best_answer

Pathway of water movement in the root

Apoplast = Away from cell

Symplast = Via cytoplasm

The apoplast is the system of adjacent cell walls that is continuous throughout the plant, except at the Casparian strips of the endodermis in the roots.

Therefore, it is not aided by cytoplasmic streaming.

Hence the correct option is (b).
