Question

how are root hairs structurally adapted for absorption of water?

Answer 1

Plants absorb water from the soil by osmosis. Root hair cells are adapted for this by having a large surface area to speed up osmosis. The absorbed water is transported through the roots to the rest of the plant where it is used for different purposes: It is a reactant used in photosynthesis.

Answer 2

Root hairs absorb minerals,nutrients from the soil which are essential for plant growth
