Nutrient Acquisition
Plants utilize xylem and phloem to transport water, nutrients, and minerals throughout their structures. Xylem moves water and mineral salts from roots to leaves, while phloem transports sugars and amino acids from leaves to the rest of the plant. Nutrient acquisition involves passive and active tra
