cortex cells

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Water is passively transported into the roots and then into the xylem via cells of cortex. Plants absorb water from the soil by osmosis. Root hair cells are adapted for this by having a large surface area to speed up osmosis. The forces of cohesion and adhesion cause the water molecules to form a column in the xylem.
