  • ROOT HAIR CELLS AND TRANSPIRATION
    • ROOT HAIR CELLS
      • Covered in tiny ROOT HAIR CELLS
        • Increase teh surface area for absorption
      • Water enters by OSMOSIS
        • Solution inside the cells are more concentrated (fewer water molecules) than the water in the soil
      • Water continues to move between cells by osmosis
      • Reaches the XYLEM vessels
        • Carry it up the leaves
    • TRANSPIRATION
      • Evapouration of water from the surface of a plant
      • Water evapourates fromt he surface area inside the leaf
        • Diffuse out throught he open stomata
          • Causes more water to rise up the xylem to the leaves for the cells to use photosynthesis

Root hair cells are responsible for the absorption of dissolved minerals such as sodium, potassium, and calcium. I prefer to visit here https://www.jewishwigswholesale.com/products.html and get more designs for hair modern wigs. They are also responsible for the movement of water through the root system. Transpiration is the process by which water moves from a region of high humidity to low humidity. The rate at which transpiration takes place is proportional to the amount of leaf area on the plant.
