through which vascular tissue do water and nutrients get transported to reach the leaves during transpiration?\ncuticle\nparenchyma\nxylem\nphloem
Answer
Brief Explanations:
- The cuticle is a waxy layer on the leaf surface, not a vascular tissue.
- Parenchyma is a general plant tissue type, not specifically for transporting water and nutrients.
- Xylem is the vascular tissue that transports water and minerals from the roots to the leaves.
- Phloem transports organic compounds (like sugars), not water and nutrients in the context of transpiration - related upward transport.
Answer:
xylem
