Solution

The correct option is D Increased
Roots absorp water from soil through diffusion process. Diffusion occurs in the presence of concentration gradient. When amount of solute is less in soil solution then amount of water is more in soil solution. In this condition more amount of water will diffuse from soil to roots that's why water absorption is increased.
