- Walls made from dead lignin cells, which waterproof and support walls even if water levels are low in plants.
- Narrow tubes so water column doesn't break easily.
- Pits in walls allow water to move from one cell to another.
Xylem is a complex tissue, as it consists of both parenchymatous and sclerenchymatous cells. Xylem consists of living and non-living cells. Xylem is composed of four elements- (a) tracheids (b) vessels (c) xylem parenchyma (d) xylem fibres.
Xylem is described as a tissue because it consists of one or more layers of cells.
It actually is a tissue in plants
Xylem is a tissue found in higher plants.Water and mineral conduction is the job.
Because xylem is a vessel that water travels through.
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.
Xylem is classified as a tissue
This is the vascular tissue xylem.
Secondary xylem
Transports water and nutrients upwards
The most distinctive cells found in xylem are the tracheary elements, that is tracheids and vessel elements. However, the xylem is a complex tissue of plants, which means that it includes more than one type of cell. This is why it is a tissue not a cell.
Because xylem is a vessel that water travels through.
Xylem
Xylem and phloem, they are two types of vascular tissue.
In Angiosperms , it is xylem vessels ( proto and meta xylem together ) , Xylem sclerenchyma and xylem parenchyma ; together form Xylem tissue ( That is why xylem is called a compound tissue ). In Gymnosperms , xylem vessels are replaced by Xylem tracheids . All other tings are almost the same .
xylem
there is a vascular tissue called as xylem vessel through which the water flows from the root to the stem, branches, leaves.
The vascular cambium tissue makes xylem and phloem.
xylem vessel is a vessel in plants that transport water and minerals from the roots to parts of the plant where it is needed, through transpiration and turgor pressure in roots.
Tissues that make up of xylem are xylem vessels, tracheids, sclerenchyma tissue (fibres) and parenchyma tissue.
Tulips have the least amount of xylem tissue.
