Answer:
Transport between roots and leaves. Long-distance movement of water and nutrients is mainly through the xylem tracheids and vessels and the phloem sieve elements of the vascular system (Figure 4). The xylem tracheids and vessels, which are dead cells, can be envisioned as a series of water-filled tubes.

Explanation:
In plants, minerals and water are transported through the xylem cells from soil to the leaves. ... The root cells obtain ions from the soil which creates a difference in the concentration of ions between the roots and soil. Thus, there is a continuous water movement into the xylem.
