are roughly the same size. Sugarcane is a tall grass that grows in tropical and subtropical regions and has a fibrous root system that helps it to absorb water and nutrients from the soil efficiently. The other crops listed - cotton, coffee, and cowpea - have taproot systems or a combination of taproot and fibrous root systems.
