The given diagram shows the transverse section of a stem.With reference to osmoregulation the plant that has shown anatomical feature is
Correct answer: B. Water lily
- A. Sunflower plant
- B. Water lily
- C. Cactus
- D. Pinus
Explanation
Aerenchyma is a specialized plant tissue characterized by large air spaces within its structure, primarily found in waterlogged plants e.g water lily. So option B is correct. Sunflower, cactus and pinus doesn't grow in such environment so A,C and D are incorrect.

About Plant Nutrition and Transport
Plants require macronutrients and micronutrients for growth, and mineral deficiencies produce recognizable symptoms. Transport involves water and minerals through xylem by transpiration pull, cohesion and adhesion, while phloem translocates sugars from sources to sinks. Root pressure and transpiration are distinct mechanisms.
