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 substance across the cell membrane against concentration gradient
III. In facilitated diffusion, special proteins helps hydrophilic substances to be transported across the membrane
IV. In diffusion, molecules move against concentration gradient in a random manner
V. Facilitated diffusion is faster than active transport

Unloading of minerals occur at

Solute potentials and pressure potentials of three solution $\mathrm{A, B}$ and $\mathrm{C}$ are as follows:

$\begin{aligned} & \Psi_{\mathrm{s}}(\mathrm{A})=-7 \text { bar, } \Psi_{\mathrm{s}}(\mathrm{B})=-11 \text { bar, } \Psi_{\mathrm{s}}(\mathrm{C})=-5 \text { bar } \\ & \Psi_{\mathrm{p}}(\mathrm{A})=5 \text { bar, } \Psi_{\mathrm{p}}(\mathrm{B})=8 \text { bar, } \Psi_{\mathrm{p}}(\mathrm{C})=3 \text { bar } \end{aligned}$

Translocation of organic materials in plants is explained

Root pressure is due to

How will you distinguish between the method of transport between xylem and phloem?

Osmotic pressure is highest in which of the following plant type?

The upward flow of water through the xylem in plants can achieve fairly high rates upto

Water in the soil available to plants is

Correct expression of the following is?

The direction of movement in phloem is …A… and that of xylem is …B… .
Choose the correct pair of options

Assertion: By lowering ${O_2}$
tension, water absorption is reduced.

Reason: Water absorption reduces due to the
accumulation of $C{O_2}$.

Water composition in a water-melon is approximately

Assertion: When the ambient temperature is
high and soil contains excess of water, the plants
tend to lose water in the form of droplets from
lenticels.

Reason: Root pressure regulates the rate of loss
of water form lenticels.

Choose the correct statement

A. Porins allow the entry of small proteins present in the membrane of mitochondria, chloroplast and bacteria

B. When a living cell is kept in hypertonic solution, water potential is equal to solute potential.

C. Carrier proteins will allow entry of all substances across the membrane, whereas pumps transport large molecuoles in a passive method

D. Bulk flow occurs by diffusion

Loss of liquid water by guttation occurs through
