Question
Chapter 29, Problem 8TYU
Summary Introduction
To draw:
The symplastic and apoplastic pathway of water transport in plants and label the routes.
Introduction:
When water transport occurs through cytoplasm and vacuoles of the cell; the route which water have opted is termed as symplastic pathway, whereas, when the water moves through the non-living parts of plant; the route of water transport is termed as apoplastic pathway. Casparian strips which are made up of an impermeable substance play a key role for water in switching to symplastic pathway from apoplastic pathway.

- Which of the following statements are true for root endodermis?I. Endodermal cells constitute the innermost layer of root cortex and surrond the vascular cylinder (xylem and phloem). II. Endodermal wall is covered with waxy layer of casparian strip which blocks apoplastic transfer of minerals.III. Due to presence of casparian strip, water and minerals can only eneter the vascular cylinder if they will be able to cross the plasma membrane of an endodermal cell.arrow_forwardDescribe how roots absorb positively charged mineral ions by the process of cation exchange.arrow_forwardYour scheduled patrolling of com field has collected various leaves samples with symptoms stated as below.

O Nutrient anions (sulfate, phosphate, nitrate, etc) are replaced by Cl on soil particles. Released nutrients become available in the soil water. Anions exchange places with cations during anion exchange, which confuses roots and turns HATS into LATS, after which the endodermis synthesizes a caspian endothelium O Cation exchange facilitates the breaking of covalent bonds between nutrients and soil particles O Protons replace nutrient cations on soil particlesarrow_forwardThe cross-section of a woody root is shown in Figure 3.
