Is the drug ssri an antagonist or agonist?

The SSRI class is neither antagonist nor agonist. They are re-uptake inhibitors. To the extent of my knowledge (I am NOT a doctor), a serotonin: agonist enhances production of sertonin at the source neuron, antagonists blocks binding of serotonin to the target neuron effectively blinding it, re-uptake inhibitors block the destruction of serotonin, effectively letting it act for longer.


Why respiration rates may increase in root hair cell during the uptake of minerals ions?

Respiration rates may increase in root hair cells during the uptake of mineral ions because the minerals are taken up into the plant against the concentration gradient. This requires energy to use active transport, which then increases the rate of respiration.

How the presence of root hair cells on root enables the efficient absorption of water and minerals?

They develop a cytoplasmic hair-like elongation which increases its surface area for more absorption. It also has a large number of mitochondria which provides energy needed for the active uptake of minerals.
