Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The primary root, or radicle, is the first organ to appear when a seed germinates. It grows downward into the soil, anchoring the seedling. In gymnosperms and dicotyledons (angiosperms with two seed leaves ), the radicle becomes a taproot .
Detailed explanation-2: -Radicle is the first part of the seedling. Plumule grows after the radicle. The radicle makes the root of the plant. Plumule makes the plant shoot.
Detailed explanation-3: -It is the first thing to emerge from a seed and down into the ground to allow the seed to suck up water and send out its leaves so that it can start photosynthesizing.
Detailed explanation-4: -The root that develops directly from the radicle is termed as true root.
