Question

Plasmodesmata take part in

• A. Synchronous mitotic divisions
• B. Cytoplasmic streaming
• C. Movement of substances between cells
• D. Locomotion in unicellular organisms

Answer 1

The correct option is C Movement of substances between cells

The plasmodesmata consist of pores, or channels, lying between individual plant cells, and connect the symplastic space in the plant. They can also be termed as "bridges" between two plant cells. The plasmodesmata separate the outer cell membranes of the plant cells. A plasmodesma (plural plasmodesmata, singular plasmodesma) is a channel through the cell wall that allows molecules and substances to move back and forth as needed.

So, the correct answer is 'C'.
