a material that supports a plant and conducts nutrients
A
phloem
B
spore
C
vascular tissue
D
xylem
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Xylem is one of the conducting tissues that is responsible for the transport of nutrients and water from roots to the aerial parts of the plant such as stem and leaves. It is made up of specialised water-conducting cells that are known as tracheary elements.

Detailed explanation-2: -The vascular system is comprised of two main types of tissue: the xylem and the phloem. The xylem distributes water and dissolved minerals upward through the plant, from the roots to the leaves. The phloem carries food downward from the leaves to the roots.

Detailed explanation-3: -Vascular tissue is comprised of the xylem and the phloem, the main transport systems of plants. They typically occur together in vascular bundles in all plant organs, traversing roots, stems, and leaves.

Detailed explanation-4: -The two primary vascular tissues are xylem, which transports water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the leaves, and phloem, which conducts food from the leaves to all parts of the plant.

Detailed explanation-5: -Vascular tissue is made of two specialized conducting tissues: xylem and phloem. Xylem tissue transports water and nutrients from the roots to different parts of the plant, and also plays a role in structural support in the stem.
