Taproot is the largest, most central, and most dominant root from which other roots sprout laterally. Typically a taproot is somewhat straight and very thick, is tapering in shape, and grows directly downward.

We can easily find if it is tap root or fibrous root by checking its leaf if it is tap root then it has reticulate venation and if it is fibrous root then it has parallel venation. Thank you for reading this fact.
