Answer 2

Answer:

Both Assertion and reason are false.

Explanation:

• In plants, water is transported through xylem. It transports water absorbed by the roots to the other parts of the plants. In addition to it, nutrients are also transported by the plants. Food in plants is transported by another vascular tissue called phloem.

• Sieve tubes are the living tissue present in phloem and they are elongated in shape. Their main function is to transport carbohydrates. They are connected with each other through the sieve plates.

So , assertion and reason both are false.
