How Has A Root Hair Cell Adapted To Its Job?

A root hair cells job is to provide water and nutrition for a plant. Root hair cells have to absorb large amounts of water. The process by which root cells take in water is osmosis. In order to take in large amounts of water, a cell needs a large surface area. The root hair cells provide this needed extra surface area to absorb large amounts of water. The cytoplasm has no chloroplasts because a root cell is under ground where there is no light.

The cell is elongated to increase surface area for absorption of water and other materials which are important to the plant
