Solution

The correct option is C xylem vessels
Amino acids are transported between different organs through xylem vessels. This redistribution of nitrogen and carbon requires the activity of amino acid transporters in the plasma membrane. In addition, amino acids can be taken up directly by the roots. Amino acid transport has been well characterized in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and functional complementation has served as an excellent tool for identifying and characterizing amino acid transporters from plants.
Thus, the correct answer is 'Xylem vessels.'
