Question

please expain this paragraph. here it is written that the inside of a root has a higher concentration than the soil solution so how it satisfy osmosis .osmosis only takes place from higher concentration to lower concentration. so how root has higher concentration​

Answer 1

osmosis is passage of water from origin of higher water concentration to lower water concentration since the water inside the root is less than water present in the soil thus plant root will gain water through osmosis

Answer 2

The absorption of water by plants is essential for various metabolic activities. Terrestrial plants get their water supply from soil which serves as the source of water and [minerals]. The way in which water from soil enters roots, particularly to the root xylem, is called "mechanism of water absorption". Both active and passive absorption have been proposed for mechanism of water absorption.This process is known as Conduction
