Do you understand transportation in plants? Take this active transport quiz, and see how much you know about it. Plants transport their nutrients through either osmosis or diffusion. We covered these two processes in class today, and the teacher is to give you a test on them in the next class. Take up the review questions before your next biology class. All the best in the exam and as you take this test. You can share the quiz with others also and challenge them for scores.
