ANSWER:

The hyphae of the fungi "absorb nutrients" from the environment. Then transport these to other parts of the body of the fungi.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Hyphae contain the cell sap or the cytoplasm of the fungi. It also contains nuclei which has genetic information about the fungi.
  • Hyphae can be found either in the roots or phylum of the vascular plants and therefore help vascular plants to get water and nutrients from the soil.
