Question
In higher plants, continuity of cytoplasm from one cell to its neighbouring cells is established through
apoplast
chloroplast
leucoplast
symplast
Solution
D.
symplast
Symplast refers to the interconnected protoplasts and their plasmodesmata which effectively result in the cells of different plant organs forming a continuum.
Apoplast is the space outside the plasma membrane within which material can diffuse freely.
Chloroplasts are small organelles inside the cells of plants and algae. They absorb light to make sugar in a process called photosynthesis.
Leucoplast is a colourless organelle found in plant cells, used for the storage of starch or oil.
