Answer:

A. The plant would wilt.

Explanation:

In order to stay healthy and fresh, plants like every other living organism require certain substances. One of those substances is WATER, which the plant gets by absorption via the root hairs. The water circulates throughout the plant with the aid of a water-conducting vascular tissue called XYLEM. Without the xylem, water will not be transported throughout the plant.

The xylem tissue helps provide structural support to the plant as it helps the plant cell to be turgid. A non-functional xylem means the conduction of water is impossible, hence causing the plant cells to become flaccid and lose strength; a process called wiltering.

Anaplerotic reactions are chemical reactions that form intermediates that can be used in the further steps of metabolic pathways. These reactions are very important, because it is crucial for the cell to regulate concentrations of TCA cycle metabolites and intermediates.

The reaction in which pyruvate is converted to oxaloacetate is catalyzed by pyruvate carboxylase and it occurs in mitochondria. Also, pyruvate can be converted to L-malate, in a similar way.
