    This document describes an activity to distinguish different types of specialized roots. Students examined specimens like carrots, cassava, and orchid roots to identify their specialized parts and functions. They filled out a table listing each specimen's specialized part, such as tuberous roots or aerial roots, and the corresponding specialized function, such as food storage or absorbing moisture. Students also drew and labeled diagrams of specimens like ube, camote, and sugarcane to illustrate their specialized root structures.
