In plants, active absorption usually does NOT occur when ________.
- A stomata are open
- B stomata are closed
- C transpiration stops
- D it is night time
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) stomata are open
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Active absorption in plants, which requires energy (ATP), typically occurs when transpiration is low, such as at night or when stomata are closed. When stomata are open (usually during the day), transpiration is high, and passive absorption via transpiration pull dominates.
