Question : How does most of the water moves within the root ?

Answer»

Solution :Most of the water is transported to ROOT by apoplast PATHWAY. Because cortical cells POSSESS flaccid arrangement so there is no obstruction in transport of water. It is a mass flow.
This mass flow OCCURS due to cohesive FORCE and adhesive force.
More over symplast pathway is also associated in transport of water (e.g. in endodermis of root).
