1. Choose the incorrect statements.

The active transport of mineral ions into the xylem increases pressure in xylem
Root pressure is responsible for moving the water in upward directions
Root pressure is responsible for moving solutes in upward direction
The active transport of mineral ions into the xylem increases pressure in phloem

2. Apoplast and symplast are the two types of movements seen in plants. Which of these is a difference between the two.

In apoplast water molecules move to the adjacent cells through the plasma membrane, cytoplasm and plasmodesmata
Apoplast involves the crossing of the cell membrane
Apoplast does not involve the crossing of the cell membrane
Apoplast involves the movement of water, particularly through the intercellular spaces and the walls of the cells
