What else can I help you with?
What does a xylem found in?
xylem is found in plants and a type of cell which helps in transprotation of water and minerals work with other cells known as phloem
Growth tissue between xylem and phloem that produces additional xylem and phloem cell?
The tissue you are referring to is called vascular cambium. Vascular cambium is a meristematic tissue that is responsible for secondary growth in plants, producing additional xylem towards the inside and phloem towards the outside, contributing to the increase in girth of woody plants.
What tissue is responsible for forming secondary xylem and phloem in terrestrial perennial plants?
Xylem is part of the vascular tissue of plants, and the xylem and phloem together are grouped together as the stele (latin for 'pillar'). Xylem tissue is encased in lignin, the substance that creates the strength of wood, causing the protoplasm (living part of the cell) to die, and therefore be dead tissue; phloem is living tissue.
What tissues arise from the active cell division of the vascular cambium?
The vascular cambium undergoes active cell division to produce secondary xylem (wood) towards the inside of the stem and secondary phloem towards the outside. This results in the growth of woody tissues in trees and other woody plants.
What are the tubes in the stems of plants called?
there are two types of vessels or tubes in the stem of a plant; xylem vessels transport water and minerals from the roots, up through the stem of the plant. they are made up of dead cells, and in trees they are seen as wood phloem tubes carry the sap (sugars, cytoplasm, hormones, etc.) from the leaves to wherever they are needed for growth or repairs.
Nonvascular plants differ from all other land plants in that they?
Nonvascular plants lack specialized tissues for transporting water and nutrients throughout their bodies. This means they rely on diffusion to move water and nutrients from cell to cell. Vascular plants, by contrast, have specialized tissues like xylem and phloem for efficient transport.
Which organ contains xylem tissue?
Xylem cells are in the center of the plant. In a tree the "rings" are xylem. Xylem takes water and sugar from the roots up through the stem and out to the leaves and branches.
Plant cell layer that produces new phloem and xylem?
cambium
What does the tissue form?
Xylem is part of the vascular tissue of plants, and the xylem and phloem together are grouped together as the stele (latin for 'pillar'). Xylem tissue is encased in lignin, the substance that creates the strength of wood, causing the protoplasm (living part of the cell) to die, and therefore be dead tissue; phloem is living tissue.
The vascular tissue through witch food moves in some plants?
There are two types of vascular tissue in plants - the xylem and phloemXylem are elongated water conducting cells. The walls of the xylem are perforated and allow water and salts to pass though side ways from cell to cell.The walls of the xylem tissue are strengthened by deposition of lignin on them. This lignin makes the cell woody and impermeable. Xylem is the wood in woody plants that also help in supporting the plants.Phloem are living cells supported by companion cells. The end walls of these calls are perforated and allow organic solutes to flow to different parts of the plant.
Is Phloem is a pipe made of the cell wall of dead cells?
no, that's xylem
What distinguishes xylem and phloem from other tissues?
Xylem and phloem are vascular tissues. They are tissues that form tubes in plants. Xylem carries water and minerals contained in water that is drawn up from the ground through the roots. Phloem carries food produced in leaves down and up to other parts of plants. In trees, the phloem is located just inside the bark. It is a fairly narrow region. The part of trees called wood is the xylem. A layer called the vascular cambium is located between the xylem and phloem. It produces xylem to the inside and phloem to the outside. Growth rings in tree trunks are xylem. Plants like mosses, liverworts and horn worts don't have vascular tissues. Water, minerals, and food move around these plants very slowly. The movement is from one cell to another then another, and so on. Nonvascular plants are small and must grow in moist places. Vascular plants are larger because materials can move around in them quickly.
