Cohesion, adhesion and surface tension provide water with a high tensile strength that means that it:
1. is capable of rising in a thin tube
2. has a low specific heat
3. resists a pulling force
4. is a universal polar solvent

Consider the following:
I. Creation of pull for absorption and transport in plants
II. Supply of water for photosynthesis
III. Transport of minerals from leaves to all parts of a plant
IV. Cooling of leaf surface
V. Maintenance of shape and structure of plants by keeping the cells turgid
Functions of transpiration include:
1. All
2. All but III
3. All but V
4. All but III and IV

The evolution of C4 photosynthetic system is probably one of the strategies for:
| 1. | maximizing the availability of oxygen in spite of continuing high amount of water loss |
| 2. | maximizing availability of water in spite of continuing high amount of carbon dioxide loss |
| 3. | reducing the amount of water loss but leads to decreased availability of carbon dioxide |
| 4. | maximizing the availability of carbon dioxide while minimizing water loss |

Unlike water, all minerals cannot be passively absorbed by the roots. This is due to:
I. Minerals are present in the soil as charged particles
II. Concentration of minerals in soil is generally less than the concentration of minerals in roots
The correct statements are:
1. Only I
2. Only II
3. Both 1 & II are incorrect
4. Both 1 & II are correct

An analysis of xylem exudates will show that most of the nitrogen is carried as:
1. Inorganic ions
2. Ammonia dissolved in water

Phloem sap is mainly:
1. Glucose and Water
2. Hormones and Amino acids
3. Water and Sucrose
4. Amino acids and water
Unlike xylem, the movement of sap in phloem is:
1. essentially unidirectional
2. from a sink to a source
3. independent of movement of water
4. in any direction from source to a sink
