What kind of plant reproduction occurs when a root stem or leaf producers a new plant?
its a type of propigation either the leaf, root, or steam. how this works is they take a peice of the root leaf and or stem into the soil with a piece of the plant sticking out of the soil. what happens is an the plant grows from these they will star growing roots and root hairs(which absorbs water and nutrients)
What plants roots take in water?
plant roots take in water by the hairs that the root has.
How is the leaf dependent on the root and the stem?
First the root take up the water and minerals in the soil and the stem transports it to the leaf
How do root hair cells improve the uptake of water?
generally, root hairs are not the ones who absorb water, it is still a function of the root. the function of the root hair is to increase the absorptive capacity of the root by creating capillary. CABaLLO: Root hair cells are cells which have tubular extensions that arise from epidermal cells and greatly increase the rate at which water is absorbed by the plant. They provide a large surface area over which water can be absorbed. They also have a very thin membrane - and since diffusion is only effective over short distances this also helps absorption of water. The root hair cells also pump inorganic ions such as Na+ into the cell by active transport, creating a water potential gradient down which water can move by osmosis from the soil (where there is a higher water potential) to the root cell where there is a lower water potential.
How is a root hair cell adapted to perform its function?
They have root cells inside their roots to absorb water they are tough to stay in the ground. A root hair cells job is to provide water and nutrition for a plant. Root hair cells have to absorb large amounts of water. The process by which root cells take in water is osmosis. In order to take in large amounts of water, a cell needs a large surface area. Root cells, have a large surface area over which absorption of minerals and water can occur.
What tissue that plants use to take water from soil?
Root hairs and or symbiotic mycorrhiza.
What is tissues that plants use to take water from soil?
Root hairs and or symbiotic mycorrhiza.
How are root hairs adapted to take up maximum water?
Root hairs increase the surface area of the root. This allows for more contact between water and root.

What plant roots take in?
plant roots take in water by the hairs that the root has.
What plants roots take in water?
plant roots take in water by the hairs that the root has.
How do root hairs enable a plant to take in more water?
Root hairs greatly increase the surface area available to the root for water absorption. The greater the surface area, the more water that can be reached at one time.
What part of the plants take the nutrients from the soil?
Root
Do roots take in the water needed by the plants and also mineral salts?
Yes roots roots do both,root hairs absorb minerals dissolved in water .Water uptake from the soil by root cells is passive, and also follows osmotic gradients caused by the mineral nutrients
Do plants take in oxygen from soil?
The primary way plants use oxygen is through their root cells. In order for a plant to take up water and nutrients from the soil, it must continually grow new root hairs. The cells that make up these hairs are living cells that do not carry out photosynthesis. They are similar to the cells of animals in that they require oxygen and give off carbon dioxide as they burn carbohydrates to obtain the energy they need to function. This is why you can "drown" a house plant by watering it too much. If the soil gets too saturated with water, the plants root cells can't get enough oxygen from the air.
What structure increases a roots surface area for allowing it to take in more water?
Root Hairs
