the little white thing is called the taproot and yes, it is the first root and should be planted facing down towards the soil/water. after a few days the first green will appear as a stem with two little oval-shaped leaves called cotyledon growing towards the sky. Sometimes the seed will get stuck on the cotyledon leaves - you can leave it there since it will fall off on its own. See the pix - my fave is the one with the seed attached.
