Root hair absorbs water from soil througt |
| Answer» Plants\xa0absorb water\xa0from the\xa0soil\xa0by osmosis.\xa0Root hair\xa0cells are adapted for this by having a large surface area to speed up osmosis. Another adaptation that they have is\xa0root hair\xa0cells have a large permanent vacuole.\xa0Plants\xa0absorb water\xa0from the\xa0soil by\xa0osmosis. They\xa0absorb\xa0mineral ions\xa0by\xa0active transport, against the concentration gradient.\xa0Root hair\xa0cells are adapted for taking up\xa0water\xa0and mineral ions\xa0by\xa0having a large surface area\xa0to\xa0increase the rate of\xa0absorption. | |
