What characteristic does not describe cardiac muscle tissue?

Which is NOT a characteristic of a plant's vascular tissue It transports water and food inside the plant or It supports the plant's stems and leaves or It exposes the plant's leaves to the sun or It t?
"it transports water and food inside the plant" is a characteristic as xylem transports water and the phloem transports food in the form of sucrose. "it support the plants stems and leaves" is a characteristic of vascular tissue because the arrangement of the xylem and phloem provide it with strength and therefore support. the last one is then the wrong characteristic.

And, if it is rod shaped and has multiple nuclei, then it is skeletal muscle tissue. Another characteristic of both cardiac and muscle tissue is that it is striated with darker and lighter bands.
