Plant transport carbon dioxide through diffusion and not in transportation of mineral salt

Chidubem D.

The answer is A

Chidubem D.

That wrong diffusion is the process in which plant absorbs carbon IV oxide. It does not involve the transportation of water. The Answer Is A Water and mineral salts first enter through the cell wall and cell membrane of the root hair cell by osmosis. It is in the Tutorial on Plant System under Uptake of Water and Minerals in Roots. Pls Make amendment. The answer is A

diffusion, process resulting from random motion of molecules by which there is a net flow of matter from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration.eg Carbon (IV) Oxide

In plants and animals, mineral absorption, also called mineral uptake is the way in which minerals enter the cellular material, typically following the same pathway as water. In plants, the entrance portal for mineral uptake is usually through the roots by a process of diffusion and active transport.
