Correct Answer: Xylem


Solution : The correct option is the Xylem .

Xylem's primary job is to transfer water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant, including the leaves. Root pressure, capillary action, and the transpiration-cohesion-tension mechanism all contribute to this process. Xylem vessels and tracheids are specialised cells that are in charge of water transport upward.
