The presence of vascular tissue allowed plants to . the presence of vascular tissue allowed plants to . transport nutrients and water from below-ground tissues and use them to protect developing embryos transport nutrients and water from below-ground tissues to above-ground tissues and grow taller absorb nutrients from the soil and form a symbiosis with fungi release toxins into the soil that reduced competition with other plants by poisoning nearby plants

Xylem and phloem form the vascular system of plants to transport water and other substances throughout the plant.
Xylem transports and stores water and water-soluble nutrients in vascular plants.
Phloem is responsible for transporting sugars, proteins, and other organic molecules in plants.
Vascular plants are able to grow higher than other plants due to the rigidity of xylem cells, which support the plant.

The correct statements that best completes the question "The presence of vascular tissue allowed plants to ________. the presence of vascular tissue allowed plants to ________." are:

Transport nutrients and water from below-ground tissues to above-ground tissues

Grow taller

The vascular system is in charge of the movement of water and other nutrients throughout the entire plant. The parts of the vascular system in charge of this process are the xylem and the phloem.

As a result of this, we can see that there is a specialized function for each of them which are:

The xylem moves water and other soluble items to the plant
The phloem moves sugars and organic molecules to the parts of the plant
