Solution
The correct option is C Root hairs
The root hairs are long and thin so they can penetrate between soil particles, and they have a large surface area for absorption of water. Roots act as the passive organ for absorption of water. Water passes from the soil water to the root hair cell’s cytoplasm by osmosis due to the concentration gradient. and rise by the capillary action.So the correct answer is 'Root hairs'.
