Question

When a flower is placed in water, how do the nutrients in the water travel to the other parts of the plant?

The plant absorbs the nutrients through the sunlight. Flowers are nonvascular, so nutrients do not need to travel. The nutrients move from cell to cell up to the other parts of the flower. The nutrients travel to the other parts of the flower through the tubes of the vascular system

Answer 1

Stems carry water and nutrients taken up by the roots to the leaves. Then the food produced by the leaves moves to other parts of the plant. The cells that do this work are called the xylem cells. They move water.
