grow, take-in nutrients from the environment, transport materials through their bodies, produce chemicals.

Explanation:

In order for a plant to survive, it would need to grow and develop, take-in nutrients from the environment, transport materials through its body, as well as produce chemicals within the body.

Growth and development are important for any living organism and without it, an organism is as good as dead. With continuous growth, an organism is able to replace worn-out or damaged cells of the body with new ones.

Plants will also need to take-in nutrients from the environment in order to meet their metabolic requirements. Nutrients are essential for several metabolic processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, excretion, etc.

Materials are also being constantly transported round the body of a plant in order to meet some metabolic processes requirements. For example, manufactured food must be transported from the source of manufacturing to other parts of the body in order to meet nutritional requirements.

Plants also need to constantly produce chemicals within their bodies in order to survive. One of the most important chemicals that plants need to produce is carbohydrate which is necessary for energy generation within the body. Carbohydrate is produced by photosynthesis in plants.
