What statement about water transport in roots is false? a. in the apoplastic transport route water travels through cells and pits b. the water transport through cell walls is faster than the one through cells and pits, because there is less resistance to water flow through. (apoplastic transport is faster than symplastic transport) (apoplastic transport travels through , symplastic transport travels through cells) c. the Casparian strip blocks the water transport through cell walls d. the Casparian strip is located inside the cortex and is part of the endodermis e. the Casparian strip only lets symplastic water pass through

Which statement about mycorrhiza is false? a. Mycorrhiza is an association between a fungus and a plant b. The fungus fixes atmospheric nitrogen and makes it available to the plant.
