The correct answer is - Roots allow plants to obtain water and nutrients, while shoots allow plants to obtain gases and sunlight.

Explanation:

Plants have two major parts of the body normally root and shoot. roots are the parts of plants that usually present under the ground and absorbed the essential nutrients and minerals for the life of the plant. Water is also absorbed by the roots that are used in the various processes such as transpiration and photosynthesis.

The shoot includes stem and leaves and responsible for the exchange of gases, particularly taking in carbon dioxide and removes oxygen with help of stomata. These also absorbs sunlight with help of chlorophyll present on the leaves.

c. earths continental crust is thicker than its lithosphere.

because, the lithosphere is the outermost layer of the earth/ 100 km thick and is defined by its machanical properties.the lithosphere contains oceanic and continental crust that varies in age and thickness across locations and geologic time. the lithosphere is the coolest layer of the earth in terms of temperature. the term lithosphere should not be confused with the use of "geosphere" which is used to indicate all of earth systems, including the atmosphere, hydrosphere   and biosphere. the surface of the earth can be divided into the continental crust and the oceanic crust.   the continental crust is made mostly of granite while the oceanic crust is made of basalt. the average thickness of the continental crust is 25 miles and the average thickness of the oceanic crust is 5 miles.   three types of rock, igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic, make up the surface of the earth. that's why 3 option is preferable.
