What pressure is help water from soil enters into the root hairs owing to?

The pressure that helps water from the soil enter root hairs is called root pressure. This pressure is generated by the active transport of ions into the root cells, creating a concentration gradient that drives water movement by osmosis.

What causes root pressure and what is the function of root pressure for the plant?

Root pressure is caused by the active transport of minerals and nutrients from the soil into the root cells, leading to an accumulation of solutes that creates osmotic pressure. This pressure helps to push water upward through the xylem, aiding in the movement of nutrients and maintaining turgor pressure in plant cells. Root pressure is particularly important during periods of low transpiration, such as at night, ensuring that essential water and nutrients are available for growth and metabolic functions.
