Solution

The correct options are
B xylem
C phloem
Xylem and phloem are the names for the special pipe-like system that transports water and food, respectively, to all parts of a plant. The xylem of a plant is the system of cellular tubes that circulates water and dissolved minerals. Phloem carries the sugar that's made during photosynthesis from the leaves to the storage areas like seeds and fruits. It also carries sugar to the actively growing parts of the plant.
