Cells found in the roots of the plant assist in the uptake and absorption of water and nutrients from the soil.

There are a number of different types of cells (tissues) involved in this process and not just a single cell type.

What changes have taken place in the basic plant cells to produce root cells?

Plant cells differentiate into root cells through a process called cell specialization. This involves changes in gene expression that lead to the development of specific structures and functions required for root growth and function. Root cells typically have specialized features such as root hairs for absorption and a protective root cap for root tip protection.

What is the function of the growth tissue that remains just behind the root tip in plant development?

The growth tissue behind the root tip in plants is called the meristem. Its function is to continuously produce new cells for root growth and development.


How would you know if a cell was a plant cell and not a root cell?

Root cells are plant cells, but they do not contain chloroplasts like leaf cells.


Does a root cell have a chloroplast?

yes, roots are apart of a plant. All plant cells have chloroplasts and therefore root cells have chloroplasts.


How is a pericycle adapted to its function?

The pericycle is adapted to its function of producing lateral roots by containing undifferentiated cells capable of cell division. These cells can differentiate into different types of root tissues to facilitate root growth. Additionally, the pericycle can respond to signals from the plant to initiate lateral root formation in specific locations.


What is the difference between a plant's root cell and a leaf cell?

1) Root hair cells don't have chloroplasts as they are under the ground,there is no access of light to them and they do not photosynthesize.Leaf cells do have chloroplasts. 2) Root hair cells have along narrow extension to absorb minerals,ions and water.Leaf cells d not have this extension as this is not their function.
