Solution(By Examveda Team)

If the roots of the plant are removed and the plant is placed in water, then Passive absorption will continue to happen.
Passive transport is a type of membrane transport that does not require energy to move substances across cell membranes.
The rate of passive transport depends on the permeability of the cell membrane, which, in turn, depends on the organization and characteristics of the membrane lipids and proteins.
