Xylem vessels and trachieds
Wiki User
∙ 11y ago
The tissue responsible for moving water up from the plant roots is called xylem. Xylem consists of specialized cells called tracheids and vessel elements that form a network of interconnected tubes. These tubes allow water to be transported upwards through the plant, from the roots to the leaves.

How do plants get water from their environment?
The water moves into transport tissue/tubes in the roots called xylem if the plant is vascular. Nonvascular plants have no xylem. Water moves from cell to cell in nonvascular plants. In both cases, the type of movement is called osmosis.
What type of tissue is responsible for bringing water from the soil to the leaves?
Xylem is a vascular tissue in plants the conveys water from the roots to the leaves.
In a plant what type of tissue is responsible for transporting water and nutrients?
there are connective tissues in plants which helps them to transport water and nutrients.xylem helps plants ,in transporting water and minerals . and phloem helps plants to transport food from one place to another.
What level of organization is xylem classified?
Xylem is classified as a tissue
What are the components of a vascular system in plants?
The vascular system in plants is composed of two main tissues.Xylem. This vascular tissue conducts water from the roots to the leaves.Phloem. This vascular tissue conducts the sugars manufactured in photosynthesis from the leaves to wherever in the plant the sugars are needed.
How do plants get water from their environment?
The water moves into transport tissue/tubes in the roots called xylem if the plant is vascular. Nonvascular plants have no xylem. Water moves from cell to cell in nonvascular plants. In both cases, the type of movement is called osmosis.
What are the different between xylem and phloem?
They are both types of vascular tissue in plants, but phloem moves food down the plant from the leaves to the roots, whereas xylem moves water from the roots up to the rest of the plant tissue.
What has tansport water from plants roots to its leaves what?
Water through the vascular tissue called xylem.
What vascular tissue in plants transport water and dissolved nutrients?
roots
What tissues are involved as water moves to the xylem from the time it is absorbed by the roots?
There are two tissues that are involved in water absorption from roots to the xylem. Ground tissue and xylem tissue are the tissues that the water has to pass through.
What is water is transported from a plants roots to its leaves in a tissue called?
answer is the vascular system
What type of tissue is responsible for bringing water from the soil to the leaves?
Xylem is a vascular tissue in plants the conveys water from the roots to the leaves.
Which tissue transport water in plants?
phloem transporta food from the leaves to the roots[as weel as the of the of the plant]
Is their a plant that actually moves on ground If not water?
yes, there are plants that move to find water but usually it is only the roots that grow twards water
How does water travel witin a plant?
Assuming you mean vascular plants the transportation system here are the vascular tissues. The xylem moves water from the roots to the leaves. The phloem moves sugars, carbohydrates, from the leaves to everywhere in the plant needing these sugars.
In a plant what type of tissue is responsible for transporting water and nutrients?
there are connective tissues in plants which helps them to transport water and nutrients.xylem helps plants ,in transporting water and minerals . and phloem helps plants to transport food from one place to another.
What does a xylem cell do?
Xylem cells carry water and nutrients from the roots to other parts of a plant.
