Identify the factor that will inhibit the absorption of water by roots

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

Water is absorbed along with mineral solutes by the root hairs, purely by diffusion, thus if soil solution is highly concentrated than diffusion of water inside the root cell cannot occur. Highly concentrated soil solution inhibits the absorption of water from soil solution. Rate of absorption is directly proportional to available soil water.
