Question

root hair are adapted to absorption and xylem to support relate their function to their structure

Answer 1

A root hair cell has a large surface area that is ideal for absorbing nutrients, and its sap has a higher salt concentration than the surrounding soil water. It has a semipermeable membrane that permits minerals and water molecules to enter but not to leave. Since it is responsible for providing nutrition and water to the plant, it possesses a tough wall that allows it to go deep underground.

Answer 2

Root hairs absorb water from the soil which then is transported to the leaves through xylem where photosynthesis takes place.
