What mature xylem vessels in a woody plant has?
Xylem vessel is basically for transporting water, if the cells had other parts in it (like cytoplasm, and etc), the vessel will not be able to support itself and will not be strong enough to carry water. Therefore a mature Xylem vessel must not have any other parts of the cells other than the cell wall. Basically a cell without its other part is a dead cell. So the Mature xylem vessel is a dead tissue which is enhanced with thick lignified cellulose walls, to support or give extra strength to the vessels. To summarize it, the Mature Xylem Vessel in a woody plant has only a cell wall, long hollow vessels with thick lignified cellulose walls, which are dead tissues used to transporting water from the roots to all parts of the plant.
What is the function of the vascular cambian in the woody stems?
produces xylem and phloem
How are the inside of the soft stem and the woody stem different?
They have different texture andstyle/ The woody stem has massive xylem tissue, mostly secondary in origin, the soft stem has a very little amount of stele.
What is the substance that makes a plant woody?
The substance which makes plants woody is lignin. The wood part of plants ( bark in trees ) is made entirely of xylem which is the transport vessel that carries water from the roots to the leaves. Since wood is made of lignified xylem which is very hard, it makes it woody and hard.
Why do tulips have the least amount of xylem tissues?
Tulips have the least amount of xylem tissue.
What is a woody tissue of a plant?
Xylem
Do Woody stems have both xylem and phloem tissues.?
Xylem and phloem are the two types of transport tissue found in vascular plants. Woody stems contain both xylem and phloem.
How is material conduct in xylem?
woody and water
Which type of plant has the least amount of xylem tissue?
There are different kinds of stems some are woody and some are non-woody. Woody stems have alote of xylem tissue. Trees and shrubs have woody stems. The woody of conifers such as pine tree is soft wood.

What part of the plant forms the wood in woody stems?
The xylem
In a woody dicot stem the xylem is divided into?
Sapwood and Heartwood.
What is the function of the vascular cambian in the woody stems?
produces xylem and phloem
What are dead xylem and phloem cells of a woody plant called?
PITH
What is the principal difference between mature xylem and mature phloem cells?
Gjhgy
How are the inside of the soft stem and the woody stem different?
They have different texture andstyle/ The woody stem has massive xylem tissue, mostly secondary in origin, the soft stem has a very little amount of stele.
What part of a woody stem form rings that indicate the tree's age?
The xylem.
