How do flowers leaves and stems helps plants meet their basic needs?

How does the water needed to carry out out photosynthesis gets to leaves?
through the vascular bundles

How does food and water get transfered in plants?
Water and food substances or nutrients are transported throughout the plant through the vascular bundle formed from the cambium. Xylem transports water from the roots to the leaves. The water it transports is needed by the plant in photosynthesis. After photosynthesis, sugar and other nutrients are produced and they are transported throughout the plant by the phloem. " Hope this will help.
How do leaves get food water and nutrients and how does the sun do it?
Leaves gets water from the xylem delivering the water and nutrients from the roots. Next the phloem picks it up along with glucose and other nutrients and distributes it to the plant. The leaves absorb light energy and nutrients (from the sun) to actually make the food. Just remember xylem delivers, phloem picks up, roots get the water, and leaves make the food. Also remember the xylem and phloeam thing all goes on in the stem! 

How does salt effect plants?
Salt draws water away from the roots, it also effects the way the plant gets its nutrients. In water, salt breaks down into sodium and chloride. The sodium replaces the nutrients in the soil, and the chloride, effects the photosynthasis in the leaves. These causes could effect the plant's growth by stunting it, it could make the plant turn brown and wilt, and last but not least, the plant could possibly die.
Where does water come out of a plant?
From the leaves in the main by a process known as transpiration. Smaller quantities can be lost by the stem and roots. The loss of water through the stomata of the leaves makes way for new water from the roots which brings vital nutrients.
