Transport
In xylem the direction of transport is from root to shoot, whereas in phloem it is from shoot to root and every living plant part. It is because the root absorbs water and nutrients from soil and transport the same to the leaves for photosynthesis. The phloem cells transport the prepared food material to the entire plant body.
Mineral ions such as potassium or nitrate are taken into root hair cells using active transport. This process requires energy to move the ions against their concentration gradient into the cell.
The reason root's epiblema and root hair absorbs ions by spending energy is to transport the salts, or ions, from lower concentration areas to higher concentration areas so that the necessary water is being released throughout the plant.
active transport and osmosis
The leaf is dependent on the root for absorbing water and nutrients from the soil. The stem connects the leaf to the root, allowing for the transport of these essential resources to the leaf for photosynthesis and other metabolic processes. Together, the leaf, root, and stem form a cohesive system that supports the overall health and function of the plant.

Both
Both cell linings does active transport. Epitelial cells in root active transport nutrient such as ions into the root whereas epithelium cells in the small intestines.
Roots typically obtain minerals through the process of active transport, where they actively transport mineral ions from the soil into the root cells against a concentration gradient. This process requires energy in the form of ATP and specialized transport proteins in the cell membrane of the root cells.

Xylem
active transport
The xylem and phloem are the transport tubes in a plant's root. The xylem carries water and nutrients from the soil up to the rest of the plant, while the phloem transports sugars and other organic compounds produced during photosynthesis throughout the plant.
transport is a good one which means to carry across
Mineral salt enters the root thru active transport, after it enters, the mineral salt is passed on to another root cell through diffusion to move to the xylem tube then it moves up the tube via transpiration pull
