Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following is a mechanism of nutrient uptake in plant roots?
  • Step 1: Understand that plants need nutrients from the soil to grow.
  • Step 2: Learn that there are different ways plants can take in these nutrients.
  • Step 3: Recognize that 'facilitated diffusion' is a way nutrients move into plant roots without using energy.
  • Step 4: Know that 'endocytosis' is when a plant cell wraps around a nutrient and brings it inside.
  • Step 5: Remember that 'active transport' is when plants use energy to move nutrients into their roots against a concentration gradient.
