Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
Deep feeder tap root system has an elongated tap root which penetrates the deeper layers of the soil.
It is mostly found in trees.
Deep feeder tap root is also called straight tap root system.
In surface feeders the tap root does not elongate very much.
The secondary roots spread to a greater extent.
Such a system is also known as a cymose root system.
