xylem transports water and minerals while phloem transports products of photosynthesis and other metabolic processes.
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.
Xylem is different from phloem structurally and functionally.Xylem consists of Tracheids, vessels and xylem parenchyma whereas phloem consists of Sieve tubes, companion cells and phloem parenchyma.Xylem conducts water and minerals to the leaves whereas phloem transports the prepared food from leaves to different parts of plant body.
xylem and phloem
The two vascular tissues found in the root and stem systems are xylem and phloem. Xylem is responsible for transporting water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant, while phloem is responsible for transporting nutrients and sugars produced through photosynthesis to different parts of the plant.
yes, xylem and phloem are tissues in the vascular system
.food is carried by phloem and water is carried by xylem.
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 and the phloem are known as the transportation system in vascular plants. The xylem transports water and nutrients while the phloem transports sugars.
Xylem contains Vessels, trachieds and xylem parenchyma Phloem consists of sieve tubes, companion cells and phloem parenchyma
the xylem transports water and the phloem transports organic substances.
The vascular cambium tissue makes xylem and phloem.
phloem and xylem (sorry different countries spell/ call them differently.. xylem is normally the same but phloem can be phylem or any variation of the two)
