Mitä tarkoittaa

Juuri on kasvin osa, joka sijaitsee yleensä maaperässä ja joka on vastuussa veden ja ravinteiden imeytymisestä. Juuret kiinnittävät kasvin maahan ja tarjoavat sille mekaanista tukea. Juuren rakenne voi vaihdella eri kasvilajien mukaan, ja joillakin kasveilla on syvälle ulottuvat juuret, kun taas toiset saattavat kehittää laajalle leviäviä juuristoja. Juuret voivat myös varastoida ravinteita ja energiaa, kuten tärkkelystä.
