Solution

The correct option is C Impermeable
Casparian strips are water proof bands, which run around the cell wall of endodermal cells in plants. Casparian strips are water proof due to deposition of suberin in their cell wall. Hence, casparian strips are impermeable to water. Therefore, option A is correct.
