Question

The rapid type of water absorption is _____

• A. active absorption
• B. passive absorption
• C. active osmotic absorption
• D. Negative absorption

Answer 1

The correct option is B passive absorption

Passive type of water absorption is a method of water absorption in plants.

A tension is created in the xylem sap by the aerial part of the plant that is the leaves.

Due to transportation and negative pressure is observed in the xylem sap of the roots which causes passive water absorption. It is the fastest mode of water absorption.

So, the correct option is 'passive absorption'
