Answer Key / Explanation : (d) -

(d)

Transport of minerals through xylem from the soil to plant takes place by active transport. This active transport need energy to move molecules against the concentration gradient. This is facilitated with membrane proteins due to less concentration of minerals ions in the soil. minerals are transported into root cells by active transport
