Question

How are plasmodesmata related to the symplast?

Answer 1

The symplast of a plant is the inner side of the plasma membrane in which water and low-molecular-weight solutes can freely diffuse. Symplastcells have more than one nucleus. Theplasmodesmata allow the direct flow of small molecules such as sugars, amino acids, and ions between cells
