Vedclass · Answer

(C) The $symplast$ pathway involves the movement of water and solutes through the interconnected protoplasts of plant cells. This movement occurs from one living cell to another via $plasmodesmata$. The $transmembrane$ pathway is also considered a part of the $symplast$ system as it involves crossing cell membranes. In contrast,the $apoplast$ pathway involves the movement of water through the non-living parts of the plant,such as cell walls and intercellular spaces. Therefore,movement along the intercellular space is characteristic of the $apoplast$ pathway,not the $symplast$ pathway.
