Where is a root hair cell found?
Root-hair cells are found just behind hairs of creatures.
What is the difference between a leaf cell and root hair cell?
Leaves' cells are made to absorb sunlight and produce sugar for the plant. Roots' cells are made to absorb water.
How many root caps does a plant have?
thousands Depending on the size of the plant the root hair cells are present in one plant. This number may vary from 100 to several thousands.
What is the difference between xylem vessel and root hair cell?
a xylem vessel is a part of a plant and a root hair cell is a root of the plant
Does being turgid provide support for root hair cell?
Yes, when a cell is turgid it means that it is full of solvent, or in this case water, and provides for support. Plant cells have central vacuoles that are meant to store water and provide for the plant's support -- when a plant is droopy, it means that the plant isn't receiving enough water and its cells' central vacuoles are deprived of water, therefore unable to provide structural support. I can assume that this is the same for root hair cells. The opposite of a cell being turgid (meaning hard and full) is a cell being flaccid (empty, weak, flingy). The latter would not provide ANY support for the root hair cells, so my final answer is yes, being turgid does provide support for root hair cells.
How many cells are there in a root hair?
there are about thousands of root hairs
What do you call root hair cells working together?
root hair tissue
Where is root hair cells found?

What cells are found on roots?

What are the parts of the plant system?
Root cap, meristematic cells zone, root hair zone, mature tissue system etc.
Why do the root cells look different from the leaf cells of a plant?
Root cells do not have chlorophyll that gives the green color to the leaf. Root cells have hair extensions called root hairs. Leaves do not have these extensions. Root cells do not have pores. Leaves have pores that are guarded by two cells that are responsible for increasing and decreasing the size of the pores.
How would you expect the root hair cells from a desert plant to differ from those of a tropical rain forest plant?
i have to ask my teacher
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.
