Question

Water and minerals are transported from the roots to the rest of the plant through the phloem.

Answer 1

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Xylem transports water, minerals, and nutrients from the soil to all the plant parts. There are two types of "transport" tissues in plants- xylem and phloem. Water and solutes are transported by the xylem from the roots to the leaves, and food is transported from the leaves to the rest of the plant by the phloem.
