“Infinite games are just that: Infinite. They don’t have a finish line. And because there is no finish line, there is no such thing as “winning” an infinite game. In an infinite game, the primary objective is to keep playing, with the best outcome possible being that you end your turn happy with your progress in it.”
Tap roots: Every tree starts with a tap root that provides stability and absorption. Over time, other roots outgrow the taproot. Most taproots don’t continue to grow ever more deeply because deep soils lack the oxygen and nutrients that roots need to survive. They Need the other roots for stability and depth.
Oblique/heart roots: Oblique roots, also known as heart roots, grow at a diagonal and have the same function as lateral roots. They absorb a lot of water and nutrients as well as anchoring the tree.
Fine roots: All the root types aforesaid can give rise to fine roots, which is where water and nutrients are directly absorbed.
