Question
Chapter 34.1, Problem 3R
Summary Introduction
To review:
The difference between the apoplast and the symplast.
Introduction:
The plants take up water and minerals from the soil with the help of roots and root hairs. These water molecules are transported from the roots to the leaves through the xylem. The flow of water occurs mainly in two ways—the apoplastic pathway and the symplastic pathway.
