True or False. Root hairs increase absorption by increasing the surface area of a root.?

Simple answer: yes.
It's a common theme in all aspects of the universe: the most efficient structure is that which maximizes its SURFACE AREA: VOLUME ratio.
Plants and trees do this by having hairs on their roots, greatly increasing their surface area while minimally increasing volume.
Side note, that's how the human intestine works too: it's full of small hairs called villi, which increase the surface area:volume ratio, therefore absorbing nutrients more efficiently.

Is Chilling a liquid will increase evaporation at the surface true or false?
It is not true.
If you wish to increase the rate of a chemical reaction you might try increasing the concentration of the reactants. (True) or (False)?
(True)
When you climb a mountain the air pressure increase true or false?
False, air pressure goes down as altitude increases. Air acts like water in the sense that they are both fluids. If you are on the surface of the earth you are in the bottom of the fluid just like water the pressure is higher on the bottom. So when you increase altitude you are reaching the top of the fluid therefore decreasing pressure.
Depletion of the ozone layer allow more UV-A rays to reach earth's surface causing damage to plants and animals. True or false?
False. Depletion of the ozone layer allows an increase in UV-B, which damages plants and animals.
In a flexible containerwhen the temperature of a gas increases the volume of the gas will increase true or false?
true and false it will increase up to the limit that the container can flex then there will be a pressure increase
True or false chilling a liquid will increase evaporation at the surface?
false
Is Chilling a liquid will increase evaporation at the surface true or false?
It is not true.
Will chilling a liquid will increase the evaporation at the surface?
false
By increasing your speed you also increase force of impact. True or False?
True
Earth's radius and surface area are slowly increasing to accommodate the new oceanic crust being formed at mid-oceanic ridges - true or false?
False.
If you wish to increase the rate of a chemical reaction you might try increasing the concentration of the reactants. (True) or (False)?
(True)
Temperature and pressure increase with depth inside Earth - True or False?
True. Temperature and pressure both increase with increasing depth within the Earth.
Earth's radius and surface area are slowly increasing to accommodate the new oceanic crust being formed at mid-ocean ridges. True or False?
False.
Is you true the magnetic field around an electromagnet can be made stronger by increasing current or decreasing the number of coils around the iron core?
No, you is false. Increasing current does it, but the number of turns in the coilalso must increase if you want to increase the magnetic field that way.
When temperature increases the kinetic energy of the particlles decreases true or false?
No. In gases, 'Absolute temperature' is proportionally related to the kinetic energy of the particles. Therefore, increase in temperature results in increase in the kinetic energy of the particles.
When you climb a mountain the air pressure increase true or false?
False, air pressure goes down as altitude increases. Air acts like water in the sense that they are both fluids. If you are on the surface of the earth you are in the bottom of the fluid just like water the pressure is higher on the bottom. So when you increase altitude you are reaching the top of the fluid therefore decreasing pressure.
Is it true or false that the frequencies of radiation increase as the wavelengths increase?
FALSE
