Root cell adaptation to prevent the cell solutes from equilibrating with the water in the soil include
I. semipermeable membranes that prevent the transfer of large molecules.
II. cell membranes that can prevent the transfer of water out of the cell.
III. cell membranes that can actively transport ions across the gradient.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Semipermeable membranes (I) prevent large molecules from passing, maintaining solute concentration. Active transport (III) allows cells to move ions against the gradient, maintaining internal solute levels.
