BIOXI11: TRANSPORT IN PLANTS

336240 Imbibition is always accompanied by swelling or increase in the volume of the imbibant. However, the increase in the volume of the imbibant is

1 More than the volume of water imbibed
2 Same as the volume of the water imbibed
3 Less than the volume of the water imbibed
4 Depend upon the type of imbibant

336241 Which of the following is correct about imbibition?

1 Imbibition pressure is produced by the swelling of wood and in turn used by prehistoric man to split rocks and boulders
2 It requires affinity between the absorbent and the liquid.
3 It requires \(\psi \mathrm{w}\) gradient between the absorbent and the liquid imbibed.
4 All of them
