Water is transported through xylem and carbohydrates through phloem
plants have two "tubes" running up and down the plant. One is called the xylem, which transports inorganic substances from the roots upwards, towards the leaves. The other is called the phloem, which transports organic substances manufactured in the leaves to all parts of the plant.
The sieve tubes of the phloem cells help to transport sugars. The stem of the plant has a layer of cells called phloem. Part of the phloem is made of sieve tubes that permit the flow of sugars solution through the influence of fluid pressure differential. The phloem also contains companion cells for the sieve tubes which aid in the transport of sugars to these tubes.
Phloem sap is a nutrient-rich, watery fluid that flows through the phloem tissue of a plant. It is responsible for transporting sugars, amino acids, hormones, and other organic molecules from the leaves, where they are produced through photosynthesis, to other parts of the plant. Phloem sap moves through the plant in a process called translocation.
Sugar is carried away from leaves through the phloem tissues. The phloem is a specialized vascular tissue that transports sugars, nutrients, and signaling molecules throughout the plant. Specifically, sugars produced during photosynthesis in the leaves are transported to other parts of the plant, such as storage organs or growing tissues, through the phloem.
food is transported through phloem....root get food through obsorbtion of water..then food is transported through a tissue name phloem
Xylem Tissue
If by "food" you mean the product of photosynthesis, this is transported through the plant (from the leaves and green parts) by the Phloem vessels - this is generally in a downward direction. If by "food" you mean nutrients that are absorbed from the soil, these are absorbed in solution by the roots and then transported in an upward direction throughout the plant by the Xylem vessels
Water is transported through xylem and carbohydrates through phloem
Glucose is transported as sucrose. It is non reducing and readily soluble.
plants have two "tubes" running up and down the plant. One is called the xylem, which transports inorganic substances from the roots upwards, towards the leaves. The other is called the phloem, which transports organic substances manufactured in the leaves to all parts of the plant.
There are two types of vascular tissue that aid in transport and there are two substances that are transported. Xylem transports water and dissolved minerals and phloem transports sugar (sap).
The sieve tubes of the phloem cells help to transport sugars. The stem of the plant has a layer of cells called phloem. Part of the phloem is made of sieve tubes that permit the flow of sugars solution through the influence of fluid pressure differential. The phloem also contains companion cells for the sieve tubes which aid in the transport of sugars to these tubes.
Xylem transports water up to the leaves.Water:Is absorbed from the soil through root hair cellsIs transported through the xylem vessels up the stem to the leaves.Evaporates from the leaves (transpiration)But the phloem transports nutrients to the leaves.

Nutrients as in sugars (products of photosynthesis) such as Sucrose, are transported in the Phloem, and water is transported in the Xylem vessels
