Vedclass · Answer

(A, C) Statement $A$ is correct. The Casparian strip is a band of suberized cell wall material found in the endodermis of roots. It acts as a barrier,forcing water and solutes to pass through the plasma membrane,thereby allowing the plant to regulate the uptake of water and minerals.Statement $B$ is incorrect. Guttation occurs when there is high soil moisture and low transpiration,typically during high atmospheric humidity (often at night or early morning),not low humidity.Statement $C$ is correct. According to the active $K^{+}$ transport theory (Levitt's theory),the influx of $K^{+}$ ions into guard cells is the primary mechanism for stomatal opening.Statement $D$ is incorrect. In $CAM$ plants,stomata remain open at night to take in $CO_{2}$ and remain closed during the day to prevent water loss.

List $I$	List $II$
$A$. Cohesion	$I$. More attraction in liquid phase
$B$. Adhesion	$II$. Mutual attraction among water molecules
$C$. Surface tension	$III$. Water loss in liquid phase
$D$. Guttation	$IV$. Attraction towards polar surfaces

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
$I.$ Polarity	$p.$ Aquatic organisms can float
$II.$ Viscosity	$q.$ Lakes do not freeze in winter
$III.$ Latent heat	$r.$ Ascent of sap against gravity
$IV.$ Cohesive force	$s.$ Water is an efficient solvent
