Detailed explanation-1: -Roots, the underground part of the plants, absorbs air from the air gaps/spaces found between the soil particles. Hence, absorbed oxygen through roots is utilized to liberate the energy that in the future, is used to transport salts and minerals from the soil.
Detailed explanation-2: -The correct option is A True. Transpiration: It is a biological process of water loss in the form of water vapor from the stomatal openings on the aerial parts of the plant.
Detailed explanation-3: -Plants absorb water and nutrients through the xylem: a tissue made up of thin tubes located just below the surface of the plant’s stems. The molecules in this tissue attract water molecules from the soil, so that the water is pulled upwards. This process is called capillary action.
