Answer:

The plants gets the water and nutrients from the soil through the roots.Plants take carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through the leaves.

Explanation:Plants need this carbon dioxide to make food. Transpiration - this exchange of water for carbon dioxide - only occurs during the day when there is sunlight. ... The plants contain a lot of water because all night long water has been entering through the stem and being pulled into the leaves where it can't evaporate.
