Explain how the shape of the root hair cell is adapted to help it do its job

Root hair cells are adapted for taking up more water and mineral ions. The way the are able to perform this is by having a bigger surface area to increase how fast the water and minerals absorb. Plus they contain a lot of mitochondria, which release the energy from glucose during respiration in order to provide the energy that is needed for active transport.
