Roots are provided with a large surface area through their extensive branching and the development of root hairs. The branching allows roots to spread out and explore a greater volume of soil, while root hairs, which are tiny extensions of root cells, increase the surface area for water and nutrient absorption. Together, these adaptations enhance the plant's ability to efficiently take up essential resources from the soil.
What else can I help you with?
Why do leaves have a large surface area?
Leaves are broad, thin and flat to provide a large surface area, to absorb sunlight for photosynthesis. :)
What are the characteristics of respiratory surface?
large area
How do you calculate the curved surface area?
The question does not specify of what object the curved surface area is required. Without this information then a meaningful answer cannot be provided.
What organelle has a large amount of surface area?
The Alveoli
How does surface area to volume ratio affects an organism?
If the surface area of the organism is small, then there is no problem with getting all the oxygen needed. If the surface area of the organism is large, therefore a special respiratory surface is needed. An example is lungs, gills. The ratio of surface area to volume in a small organism is greater than the ratio in a large organism.
Are roots adapted to take in water because they have a small surface area?
No.Plant roots have large surface area,roots have root hairs to increase the surface area so that large amounts of water can be absorbed easily.
What enters th plant through the large surface area provided by the?
Roothairs.
Why do roots spread out and get thinner?
they spread out and cover a large surface area which helps the roots take in water from the soil more quickly.
What Gives roots a large surface area to absorb minerals?
Root hairs are responsible for increasing the surface area of roots, allowing for more efficient absorption of minerals and water from the soil. These tiny, finger-like extensions of root cells greatly enhance the root system's capacity to take in nutrients.
What do root hair cells do?
grow lol what he said.
What part of the plant soaks up water from the soil?
The roots, in particular the xylem and phloem by capillary action
Why are multiple small roots with fine root hairs more efficient than one large root?
there is more surface area for the root to absorb water
What provides a large surface area for gas exchange?
Your lungs provide a very large surface area for gas exchange.
Why are the roots of a cactus so long?
To give them a large surface area to soak up water, because water is scarce, they need to take up as much as they possibly can.
Do stilts have a large surface area?
No
How some of the cells in the roots and leaves are adapted to their jobs?
The cells in the roots and leaves are thin, which makes it easier for water to diffuse across into the plant. Another adaptation is their large surface area, which enables the plant to maximize the intake of water and minerals .
Why do leaves have a large surface area?
Leaves are broad, thin and flat to provide a large surface area, to absorb sunlight for photosynthesis. :)
