Answer 2

The correct answer is xylem transports water and nutrients,and phloem transports water and sugar. They are found in plants and help to transport useful things all across the plant. Xylem transports it from the root to the leaves, while phloem transports it from leaves to the other parts of the plant. They are both involved in the process of transpiration.
