Question

• A. Supplying them water and minerals.
• B. Supplying them air.
• C. Preparing food in their plants.
• D. Helping them move from one place to another.

Answer 1

The correct option is A Supplying them water and minerals.

The roots of the plants are held firmly in the soil. Different types of soil have different texture and particles. They have different levels of minerals and nutrients embedded in them. Roots absorb water from the soil by the process of osmosis. Along with water, mineral nutrients also enter the soil.

So, we can say that option A "Supplying them water and minerals" is the correct answer.
