Most of the movement in roots through apoplast is due to

(1) Cortical cells are loosely packed and hence no resistance to water movement

(2) Endodermal cells are loosely packed and hence no resistance to water movement

(3) Pericycle cells are loosely packed and hence no resistance to water movement

(4) Medullary cells are loosely packed and hence no resistance to water movement
