Correct Answer: both (1) and (2)


Solution : The correct option is both (1) and (2) .

Water may be moved in plants via two pathways: the apoplastic pathway and the symplastic pathway . Water moves through cell membranes and intercellular gaps via the apoplastic pathway. Diffusion, osmosis, and bulk flow are all ways for water to travel through the apoplast. Water moves through the cytoplasm of cells via the symplastic route. Diffusion and cytoplasmic streaming allow water to pass across the symplast.
