While xylem transports only in one direction...up, the phloem can move nutrients in either direction. The phloem gets nutrients from the roots to take up to the leaves to be used in photosynthesis and moves sugars and other nutrients produced from the photosynthetic process down to the roots for storage.
Xylem carries water up from the roots to the leaves for the process of photosynthesis. Phloem carries the food/nutrients down to the roots.
Phloem .
Xylem tissue is used mostly for transporting water from roots to stems and leaves but also transports other dissolved compounds. Phloem is responsible for transporting food produced from photosynthesis from leaves to non-photosynthesizing parts of a plant such as roots and stems.
Phloem tissue is the tissue in plant stems that carry materials down from the top of the plant to the bottom. Xylem tissue is the tissue in plant stems that carry materials up from the bottom of the plant to the top. An easy way to remember this is: phloem=LOWem. Xylem=HIGHlem.
Xylem moves materials and water up. Phloem carries sugar down into the roots.
The phloem carries the food down from the leaves. Not to be confused with xylem, which carries water up to the leaves.
Xylem carries water up from the roots to the leaves for the process of photosynthesis. Phloem carries the food/nutrients down to the roots.
While xylem transports only in one direction...up, the phloem can move nutrients in either direction. The phloem gets nutrients from the roots to take up to the leaves to be used in photosynthesis and moves sugars and other nutrients produced from the photosynthetic process down to the roots for storage.
Two different types of tissue: the xylem carries water and the phloem carries nutrients.
Phloem .
Xylem carries water and mineral nutrient ions from the roots up into the tree. Phloem carries sucrose, the "food" made as a result of photosynthesis, throughout the plant.
Xylem tissue is used mostly for transporting water from roots to stems and leaves but also transports other dissolved compounds. Phloem is responsible for transporting food produced from photosynthesis from leaves to non-photosynthesizing parts of a plant such as roots and stems.
The Phloem tissue carries the products of photosynthesis from the leaves to the rest of the plant
Phloem tissue is the tissue in plant stems that carry materials down from the top of the plant to the bottom. Xylem tissue is the tissue in plant stems that carry materials up from the bottom of the plant to the top. An easy way to remember this is: phloem=LOWem. Xylem=HIGHlem.
roots hold a plant in place of the soil. like roots ,stems have vascular tissue. this helps support plants .the xylem and phloem in stems connect to those same tissues in the roots .together, the move food for the plant between roots and leaves.
Xylem moves materials and water up. Phloem carries sugar down into the roots.
While xylem transports only in one direction...up, the phloem can move nutrients in either direction. The phloem gets nutrients from the roots to take up to the leaves to be used in photosynthesis and moves sugars and other nutrients produced from the photosynthetic process down to the roots for storage.
