Xylem caries water and disolved nutrients from the roots throughout the plant.
Phloem carries/ distributes the products of photosynthesis (mainly from the leaves) to the rest of the plants.
A good way to remember their function is:
Xylem is the upward conduction of water while phloem is the upward and downward conduction of food and minerals.
The Xylem and Phloem are found in the vascular tissue system in plant organisms. The Xylem transports water and mineral ions from the root to the rest of the plant, and the Phloem carries sugars and various other nutrients throughout the plant
Xylem and Phloem are found in the vascular tissue system in plant organisms. The xylem transports the mineral icons from the root to the rest of the plant, and the phloem carries the sugar and various other nutrients throughout the plant.
Xylem and Phloem are two conductive tissues found in most plants. Xylem is responsible for the movement of water and dissolved minerals within the plant (mainly from the roots to the leaves); Phloem is responsible for the transport of the products of photosynthesis throughout the plant.
Xylem transports water and ions. Phloem transports organic food.
The cambium is the layer of actively dividing cells between the xylem and phloem tissues of plants. It is responsible for the secondary growth of plants.
Phloem and xylem are the two main types of vascular tissue found in plants. Xylem is the tissue that mainly carries water, and a few minerals, in the system. Phloem is the tissue that carries photosynthetic materials through the plant.
Auxins are transported in the phloem, not the xylem.
Xylem and Phloem Xylem-transports water from the roots Phloem-transports food from the process of photosynthesis through other parts of the plant
Phloem is on the outside.
There is structural difference between xylem and phloem. This is because their function is also different. Had there been no difference in structure, how these could have performed different function?
the xylem transports water and the phloem transports organic substances.
Quite different in structure and function. The xylem, which is dead material, carries water from the roots to the leaves. The phloem, which is living material, carries synthesized sugars from the leaves to where they are needed in the plant.
differ in such a way that xylem transport water while phloem transport food and nutrients
Structure is related to its function. When the structure of something changes, so does its function. And when its function changes, the structure is bound to change too.

The cambium is the layer of actively dividing cells between the xylem and phloem tissues of plants. It is responsible for the secondary growth of plants.
A plants vascular structure is made up of xylem and phloem.
Both xylem and phloem are vascular tissues found in a plant. Xylem is a tubular structure which is responsible for water transport from the roots towards all of the parts of the plant. Phloem is also a tubular structure but is responsible for the transportation of food and other nutrients needed by plant. Xylem imports water and minerals while Phloem transports water and food. Xylem exists as non-living tissue at maturity, but phloem is living cells.
The xylem generally transports water throughout the plant (and some nutrients) while the phloem transports soluble organic material made during photosynthesis.
They are made up of xylem and phloem. The xylem's primary function is to transport water, while the phloem transports nutrients.
