Answer 2

Watermelon (Citrullus vulgaris Schrad.) is an annual herbaceous plant belonging to the Cucurbitaceae family.

The watermelon root system formation begins prior to emergence of cotyledons to the soil surface and reaches maximum extension by the time of flowering. Watermelon features a highly branching tap root extending up to 1 m deep into the soil. Some 15, occasionally more, lateral roots run from the main root. These, in turn, branch into smaller roots, resulting in an extensive root system which normally threads 7--10 m3 of soil 15 to 30 cm deep in the topsoil.
