                    Passive absorption of minerals depends on:

    A)                                                                                                            temperature                     

    B)                 temperature and metabolic inhibitor

    C)                 metabolic inhibitor                                         

    D)                 humidity

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                                              Metabolic inhibitors affect active absorption. Humidity does not affect abosorption of minerals as much as temperature.                 The movement of mineral ions into the root cells by the process of simple diffusion is called as passive absorption. This is a spontaneous process and does not require energy.
