Which of the following statements correctly compares the functions of a plant's roots and stem?
The stem contains a high percentage of cells that provide structural support, unlike the roots.

The stem is the first part of the plant to emerge from a seed, followed by the roots.

The roots contain ground tissue that stores water and glucose, unlike the stem.

The roots contain stomata that allow for gas exchange, while stems do not.

Answered by maham237 @



The correct answer is The stem contains a high percentage of cells that provide structural support, unlike the roots.

Unlike the stem, the root is not that important for structural support but is extremely important for providing nutrients to the plant and for attaching the plant to a surface.
