I forgot what an organelle is but the vascular tissue in the stem transports water, minerals, and sugars.
Xylem is a tissue that transports water and minerals from the stem to the leaves .
Hope this helps

Answer:

vesicle

Step-by-step explanation:

The vesicle is a cellular structure, it presents itself as a membranous bag inside the cell that has the main function of storing and transporting different types of substances, inside the cell.

Among these substances stored and transported by the vesicle, we can mention the different types of cellular products and residues of some enzymatic or metabolic process. Vesicles can also digest substances and work in conjunction with other organelles.

Regarding the question above, we can say that the vesicle is the organelle that helps in the transport of fertilizers from the soil to the leaves of the plant. This if we compare the cell to a plant.
