    Assertion  The transport of water is more efficient in angiosperm because their xylem possess vessels. Reson (R) Conduction of water by vessel  element is an passive process thus no energy is needed in the process.

    A)  Both A and R true and R is correct explanation

    B)  Both A and R are true, but R is not correct explanation of A                                 

    C)  A is true, but R is false

    D)  Both A and R are false

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    In angiosperm xylem consists of vessels and trachieds. A linked row of vessel elements form a vessel. Conduction of water through those element does not use active energy, Thus water transport takes place by passive process. In addition to conduction cells xylem also contain fibres and parenchyma cells.
