Which of the following statements is true? Water is the energy source for plant photosynthesis. Chlorophyll is contained in organelles called mitochondria. A by-product of photosynthesis is carbon dioxide. Roots have tiny root hairs that maximize the plant's ability to absorb water.

Respuesta :

TRUE. Roots have tiny root hairs that maximize the plant's ability to absorb water.

Root hairs are found in the exterior of the root called epidermis. They are long membranous extensions from epidermal cells. They increase the surface area of the root thereby maximizing its absorption of water and minerals.

Light is the energy source for plant photosynthesis, particularly sunlight.
Chlorophyll is contained in organelles called chloroplasts.
