Mosses are typically few centimeters tall while the flowering plants grow tall up to several meters. Which of the given adaptation allows plants to grow tall?
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Vascular tissues (xylem and phloem) transport water, minerals, and food efficiently throughout the plant and also provide support, allowing flowering plants to grow several meters tall. Mosses lack well-developed vascular tissues, so they remain small.
