Yes, xylem vessels carry water and other minerals from the root to the leaves. The movement of the water through the xylem vessels occur because of three processes: capillarity, transpiration pull and root pressure.

Xylem's main function is to carry water with dissolved minerals.
Sugar (such as sucrose) is carried by phloem.

What is the name for the tubes on a stem that carry food?
xylem and phloem
Tubes that carry water and minerals in plants?
Xylem and Phloem exist both in the Plant's roots and it's upper parts.
What does the stem carry?
The stem carry's water from the roots to the leaves.
What are the vessels in plants that carry water and nutrients upward?
I think it's the Xylem. They absorb water from the roots, and run through the stem. Then, they carry the water in the vessels to the whole plants, and out through the plants through the leaves stomata.
What are the jobs of phloem and xylem?
xylem is when food goes through the stem of the plant to the leaf . phloem is when it takes tissue and water back to the roots of the plant.
How water and sucrose are transported in flowering plants?
in the xylem and phloem respectivly

What is the purpose of the xylem and phloem?
transport
What are tubes that carry fluids from the roots up to leaves of vascular plants?
xylem and phloem
Tubes that carry water and minerals in plants?
Xylem and Phloem exist both in the Plant's roots and it's upper parts.
What does the stem carry?
The stem carry's water from the roots to the leaves.
Which plant groups have xylem tubes?
the two types of plants that carry xylem are your mum and dad
What are the similarities between xylem and phloem?
xylem and phloem are both in plants, xylem are like he veins in a plant, they carry water to the top of the plant
Do vascular plants have xylem?
Yup, they also have a phloem. The xylem helps carry the water from the roots to the plant.
What plants cells that are long and hollow transport water throughout the plant?
there are 2 types of cells in plants that carry water and nutrient around them. phloem cells most notably transport sucrose while xylem transports water.
What are plants with tissues that carry water?
its xylem! i had a test on it! :)
