Question

what is the role of xylem in plants? absorbing sunlight transporting nutrients transporting water to leaves

Explanation:

Xylem is a vascular tissue in plants. Its main function is to transport water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the leaves. This process is crucial for photosynthesis as water is a key reactant. Absorbing sunlight is mainly the role of chloroplasts in leaf cells. Transporting nutrients (in the form of sucrose etc.) is more associated with phloem.
