How do roots help plants in 3 different ways?

The root hair cells have a large surface area that helps in efficiently absorbing water from the soil through osmosis. The large surface also helps in efficiently absorbing minerals during active uptake. The root hairs secrete acid that helps to exchange and solubilize minerals into an ionic form, making the ions easier to absorb.

Where is food and minerals absorb a?

Food and minerals are primarily absorbed in the small intestine. The small intestine consists of three parts: the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum, where nutrients and minerals are absorbed through the intestinal walls into the bloodstream. The large intestine also absorbs some water and electrolytes but is mainly involved in the formation and excretion of waste.


Andesite has large crystals surrounded by fine grained minerals. which term describes the texture of andesite?

The texture of andesite, characterized by large crystals set in a fine-grained matrix, is called porphyritic. This texture indicates that the rock underwent two stages of cooling: the larger crystals formed from slow cooling beneath the surface, while the fine-grained minerals crystallized quickly during subsequent rapid cooling. This combination gives andesite its distinctive appearance.
