Root Hair Adaptations Cells Shape Increasess Surface Area

Root hair cells are adapted with a shape maximizing the surface area to volume ratio for quicker osmosis and do not have chloroplasts.

Root hair cells have a shape that increases their surface area to volume ratio for faster osmosis and lack chloroplasts.
