Question

The presence of vascular tissue allowed plants to ________. the presence of vascular tissue allowed plants to ________. transport nutrients and water from below-ground tissues and use them to protect developing embryos transport nutrients and water from below-ground tissues to above-ground tissues and grow taller absorb nutrients from the soil and form a symbiosis with fungi release toxins into the soil that reduced competition with other plants by poisoning nearby plants

Answer 1

Answer;

Transport nutrients and water from below-ground tissues to above-ground tissues and grow taller.

Explanation;

• Xylem and phloem form the vascular system of plants to transport water and other substances throughout the plant.
• Xylem transports and stores water and water-soluble nutrients in vascular plants.
• Phloem is responsible for transporting sugars, proteins, and other organic molecules in plants.
• Vascular plants are able to grow higher than other plants due to the rigidity of xylem cells, which support the plant.
