Phloem - a protective layer made up of tiny tubes that transport the sugars from the leaves to the rest of the tree.
Xylem - the main part of the tree trunk made up of tiny tubes which transport water and minerals from the roots up the trunk and branches to the leaves.
phloem carries organic nutrients to all parts of the plant where required.Its mainly concerned with transport of soluble organic material.
Phloem cells are __________.
a.
dead at maturity and are used to transport water from the roots to the rest of the plant
b.
dead at maturity and are used to transport sugars throughout the plant
c.
alive at maturity and are used to transport water from the roots to the rest of the plant
d.
alive at maturity and are used to transport sugars throughout the plant
These vascular tissues generally do this;
Xylem:
Carries water from the roots to the leaves by means of, basically, transpiration.
Phloem:
Carries the sugar manufactured in the leaves throughout the plant to wherever it is needed.
xylem carry water through the plants from roots to shoots phloem carry sugar and nutrients
Xylem transports water and dissolved minerals up the plant and phloem transports carbohydrates up and down the plant
Xylem transports water up the plants from the soil. Phloem transports sugar up and down the plant
