What is a root apical meristem protected by?

A root apical meristem is protected by a root cap as it pushes through the abrasive soil. The root cap also secretes a polysaccharide slime that lubricates the soil around the tip of the root.


What force helps move water up through plants?

Capillary action, transpiration, and root pressure move water up through the plant.


What can change Earth's surface as a result of the force of gravity is it wind ice landslides or plant root?

Gravity is the driving force behind:- wind (convection currents can only happen in a gravity field) ice (Ice moves and erodes under the pull of the force of gravity) Landslides (here the motive power is the pull of gravity)


What happens to the root cells of a plant experiencing root burn?

Transpiration from the leaves is the major force driving the transfer of water into the cells of the root from the soil. The roots also use its high concentration of solutes to transfer water in by osmosis. If to much nutrients were added to the soil, that is increasing the solutes in the soil, the water would be transfered from the root cells to the soil. By this the roots may instead experience a water loss and the plant may die from dehydration.


Water enters a plant through which structures?

roots/root hairs.

What is the layer of tough protective cells that protects the delicate root tip as the root pushes it's way through the hard ground?

I think you mean the calyptra, or root-cap. However, rather than being a tough layer, it contains liquified cells that lubricate soil patricles.it is called a root cap.

What words have the root trud in it and means to push?

The word "intruder" contains the root "trud" and means someone who forcefully pushes into a place where they are not supposed to be.


How does root pressure assist in water uptake?

Transpiration. It's a bit like upthrust but for water traveling up through plants. The insides of the plant closes up so it can travel.
