A
Water and Nutrients
B
Soil and Sun
C
Warmth and Water
D
Soil and Water
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The plants absorb water from the soil with the help of root hair through osmosis. The diffusion of water molecules through a semi-permeable membrane is called osmosis. Root hair absorbs water from soil through osmosis. Water will be absorbed by root hairs by osmosis as the environment in the soil is hypotonic.

Detailed explanation-2: -Root hairs help plants to absorb water from the soil.

Detailed explanation-3: -Essentially all of the water used by land plants is absorbed from the soil by roots. A root system consists of a complex network of individual roots that vary in age along their length. Roots grow from their tips and initially produce thin and non-woody fine roots.

Detailed explanation-4: -Vegetable plant roots absorb nutrients through two distinctly different sequential processes. First, the nutrients must move from the soil to the surface of the plant roots. Second, the nutrients must be able to cross from the outside to the inside of the plant roots.
