Solution
The correct option is A Xylem
Xylem tissue helps in the movement of water and minerals from the roots to the leaves of a plant. This tissue allows only the unidirectional movement of substances. Plants produce their food by photosynthesis, which requires water as a raw material. If xylem tissue is absent, water cannot reach the leaves. This will hamper the process of photosynthesis, causing the plant to die.
