Question

In the image below, the path A represents Symplastic movement and path B represents Apoplastic movement of water.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A

True

Symplastic movement of water requires the movement of water through the cell. In this path, the water enters the cell and travels via plasmodesmata. In apoplastic movement the water does not enter the cell and the movement happens in the intercellular spaces and between the cell wall and the cell membrane.
