How does most of the water needed by the plant get into its leaves?

• It enters through the roots and travels through the phloem

• It enters through the roots and travels through the xylem

• It is absorbed through the stomata on the leaf

• It is absorbed through the stomata on the roots

How does carbon dioxide get into the leaves of a plant?

• It's absorbed by the roots
• It's made in a chemical reaction in the stem
• It enters through the stomata
• It goes through the flowers
