Which of these is NOT an interaction between a plant's root and shoot systems?

The roots absorb water from the soll to prevent leaves from drying up.

The phloem transports sugars from the leaves to the root nodules for storage.

Nutrients are absorbed from the soil and moved to the stems.

The stomata open to allow carbon dioxide to enter the leaves.

Answer:

The stomata open to allow carbon dioxide to enter the leaves.

Explanation:

Higher plants are made up of two major system parts namely: shoot system and root system. The shoot system constitutes every part of the plant above the ground i.e leaves, fruits, stem etc. while the root system constitutes the part below ground i.e the roots. The shoot system and root system, however, interacts in several ways to ensure that the plant functions optimally. The ways they interact include:

- The roots (root system) absorb water from the soil, which is transported upwards to prevent leaves (shoot system) from drying up.

- The phloem, which is a conducting tissue, transports sugars (product of photosynthesis) from the leaves (shoot system) to the root nodules (root system) for storage.

- Nutrients are absorbed from the soil by the roots (root system) and moved to the stems (shoot system).

Note that, although it is true that "stomata in the leaves open to allow carbon dioxide to enter the leaves", there is no connection between the shoot and root system.

Answer:

the first choice is D) The stomanta open to allow carbon dioxide to enter the leaves.
