← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome results when Casparian strip dysfunction occurs?
A)Uncontrolled apoplastic water movement✓
B)Enhanced root pressure development
C)Increased xylem vessel diameter
D)Accelerated stomatal closure signaling
💡 Explanation
Uncontrolled apoplastic water movement happens because the Casparian strip regulates mineral and water uptake via selective ion transport, therefore water bypasses cellular control rather than being filtered, because the strip is not functioning correctly.
