Sometimes roots get modified to perform different functions like Storage of food, respiration, climbing, etc. These types of roots are called modified roots. Examples - prop root of the Banyan tree for providing support, Pneumatophores of Rhizophora, and Mangrove plants for respiration. So, these statements are correct. A. To give support to the plant. C. To store food. D. To absorb water and minerals.
