How does phloem and xylem work in flowers?
Xylem carries water up from the roots to the leaves for the process of photosynthesis. Phloem carries the food/nutrients down to the roots.
What vascular tissue carries food from the leaves to the roots?
The phloem carries the food down from the leaves. Not to be confused with xylem, which carries water up to the leaves.
Carry water to the leaves and carry sugar and oxygen from the leaves to the living parts of the plant that need it?
Xylem carries water from the roots to toward the leaves. Phloem carries sugar and nutrients from the leaves toward the roots. Oxygen is transported by diffusion, NOT by the liquid transport system.
What tissue carries material from a plant roots to it leaves?
Phloem and xylem tissue carries material from a plant's roots to its leaves.
What tissue carries material from a plants roots its leaves?
Xylem tissue carries material from a plant's roots to it's leaves
What structure in the plant carries nutrients from the leaves to the rest of the plant?
The question is incomplete. No options are given (for which of the following) to answer the question.
What Carries water from roots?
The xylem. The phloem carries organic nutrients.
What parts of a plant absorb water and nutrients and which part carries these materials throughout the plants?
The roots of the plant absorb water and nutrients from the soil. The xylem, a type of tissue in the plant, carries these materials upward from the roots to the rest of the plant, including the stem, leaves, and flowers.
What carries water to the roots and food back to the roots?
Two different types of tissue: the xylem carries water and the phloem carries nutrients.
