Question

D. The function of absorption of water and minerals from soil in plants is performed by​

Answer 1

Answer:

Roots of the plant

Explanation:

osmosis

Plants absorb water from the soil by osmosis. They absorb mineral ions by active transport, against the concentration gradient. Root hair cells are adapted for taking up water and mineral ions by having a large surface area to increase the rate of absorption.

Water is found in the spaces between the soil particles. Water and mineral salts first enter through the cell wall and cell membrane of the root hair cell by osmosis.They function solely to take up water and mineral salts.
