Given below are two statements in relation to the limitations of the capillarity theory of water transport in plants.
Statement $I$: Xylem, i.e., the capillarity tube, must be with closed end walls and not hollow.
Statement $II$: The capillarity tube, i.e., xylem, is not in direct contact with soil water and contains a barrier of root cells between the xylem and soil water.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

Which of the following statements are correct regarding the factors affecting the absorption of water by plants?
$(i)$ In plants,the rate of water absorption is minimum at a soil temperature of $20^{\circ}C$ to $30^{\circ}C$.
(ii) The presence of capillary water is essential in the soil.
(iii) Poorly aerated soil shows a poor absorption rate.
(iv) $A$ low transpiration rate accelerates the rate of absorption of water in irrigated soil.
$(v)$ $A$ high concentration of solutes in soil water reduces the rate of absorption of water.

$A.$ Most researchers agree that water is mainly 'pulled' upward through the plant, where transpiration is the driving force.
$B.$ Less than one percent of water reaching the leaves is used in plant growth and photosynthesis.
$C.$ Cobalt chloride paper turns blue on absorbing water.
