Answer:

Root hairs

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the root hairs are part of root structure that are tubular and have lateral enlongations.

The root hairs increase the surface area of the root and allow for exchange.

They gave direct contact with the soil and then absorb water and nutrients to their increased surface area.
