Root hair absorbs water from soil through - rn (a)Osmosis (b)Active transport (c)Diffusion (d)Endocytosis rn
Answers
Correct answer: A). Osmosis
The roots of the plant are known to absorb water from the soil by the process of osmosis. Plants have root hairs that cover the large surface of the function to absorb a large amount of water for the plants.
These cells help to absorb water that is transported to the plants for varieties of purposes. Some amount of water is used for photosynthesis and some are used for the growth of leaves, bud, and stems of the plant.
Hence, the correct answer would be option A.
a. Osmosis
Roots acts as the lifeline for plants. As they reach deep into the soil to make a way to get of nutrients, minerals and water to the upper-part of the plant. They absorb their need by means of osmosis.
The principle is simple i.e. when the water content is high around the plant roots than they draw the water via roots where diffusion takes place between plant cells.
As there is already difference in pressure between cells that triggers to take water by the root cells to maintain a balanced pressure with the surroundings and thus the plant get its water.
