Solution

The correct option is B Vacuoles
Root hairs are the extensions of outer epidermal cells of the root. They contain large vacuoles having cell sap. The cell sap has a greater concentration of salts as compared to the surrounding subsoil water. Because of this property, water is drawn inside the root hair by a process of osmosis.
