Expert Solution
Introduction

Roots and shoots are the two main regions of a plant. Roots are below the ground and they help plants get water and inorganic nutrients from the soil. They do not perform photosynthesis like aerial parts of the plants, therefore, get organic nutrients from the leaves and other plant regions that perform photosynthesis.
