Munch hypothesis is based on

  • Translocation of food due to Turgor Pressure (TP) gradient and imbibition force

  • Translocation of food due to Turgor Pressure (TP) gradient

  • Translocation of food due to imbition force

  • None of the above

Solution

B.

Translocation of food due to Turgor Pressure (TP) gradient

Munch hypothesis is based on the movement of phloem sap along a turgor pressure gradient. The mass flow of organic solutes takes place from the site of higher concentration, (source) to the site of lower concentration (sink).
