Refer section 11.3.1, NCERT where it is stated that most of the water flow in the roots occurs via the apoplast. Why is this so?
1. Endodermis has suberized casparian strips
2. Root cortex cell lack plasmodesmata
3. Cortical cells are loosely packed
4. Root cortex is poorly organized

In sec 11.4, NCERT, it is mentioned that transpiration is affected by the canopy structure. This means that transpirational loss is lower in shaded leaves compared to sun exposed leaves higher in canopy. What would not be a reason for this?
1. Lower stomatal conductance
2. Lower leaf temperature
3. Lower air humidity
4. Lower air turbulence

In section 11.1.2, NCERT states that a concentration gradient needs to be present in spite of the fact that facilitated diffusion is facilitated by a carrier. Why is it so?
1. These protein carriers have ATPase activity.
2. These protein carriers can not move in the membrane.
3. These protein carriers can not establish concentration gradients.
4. These protein carriers can provide only symport with the use of external energy.
