Which is not a characteristic of a plant's vascular tissue?A.It transports egg and sperm cells for reproduction.B.It supports the plant's stems and leaves.C.It positions the plant's leaves closer to the sun.D.It transports water and food inside the plant.

The development of vascular tissue in plants is an adaptation to larger size in plants and life on land. Which of the following BEST describes the specialized cells of vascular tissue and their functions?Select one:a.Dermal - absorb water and gases from the soil and air; cortex - develops a central core to support the plantb.Xylem - cells that are empty except for the water and soluble minerals they transport; phloem - ground tissue that stores food made during photosynthesisc.Xylem - thick-walled cells that conduct water and soluble minerals from roots to stems and leaves; phloem - cells with modified organelles that conduct sugars and other nutrients throughout the plantd.Root hairs - projections of root cells that increase the surface area of roots; phloem - cells that expand and contract to respond to sunlight

Which type of tissue in plants is responsible for the transportation of water and nutrients?a) Meristematic tissueb) Epidermal tissuec) Vascular tissued) Parenchyma tissue
