In which plant part do water and nutrients enter?
A
stomata
B
xylem
C
flower
D
roots
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The plant root cells embedded within the casparian strip force all nutrient ions to enter directly through these living cells. The nutrient ions must move from the outside to the inside of the root.

Detailed explanation-2: -Stems carry water and nutrients taken up by the roots to the leaves. Then the food produced by the leaves moves to other parts of the plant. The cells that do this work are called the xylem cells. They move water.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plants typically take in nutrients through their roots. The roots absorb water and minerals from the soil and transport them to the rest of the plant. The roots can also absorb nutrients from the air and water. The process of roots taking in nutrients is called absorption.
