Hi! For the creeper question, would anyone know if the stem of the tree or both stems of the tree and the creeper plant were cut off?

DS said only the stem of the creeper was shown to be cut, in the diagram.

MCQ 7. My DS said the 2 plants: 1 tree with 1 creeper on it. The vine of the creeper is cut at the bottom. Why the upper of the creeper died.

DS ans : no water.
