The flow of water flowing into the xylem is regulated by?
pericycle
Water and minerals flow up through the?
Tracheids and vessels of xylem
How do leaf cells obtain their water supply?
the roots make the water flow up from the ground through the xylem.
What is a specialized tissue in a plant that allows for the flow of water?
xylem
Where does the xylem tube carry water too?
The xylem tube carries the water from the roots to all parts of the plant, from bottom to top.This works because1 the water evaporates out of the leaves and so the water pressure causes the water to flow upwards.2 if the other parts of the plant have a lower concentration of water in them, the water will flow into them through osmosis. (water flowing from a region of high concentration to a region of lower concentration through a semipermeable membrane like the plant cells.)The phloem carries food from the leaves (and other food producing parts of the plant) to the rest of the plant, from top to bottom.
The flow of water flowing into the xylem is regulated by?
pericycle

Tracheids and vessels of xylem
Where in the plant does water flow through?
Xylem tubes of vascular bundles of stems. :)
What direction does the xylem transport water?
The flow is from the roots to the plant so the flow goes up.
How do leaf cells obtain their water supply?
the roots make the water flow up from the ground through the xylem.
What is xylem flow in plants?
Xylem transports water throughout the plant.
How does water flow up a plant?
Water flows through a plant with the xylem when it collects water and the nutrients in a plant.
Do water and minerals travel through xylem tubes from the roots to the leaves?
Yes, water and other minerals flow upwards through xylem tubes from the roots to the leaves so that the leaves can combine it with sunlight, CO2, and chlorophyll, to do photosynthesis (the process of making food for the plant.
Why do xylem vessels have pits etc?
Pits are essentially holes in the xylem walls. Xylem walls are lignified by lignin, a material impermeable to war. The pits allow water to flow between xylem vessels of the plant - this is known as cross flow.
What is the function of xylem cell?
Xylem is a type of cell that distributes water throughout a plant. They have specialized cells that help water flow up a plant, to get where it is needed.
How can water flow up the xylem tube while gravity is pulling it down?
adhesion, the water molecules are attracted and therefore "climb" the xylem walls
Which is a specialize tissue in a plant that allows for the flow of water throughout the plant?
xylem
