Solution

The correct option is B

False


Mineral ions are diffuse out of the xylem vessels at the vein endings. But these mineral ions do not enter the cells passively, instead are actively absorbed by the surrounding cells. Passive transport is through facilitates diffusion that does not require energy and active transport uses ATP or other energy sources for uptake.
