In the 5—7 million years that the hominid lineage has been diverging from its common ancestor with the great apes, dozens of hominid species have arisen, often with several species coexisting in time and space. As recently as 30,000 years ago, Homo sapiens coexisted with Homo neanderthalensis. Both species had large brains and advanced intellects. The fact that these traits were common to both species is most easily explained by which of the following?

Phloem loading in the apoplastic pathway thought to mediate the transport of sucrose from the apoplast into the sieve element– companion cell complex. Which of the following  are involved in such sucrose transporting by apoplast?
a) Sucrose is at a higher concentration in the sieve element–companion cell complex indicates that sucrose is actively transported against its chemical-potential gradient
b) Sugars transport from the apoplast into the sieve elements and companion cells energy driven process
c) Phloem loading in the apoplastic pathway involves a sucrose–H+ symporter
d) the route of phloem loading is−mesophyll cells→ bundle sheath cells→ phloem parenchyma cell→ ordinary companion cell→ sieve elements
Which of the following is incorrect?
