Vedclass · Answer

(A) Active absorption is an energy-dependent process ($ATP$ is consumed) that occurs when the rate of transpiration is low. When stomata are open,the rate of transpiration is high,which creates a strong transpiration pull. This pull facilitates passive absorption of water,which is the primary mechanism for water uptake during the day. Therefore,active absorption is generally not the dominant process when stomata are open.

$(1)$ High viscosity	$(a)$ Temperature of the environment does not affect water
$(2)$ Cohesion	$(b)$ Acts as an efficient solvent
$(3)$ High specific heat	$(c)$ Absorption of mechanical shocks
$(4)$ Polarity	$(d)$ Necessary for the ascent of sap in plants

In plants,active absorption usually does $NOT$ occur when . . . . . . .
