Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
The correct answer is:
C. 3


The tissue responsible for the transport of mineral salts and water in living plants is the xylem. Xylem conducts water and dissolved minerals from the roots to other parts of the plant.

Without seeing the exact figure, but based on the typical labelling conventions, option C (3) most likely corresponds to xylem.
