Help name plant part, please
I'm stuck trying to name a plant part and hope someone will help with
the answer. On a floating plant, what are those fine, hair-like
structures on the roots that absorb nutrients from the water? I know
it's a part of the root and has a specific name but I can't think of
it.
The only word that comes to mind is cilia, but those are the hairs in
my nose, so that can't be it....lol. (not that I actually have *too*
much long, dark black hair in my nose).
Thanks in advance!
