The correct answer is C. Passive transport refers to the movement of substances such as ions across the cell membrane without the use of energy. Examples of such movement is diffusion, facilitated diffusion, osmosis and filtration. The opposite of passive transport is active transport and this needs energy to occur. Examples of active transport are proton pumps, exocytosis and endocytosis.
Answer:
Water and nutrient uptake.
Explanation:
The root system of a plant functions as conducting tissue for water and mineral nutrients that are essential for metabolic activities of the plant.
<em>Extensive surface area of roots is an adaptation associated with efficient water and mineral nutrient uptake because this will increase the surface area of roots in contact with the soil.</em>
