What would happen if Casparian strips were not present and water and minerals could pass between endodermal cells of the plant root rather than through endodermal cells?
A) An increased concentration gradient of the minerals in the extracellular space of the vascular cylinder would be better maintained.
B) Too much energy would be needed to move the minerals between endodermal cells.
C) The minerals would enter the conduction vessels of the vascular cylinder much more rapidly.
D) Minerals would leak back out of the extracellular space of the vascular cylinder as fast as they were pumped into it.
E) Root hairs would lose their ability to take up minerals.
