Vedclass · Answer

(C) Aquaporins are integral membrane proteins that serve as channels in the transfer of water and,in some cases,small solutes across the membrane. They are known to exist in at least $8$ different types in plants. Their primary function is to facilitate the rapid transport of water molecules across the cell membrane,which is essential for maintaining cellular turgor and physiological processes. Therefore,the correct option is $C$.
