Answer 1

The correct option is B

III, IV & V

Water helps a plant by transporting important nutrients through the plant. Nutrients are drawn from the soil and used by the plant. Without enough water in the cells, the plants droop, so water helps a plant stand. Water carries the dissolved sugar and other nutrients through the plant. It supports leaves and shoots by keeping the cells rigid. It cools the leaves by evaporation.
