Answer:

Root hair cells (black arrow pointing at one of the root hair cells) are single tubular root cells. Their distinctive lateral elongation increases the surface of exchange between the plant's root system and the soil. The main function of root hairs is the uptake of water and nutrients from the rhizosphere.
