Question

Some insects chew through roots in order to reduce a plant’s ability to absorb water. Which of these functions would be most immediately affected by a reduction in water uptake by roots?

Answer 1

photosynthesis

Step-by-step explanation:

Invasive plant species affect the interactions of living and nonliving components of an ecosystem, so the removal of invasive plants is often necessary. The goal of most most plant-control methods is to disrupt or inhibit the functions of different plant systems. For example, insects can be used to chew through roots in order to reduce a plants ability to absorb water.
