They are both types of vascular tissue in plants, but phloem
moves food down the plant from the leaves to the roots, whereas xylem moves water from the roots up to the rest of the plant tissue.
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?
Xylem contains Vessels, trachieds and xylem parenchyma Phloem consists of sieve tubes, companion cells and phloem parenchyma
A layer of cambium is found between xylem and phloem in dicot stem.
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 and phloem are both in plants, xylem are like he veins in a plant, they carry water to the top of the plant
No, the xylem and phloem are not grouped together in the cambium. The cambium is a layer of cells in between the xylem and phloem that is responsible for secondary growth in plants. It gives rise to new xylem and phloem cells as the plant grows.
xylem transports water and minerals while phloem transports products of photosynthesis and other metabolic processes.

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.
The layer between the xylem and phloem is called the cambium. The cambium is a type of meristem tissue that is responsible for producing new xylem and phloem cells, contributing to the growth of the plant.
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.
