Choose true and false statements from the following and select the correct option from the set $(A-D)$ given below:
$I.$ Diffusion is an important process of transport in plants since it is the only means for gaseous movement within the plant body.
$II.$ In active transport,pumps are proteins that use energy to carry substances across the cell membrane against the concentration gradient.
$III.$ In facilitated diffusion,special proteins help hydrophilic substances to be transported across the membrane.
$IV.$ In diffusion,molecules move against the concentration gradient in a random manner.
$V.$ Facilitated diffusion is faster than active transport.

  • A
    $I, II, III$ are true,$IV$ and $V$ are false.
  • B
    $I, II, III$ are true,while $IV$ and $V$ are false.
  • C
    $IV$ and $V$ are true,while $I, II$ and $III$ are false.
  • D
    Only $II, III, IV$ are true while $I$ and $V$ are false.

Osmosis involves

Study the following statements and choose the correct option$(s)$ from the codes below:
$I$. Root pressure provides a light push in the overall process of water transport.
$II$. Root pressure causes the flow of water faster through xylem than it can be lost by transpiration.
$III$. In symplast pathway,water moves exclusively through the cell wall and intercellular spaces.
$IV$. Guttation is a cause of transpiration pull.
$V$. Most plants fulfill their water requirement by transpiration pull.

Differentiate between apoplast and symplast pathways of water movement. Which of these would need active transport?
