Answer:

Hey mate here is your answer.....

In plant anatomy, the Casparian strip is a band of cell wall material deposited in the radial and transverse walls of the endodermis, and is chemically different from the rest of the cell wall - the cell wall being made of lignin

[1]

and without suberin - whereas the Casparian strip is made of suberin and sometimes lignin..

hope it's helpful for you...

Statement : Apoplastic movement of Water occurs exclusively through the cell wall and intercellular spaces .it is continuous except at casparian strips..

EXPLANATION::

✳Plants absorb most of the water through the roots from the soil.

✳Once water is absorbed by root hairs it can follow two distinct pathways.

1.APOPLASTIC PATHWAY.

2.SYMPLASTIC PATHWAY.

APOPLASTIC PATHWAY::

➡In this pathway water passes from root hairs to xylem Through inter cellular spaces and walls .

➡Without crossing any membrane or cytoplasm.

➡This pathway provides least resistance to the movement of water .

➡This pathway is interuppted by the presence of casparian strips as it is suberin deposited layer .so Then symplast occurs .

SYMPLASTIC PATHWAY::

➡This pathway is formed by the system of interconnected protoplasts of different cells .

➡ Hence movement is relatively slow

➡This pathway involves crossing of membranes.

➡So we can say that up to the before of endodermis symplast occurs after it follows symplast for crossing membranes .
