What else can I help you with?
How many cells are there in a root hair?
there are about thousands of root hairs
Where hair formed?
Hair is made of dead cells filled with keratin. The root or bulb is burried in the follicle as more cells are added to the root the hair gets longer.

Function of root hair cell?
To absorb water and nutrients from the soil.
What is the adaptation of the hair root cell?
To speed up osmosis root hair cells have a large surface area. Root hair cells absorb water and minerals from surrounding soil.
What do you call root hair cells working together?
A group of root hair cells working together is often referred to as a root hair zone or a root hair system. These cells play a critical role in absorbing water and nutrients from the soil to support plant growth and development.
Why water moves from the soil to the root hair cellexplain?
Water moves from the soil to the root hair cells through a process called osmosis, where water molecules move from an area of high water potential (soil) to an area of lower water potential (root hair cells). The presence of a concentration gradient between the soil and root cells and the selective permeability of the cell membrane facilitate this movement of water.
Do root hair cells divide?
Root hair cells do not divide. Instead, they are specialized extensions of root epidermal cells that develop from the root's growing region, known as the root tip. These cells increase the surface area for water and nutrient absorption. Once formed, root hair cells remain in place to perform their function rather than undergoing division.
What cells are found on roots?
Root cells include root hairs for water and nutrient absorption, epidermal cells for protection, cortex cells for storage, endodermal cells for regulating nutrient uptake, and vascular tissue cells for transport.
What is on the root that actually absorbs water and minerals?
Root hair cells absorb ions (including water molecules),
What is the job of the root hair cell?
Root hair cell are dermal cells found on the roots of many vascular plants.Their job is to provide a greater surface area for water absorption.As transpiration pulls water up to the leaves, root hair cells have to absorb large amounts of water. The process by which root dermal cells take in water is osmosis. In order to diffuse large amounts of water, a cell obviously needs a large surface area. The root hair cells provide this needed extra surface area to absorb large amounts of water.
What is the difference in root hair cells and leaf cells?
root hair cells dont have chloroplasts
