Can water move into plants by active transport?  What if there's more water in cells than soil, surely water can still enter, but by what process?

Thanks in advance!  ???

As I mentioned in the other thread, root hairs absorb water from the soil by osmosis. It is the mineral ions that are actively transported into the root..
