Statement $I$: Minerals are absorbed by the plants from soil and surroundings.
Statement $II$: Absorption of minerals is dependent on water absorption.
In light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below.
A
Both statement $I$ and statement $II$ are correct.
B
Both statement $I$ and statement $II$ are incorrect.
C
Statement $I$ is correct and statement $II$ is incorrect.
D
Statement $I$ is incorrect and statement $II$ is correct.
Solution
(C) Statement $I$ is correct because plants absorb essential minerals from the soil through their roots.
Statement $II$ is incorrect because the absorption of minerals and water are two distinct processes.
While both processes occur in the roots,mineral absorption is an active process involving energy $(ATP)$ and specific transport proteins,whereas water absorption is primarily a passive process driven by osmotic gradients.
Therefore,mineral absorption is independent of water absorption.
