Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

The three parts of vascular plants are leaves, stem, and roots.

Leaves are the site of photosynthesis, and they produce sugars. Stem is the support structure that holds the leaves, so that they are exposed to sunlight. The stem also conducts water and nutrients to all parts of the plant. Roots anchor the plant, and absorb minerals and water from the soil.

Conclusion

The three parts of vascular plants are leaves – which perform photosynthesis, stem – which supports the plant and conducts nutrients and water, and roots – which anchor the plant and absorb nutrients and minerals.
