Answer: The question is incomplete because Options are not given and here are the options gotten from another website.

A.The giant sequoia tree absorbs water through its roots to make its own matter.

B. The giant sequoia tree takes up carbon dioxide from the surroundings to make its own matter.

C. The giant sequoia tree transforms the matter in sugar and oxygen through photosynthesis to make its own matter.

D.The giant sequoia tree transforms the matter in water and carbon dioxide through photosynthesis to make its own matter.

The correct option is D.

D.The giant sequoia tree transforms the matter in water and carbon dioxide through photosynthesis to make its own matter.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because they get water and mineral nutrients like nitrogen e.t.c from the soil and CO2 from the atmosphere and use these to build their bodies through the process of photosynthesis. Many other plants also it more faster but sequoias engage in it for a very long time and, as they grow larger and larger, they photosynthesis more and more and that way they produce larger bodies.
