how is it done photosynthesis?
water+minerals+C02+sunlight -> organic matter+ O2
how is it done nutrition?
- absorption of water and minerals
- transportation of xylem sap to chlorophyl area
- photosynthesis
- Pholem sap is transported to the rest of the plant
- Cell respiration
- Elimination of waste substances
