to suck up the water to store it
Phototropism is the type of growth that the desert cactus plant shows above ground. It grows in response to the high levels of heat and light in the desert. The above ground parts are called the shoots, and the below ground roots. The roots grow in response to the search for moisture in the soil.
Igneous rocks can be found both in the ground and above ground. Igneous rocks form from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava, which can happen below the Earth's surface (intrusive igneous rocks) or on the surface (extrusive igneous rocks).
Yes, igneous rocks can be formed both above and below the ground. When molten rock solidifies beneath the Earth's surface, it forms intrusive igneous rocks like granite. If molten rock reaches the Earth's surface and cools rapidly, it forms extrusive igneous rocks like basalt.
A cactus is deeply rooted and, even in a hot desert, there may be dampness below. Also, whenever it does rain, the cactus will store water in special cells that cause the cactus to swell. Another adaptation is that a cactus's covering is waxy to prevent water loss. While it may be hot during the day, temperatures can plummet at night.

Because the roots of the saguaro cactus are just below the surface.
Cacti have either a long tap root or fibrous roots just below the surface of the ground.
The ground temperature at 10 feet below the surface is typically around 50-60 degrees Fahrenheit.
The ground temperature at 20 feet below the surface is typically around 50-60 degrees Fahrenheit.
The ground temperature at 5 feet below the surface is typically more stable and closer to the average annual air temperature of the region.
Yes, cactus plants have roots.Specifically, a cactus plant needs roots to take in moisture and dissolved nutrients from the soil. It is upon this underground supply of moisture and dissolved nutrients that the entire plant depends for survival and growth. Additionally, roots keep the plant anchored in the ground or - in the case of epiphytic cactus plants - to the branches of trees.

Yes, groundwater is the water found beneath the Earth's surface in the pores and spaces of soil, sand, and rock formations. It is a valuable natural resource that is often used for drinking water, agriculture, and industrial purposes.

Rivers' surface located in deep valleys can be below of the ocean surface. Furthermore, there are underground rivers which certainly are below sea level, depending on how deep such rivers are placed below-ground.
