Leaves are composed of vascular tissue that brings water in so that ground tissue can conduct photosynthesis. Based on this information, what level of organization describes leaves?
A
Tissue
B
organ
C
organ system
D
organism
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Explanation: an organ is a group of different tissue connected together to perform a main function and this applies to roots where we have the epidermal layer, the cortex and the vascular tissues, each of which is a tissue.

Detailed explanation-2: -How are the circulatory system in animals and the vascular system in plants similar to each other? Both systems transport food and water to cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Dermal tissue covers and protects the plant, and controls gas exchange and water absorption (in roots). Dermal tissue of the stems and leaves is covered by a waxy cuticle that prevents evaporative water loss.

Detailed explanation-4: -How does the vascular system enable leaves and roots to function together in supporting growth and development of the whole plant? The vascular tissue system connects leaves and roots, allowing sugars to move from leaves to roots in the phloem and allowing water and minerals to move to the leaves in the xylem.
