Answer 1

QUESTION:

Under which circumstances do plants take up water by osmosis?

ANSWER:

The conditions necessary for occurring osmosis in plants:–

• Presence of a concentration gradient.
• The solution separated by a semi permieable membrane should have different concentration.
• Presence of a semi permeable membrane.

Answer 2

The roots of a plant are the plants lifeline. They reach out into the soil to establish an avenue for the transport of nutrients and water to the rest of the plant. The roots absorb water through osmosis. If the water concentration outside of the plant roots is greater than that of the water concentration in the roots osmosis occurs.
