Vascular tissue is the term used to describe the internal system of tube-like structures in plants that transport water and nutrients throughout the plant. This tissue is made up of xylem and phloem, with xylem responsible for transporting water and minerals, and phloem responsible for transporting food.
it travels through the xylem (water) and the phloem minerals
No, mature xylem vessels do not contain a nucleus. They are long, tube-like structures that transport water and minerals through the plant, and as they mature, their contents are essentially dead, allowing for more efficient transport.
Water and minerals flow up through the roots of plants into the stem and leaves through a process known as transpiration. This process involves water being absorbed by the roots and then transported upward through the xylem, driven by evaporation and capillary action. Minerals are absorbed along with the water to support the plant's growth and metabolism.
Xylem transports water and minerals from the roots to other parts of the plant, such as the stems and leaves.

Xylem
Xylem moves water and minerals in one direction, upward from the roots to the stems and leaves through a process called transpiration.

The xylem transports water and minerals upward from the roots to the rest of the plant.
Xylem cells are responsible for transporting water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant. They also provide structural support to the plant.

Xylem transports water up to the leaves.Water:Is absorbed from the soil through root hair cellsIs transported through the xylem vessels up the stem to the leaves.Evaporates from the leaves (transpiration)But the phloem transports nutrients to the leaves.
