Q.9 Identify and define ‘A’ and ‘B’ in relation to uptake of water by the root :
[Figure: Transverse section of a part of root from root hair to the central xylem. Path A starts inside the root hair and runs across the cortex through the cells (cytoplasm) to the xylem. Path B starts at an epidermal cell and runs in a zig-zag manner along the cell walls of the cortex up to the endodermis and xylem.]
