Solution
The correct option is B Exosmosis Exosmosis is the process of flow of water from inside to outside of any material while endosmosis is the process of flow of water from outside to inside a material through a semi-permeable membrane.
If excessive chemical fertilizers are given to plants then plant sap will have more chemical concentration and due to exosmosis water will come out of the plant and eventually plant will die.
