What is a xylem vessel for?
Xylem vessels are water conducting tubes of the plant
Do vascular plants have vessels?
vascular plants are plants that have vessels
What are the vessels in plants that carry water and nutrients upward?
I think it's the Xylem. They absorb water from the roots, and run through the stem. Then, they carry the water in the vessels to the whole plants, and out through the plants through the leaves stomata.
How is support attained in herbaceous plants?
through the xylem vessels
What are the tubes in the stems of plants called?
there are two types of vessels or tubes in the stem of a plant; xylem vessels transport water and minerals from the roots, up through the stem of the plant. they are made up of dead cells, and in trees they are seen as wood phloem tubes carry the sap (sugars, cytoplasm, hormones, etc.) from the leaves to wherever they are needed for growth or repairs.
What kind of plant uses xylem and phloem for their transportation system?
All plants use xylem and phloem vessels.
What plants have no xylem vessels?
Mosses

How does xylem tracheids and vessels help the plants when they are placed end to end like tubes?

Why is soil useful for living things?
It provides nutrients and minerals for plants, which is carried up from the root of the plant to it's leaves by the xylem vessels pronounced (Zy.lum) Xylem vessels are long tubes in the plants cells!
What plant have xylem and phloem tube?
Vascular plants. Xylem and Phloem are the vascular system of plants. If you compare it with humans, they're the blood vessels...sort of Xylem transports water, Phloem transports nutrients
Do plants have anything in their veins?
water and sugars are transported in the xylem and phloem vessels of the plant
Do vascular plants have xylem and phloem?
Yes, but some plants lack certain types of xylem and phloem cells such as vessel elements and tracheids. Tracheids have been lost in Wolffia, an aquatic plant, and vessels are not present in all conifers.
