A proper system of transportation is essential for plants, especially when distances between soil-contacting roots and chlorophyll-containing leaves are large. Without an efficient transport system, essential raw materials and energy may not be adequately distributed throughout the plant.

Roots are responsible for absorbing nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and minerals from the soil, providing essential building blocks for plant growth and development.

Plants absorb essential raw materials such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and minerals from the soil through their roots.

The lymphatic system plays a crucial role in immune function, fat absorption, and fluid balance in the body. It helps to remove waste, toxins, and excess fluid from tissues, and transports immune cells to fight infection and disease.

Blood plasma is the fluid component of blood that contains proteins and other substances, while lymph is similar to plasma but lacks the red blood cells and is colorless with fewer proteins.
