Oh, dude, like totally! Root hair cells have mitochondria because they need energy to absorb water and minerals from the soil. It's like their little powerhouses, keeping them fueled up and ready to do their job. So yeah, mitochondria are definitely hanging out in those root hair cells, doing their thing.
What else can I help you with?
Does a root hair cell contain nucleus?
Yes, root hair cells do contain a nucleus. The nucleus is the control center of the cell where genetic material is stored and controls cell activities.
What organlles would be found in a root cell?
A root cell would contain organelles such as nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and vacuoles. These organelles play various roles in the growth, metabolism, and storage functions of the root cell.
How are root hair cells specialised?
it is layered and it grows, it helps the hair cell when providing a greater surface area for water absorption
How many mitochondria does a plant root hair cell have?
plant cells can make there own food because they have chloroplasts, but also have mitochondria, while animal cells only have mitochondria which doesn't make it's own food, because of the chloroplasts plants cells don't need as much mitochondria. Mitochondria produces energy. Animal cells have more mitochondria because they need more energy. Plants don't move, so they don't need a lot of energy.
How is the root hair cell adapted to do their job?
Root hair cells have long, thin projections that increase surface area for absorption of water and nutrients. They have thin cell walls to facilitate osmosis and have many mitochondria to provide energy for active transport. Additionally, they are located near the root tip where soil nutrients are most abundant.
Does a root hair cell contain nucleus?
Yes, root hair cells do contain a nucleus. The nucleus is the control center of the cell where genetic material is stored and controls cell activities.

A root cell would contain organelles such as nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and vacuoles. These organelles play various roles in the growth, metabolism, and storage functions of the root cell.
Does the root hair cell have a cell wall?
yes. A root hair cell has a cell wall.
Is a root hair a cell?
a root hair cell is the base of the plant
How are root hair cells specialised?
it is layered and it grows, it helps the hair cell when providing a greater surface area for water absorption
Dose a root hair cell have a cell membrane?
yes, all root hair cells have a cell membrane
How many mitochondria does a plant root hair cell have?
plant cells can make there own food because they have chloroplasts, but also have mitochondria, while animal cells only have mitochondria which doesn't make it's own food, because of the chloroplasts plants cells don't need as much mitochondria. Mitochondria produces energy. Animal cells have more mitochondria because they need more energy. Plants don't move, so they don't need a lot of energy.
What is the function of a root hair in a root hair cell?
a nucleus alwys controls whatever the cell does.
What is the size of the root hair cell?
The root hair single cell is 80 - 1500um long. Its diameter is 5-17um. The root hair cell life is 2-3 weeks.
Where is a root hair cell?
On the tips of the root
How is the root hair cell adapted to do their job?
Root hair cells have long, thin projections that increase surface area for absorption of water and nutrients. They have thin cell walls to facilitate osmosis and have many mitochondria to provide energy for active transport. Additionally, they are located near the root tip where soil nutrients are most abundant.
Why is a root cell is plant cell?
Because plants have roots. So technically the root hair cell is a specialized plant cell, which has a long protrusion to increase its surface area for more efficient absorption of water and more mitochondria to produce energy for active transport of mineral salts from the soil.
