The pathways of water transport in which water moves through plasmodesmata is:
Correct answer: B. Symplast
- A. Apoplast
- B. Symplast
- C. Vacuolar
- D. Ascent of sap
Explanation
In plant cells, water can move from one cell to another through plasmodesmata, which are microscopic channels that connect plant cells. This movement of water through plasmodesmata is part of the symplastic pathway.

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.
