Question

    Which type of water absorption relies on the osmotic

    gradient, with root cells actively participating in the process by spending metabolic energy?
    A Active Absorption Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Passive Absorption Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Osmotic Absorption Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Plasmolysis Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Active absorption involves the osmotic gradient, with root cells playing an active role in water absorption through metabolic energy expenditure.
