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. read more
Water is absorbed by the root hair cell by the preocess called, Osmosis. Osmosis is the phenomenon where solute moves from higher concentration to lower concentration against a semi-permeable membrane. read more
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. read more
