Answer 1

Answer: Xylem carries water from the roots to the leaves.

Explanation:

The above option is a missing option to your question and the correct one.

The Xylem is a kind of vascular tissue that plants have which helps in the transportation of water. It gets water from the roots and transports it to the leaves. It also transports dissolved minerals in the water to those leaves as well.

Phloem tissue transports food from the leaves where it is made to the roots.
