Question

The process involved in the absorption of minerals by root plants​

Answer 1

Answer:

Mineral absorption

Explanation:

In plants, the entrance portal for mineral uptake is usually through the roots. Some mineral ions diffuse in-between the cells. ... Proton pump hydrolyzes adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to transport H+ ions out of cell; this sets up an electrochemical gradient that causes positive ions to flow into cells.

Answer 2

                                                      OR

When the concentration of mineral salts is higher in the outer solution than in the cell sap of the root cells, the mineral salts are absorbed according to the concentration gradient by simple process of diffusion. This is called as passive absorption because it does not require expenditure of metabolic energy.
