Most plants obtain their nutrients through the roots in the soil, which are covered thin, absorbent tissue. Nutrients are absorbed and delivered to the plant through a vascular system that transports it in a nutritious fluid (sap) throughout the plant. Additionally, many plants benefit from a symbiotic relationship (a relationship where both parties benefit) with microbes in the soil that live on or in parts of the roots that help digest, breakdown, and convert nutrients in the soil into forms that the plant can absorb and use. Hope this helps!
