In one or two sentences, explain how a disease that harms the roots of a flowering plant would affect the plant's ability to survive.

I would say that a disease that would harm the root could possibly force it to not take in water. It could destroy the root itself in which would cause the whole plant to die. The disease could even stop it from reproducing so that new flowers can bloom.
