The correct pair of tropisms that describe the deep roots and the tendrils wrapping around objects is hydrotropism and thigmotropism.

  • Hydrotropism refers to the growth of plant roots toward moisture.
  • Thigmotropism refers to the growth response of a plant to physical touch or stimuli, such as tendrils wrapping around objects for support.

So the answer is:

hydrotropism and thigmotropism.
