It has a long narrow tail which increases surface area to volume ratio for the absorption of water and minerals.
It is living cell that enables to perform active transport because we know only living cells respire,and this respiration give energy for active transport.
It has the water gradient which helps diffusion and osmosis.

What is the relationship between cell structure and function of a root hair cell?
nothing muahhahaa
How is a root hair cell adapted to perform its function?
They have root cells inside their roots to absorb water they are tough to stay in the ground. 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. Root cells, have a large surface area over which absorption of minerals and water can occur.
How does the shape of the root hair cell help to do its job?
The shape helps the root hair cell to move around the body, the nucleus helps the root hair cell, the root hair cell is about the same shape as a nerve cell
Does a root hair cell contain nucleus?
yes root hair cell do have a nucleus.
What is the Size of a root hair cell?
The root hair single cell is 80 - 1500um long. Its diameter is 5-17um. The root hair cell life is 2-3 weeks.
How is a root hair adapted for its function?
it is layered and it grows, it helps the hair cell when providing a greater surface area for water absorption
What is the function of a root hair in a root hair cell?
a nucleus alwys controls whatever the cell does.
Function of root hair cell?
To absorb water and nutrients from the soil.
What is the function of root hair cell?
The function of the root hair cell in plant is to absorb water and mineral salts.
What is special about root hair cell?
to perform a specific function
What is special about a root hair cell?
to perform a specific function
What is the relationship between cell structure and function of a root hair cell?

How is a plant root adapted for taking in water and mineral ions?
roots take in water from the root hair cell. they are adapted to this because the soil contains water and that is where they get their first batch of water

What is the function of cytoplasm in a root hair cell?
a nucleus alwys controls whatever the cell does.
Does the root hair cell have a cell wall?
yes. A root hair cell has a cell wall.
Is a root hair a cell?
a root hair cell is the base of the plant
