Differentiate between the following:
(a) Diffusion and Osmosis
(b) Transpiration and Evaporation
(c) Osmotic Pressure and Osmotic Potential
(d) Imbibition and Diffusion
(e) Apoplast and Symplast pathways of movement of water in plants.
(f) Guttation and Transpiration.

Explanation

(a) Diffusion and osmosis. Refer Table 4 of Chapter-11, page 10.
(b) Transpiration and evaporation. Refer Table 10 of Chapter -11, page 27.
(c) Osmotic pressure and osmotic potential. Refer Table 5 of Chapter - 11, page 13.
(d) Imbibition and diffusion. Refer Table 7 of Chapter-11, 16.
(e) Apoplast and symplast pathways of absorption of water in plants. Refer Table 8 of Chapter- 11, page 18.
(f) Guttation and transpiration. Refer Table 12 of Chapter - 11, page 28.
