Solution
The correct option is A True
Answer: True.
- The conduction of absorbed minerals in a plant occurs by xylem against the concentration gradient.
- Unlike water, all minerals cannot be passively absorbed by the roots.
- Therefore, most minerals must enter the root by active absorption.
- After the ions have reached xylem through active or passive uptake, or a combination of the two, these ions are transported to different parts of the plant.
