The diffusion of ions along with water also takes place by mass flow system along the ________ path?
Correct answer: B. Apoplast
- A. Tonoplast
- B. Apoplast
- C. Symplast
- D. Vacuolar
Explanation
Mass flow through cell walls and intercellular spaces occurs along the apoplast pathway, which does not require water to cross plasma membranes at every cell. Students may choose c because ions eventually enter the symplast for selective control, but that is not the pathway of the initial wall-based mass flow.
