What is the function of a vascular tissue?
i think the answer would be that if its in plants the vascular tissue includes Xylem and Phloem which we know that its for 1) transportation and distrubition of nutrients in plants 2) absorption of nutrients ans minerals
What are the features of xylem?
Xylem is a complex permanent tissue that is made up of four types of cells or elements. These are:- 1. Tracheids 2. Vessels 3. Xylem parenchyma 4. Xylem fibres Among these, only Xylem Fibres are dead and the rest three are living. Xylem is also known as wood. Tracheids and Vessels have 5 types of lignifications: annular (in the form of rings), spiral (as a helix), reticulate (in the form of network), scalariform (as a ladder), and pitted (with small and circular unthickened areas called pits).
What key cells are in xylem?
Tissues that make up of xylem are xylem vessels, tracheids, sclerenchyma tissue (fibres) and parenchyma tissue.
What tissue moves water up from plants roots?
The tissue responsible for moving water up from the plant roots is called xylem. Xylem consists of specialized cells called tracheids and vessel elements that form a network of interconnected tubes. These tubes allow water to be transported upwards through the plant, from the roots to the leaves.
What is a xylem vessel for?
Xylem vessels are water conducting tubes of the plant
What tissue in plants transports sugars and water?
Phloem vessels,the sieve tubes.
What is the interal system of interconnected tubes and vessels in some terrestrial plants?
Vascular tissues.
How are specialized cells of xylem and phloem suited for their functions?
Xylem vessels are adapted to carry out their function in several ways. Phloem Specialized cells called COMPANION CELLS are closely associated with the sieve tubes. Each contains a nucleus, numerous mitochondria and other organelles that are largely absent from the sieve tubes.
Do plants with tubes and vessels that carry water and nutrients to the plant allow them to grow tall are called?
tree
Cells that are the main water-conducting cells of a plant are?
tracheids and vessel members, also known as "Xylem tubes"
Why is soil useful for living things?
It provides nutrients and minerals for plants, which is carried up from the root of the plant to it's leaves by the xylem vessels pronounced (Zy.lum) Xylem vessels are long tubes in the plants cells!
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.
