Solution
The correct option is D Both A and C
When the plant absorbs water by their own, it is called active absorption. It takes place when transpiration is low and amount of water in the soil is high. In this case root hairs play the major role in the absorption of water. Root pressure is the positive pressure that develops in the roots of plants by the active absorption of nutrients from the soil. It causes sap to rise through a plant stem to the leaves. Guttation is the exudation of xylem sap on the tips or edges of leaves of some vascular plant. According to the passive absorption, root hairs do not play any role in absorption. It takes place only when transpiration rate is high. So, the correct option is D.
