Are tap roots the same as root hairs?
No, tap roots and root hairs are not the same. Tap roots are the main root of a plant that grows straight down, while root hairs are tiny, hair-like extensions that grow from the surface of roots and are responsible for nutrient absorption.
What region is responsible for the root hairs growth?
Root hairs grow longer as they age (similar to how we grow taller as we age). Since the older (and therefore longer) root hairs are at the distal end of the root cap (towards the base of the root), it creates a tapering appearance. In other words, as you move from the base of the root towards the root cap, the root hairs become shorter since they are younger.
What are the tiny hairlike structures that grow near the tip of the roots?
Root hairs are the tiny hairlike structures that grow near the tip of roots. They increase the surface area of the root for absorption of water and nutrients from the soil. Root hairs also help anchor the plant in the soil.

Which section of the root has root hairs?
The region of the root where root hairs are located is called the root hair zone. It is found just behind the root tip in the zone of maturation where new cells differentiate into root hairs to absorb water and nutrients from the soil.
Why does the root need root hairs for the uptake of water and mineral?
because absorption of water takes place by root hairs in the root
