Question

State whether the given statements are true (T) or false (F)
1. Root hair increase the surface area for absorption of wate
2. Transport of food takes place in the xylem of plants.
3. Water enters the root hair by osmosis.
4. Phloem consists of tracheids and vessels.
5. Root hair are multicellular and very delicate.
6. Iron is essential for chlorophyll formation.
Identify the error(s) in the given statements.​

Answer 1

Answer:

true

Plants absorb water and minerals salt from the soil with the help of root hairs. ... The concentration of the water molecules is lower in the root hair than in the soil. So the water moves into the root hairs through osmosis. Thus the cell of root hairs become turgid and exert pressure on the adjacent cells.

Answer 2

Answer:

1)Root hair increase the surface area for absorption of water

answer::::True

2) Transport of food takes place in the xylem of plants.

answer:::False

Its phloem

3)Water enters the root hair by osmosis.

answer:::True

4)Phloem consists of tracheids and vessels.

answer:::False

It's xylem

5)Root hair are multicellular and very delicate.

answer::the root hairs are unicellular, thin walled and un-branched structures and are short lived. However, there are exceptions such as the ones found in the aerial adventitious roots of Kalanchoe where these are multicellular.

6)Iron is essential for chlorophyll formation.

answer::True.
