At first glance, without knowing exactly why it was asked, this easily appears to be somewhat of a Don’t Forget To Hydrate And Mind Your Own Business Shirt or insincere question. So why would our questioner be at all concerned which plants have tap roots as opposed to fibrous roots? Mere curiosity? Nope! Google Search quickly answers that faster than waiting for Quora answers. An inquisitive youngster looking for a broad scope in answers? Possibly so. Perhaps a gardener, land or homeowner, greenhouse or hydroponic grower, looking for sturdy trees or suitable vegetable plants, etc? But I …(and many others who have concern for Mother Nature, healthy soils, and healthy human and animal populations) know that living roots in the soil (especially long taproots that mine deep into the subsoil for minerals) are essential to MOST ALL life on earth. Taproots and fibrous roots are essential to not only human and animal life, but also to large varieties of tiny microscopic creatures that occupy healthy soils, plant roots, and healthy animal and human organs and surfaces. Humans and animals are totally dependent upon these beneficial microbes like bacteria and yeast that occupy the gut and alimentary canal to break down and digest the food we eat.
